Hanne Varming (b. Copenhagen 1939, d. s.p. 2022) Portrait of Karen Blixen. Signed H.V. Unique. Patinated bronze. H. 40 cm. W. 25 cm. Draft for a medallion for the Authors' Association. Hanne Varming's sculptures are well-known in public spaces, where her honest depictions of humans blend into the cityscape - as a commentary on our lives, but also a call for interaction and reflection. In Varming's works, the process itself is an important part of the work and the artistic expression. The modeling in clay is absolutely central, as she deliberately allows this special modeling to be seen in the bronze. She doesn't try to polish or smooth out. On the contrary, she lets the creation process shine through, whether it is larger monumental sculptures, smaller figures or, as here the author Karen Blixen's well-known counter-fee. This lot is part of our ongoing theme: Pioneering Women Artists 1850-1950 This lot is subject to Artist's Royalty. Artist’s Royalty In accordance with Danish copyright law, an additional royalty fee is to be paid for the purchase of works by contemporary Danish artist and some international artists who are either still alive, or who died within the last 70 years. × Read more Condition Original condition.
