This original Henning Damgård Sørensen advertising poster is for Danske Statsbaner (DSB), or Danish State Railways from a popular campaign in 1982. It's an abstract piece using simple shapes with bold colours, circles and other geometric shapes. Damgaard Sorensen cleverly shows us the inner workings of a train using only bold colours and simple shapes which appear to be moving.
Printed by Permild & Rosengreen, in Denmark
Dimensions: 39.5 in x 25.5 in (100 cm x 62 cm)
Condition: some rough edges, slight edge fade, glossy, see photos.
Henning Damgård-Sørensen was a self-taught artist. He debuted at the Artists' Autumn Exhibition in 1950 and works in a non-figurative, concrete way with his art. His works consist of bright colors and simple, geometric shapes. It gives a sense of rhythm and movement that were popularised from his Danish Rail DSB posters from 1982.
What is special about exhibition and gallery posters is that they are an affordable way of getting good, unique art on the walls, as although it is not an artists original, neither is it something that has been mass reproduced.
Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the charm.
These posters are sent as unframed. They are delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
