TERRA IGNOTA
— ÅKE E:SON LINDMAN
ART
The chemigrams of Åke E: son Lindman swap the literalness of his highly regarded architecture photos for the uncertain procedure of creating images without a camera or a subject. Using chemicals directly on light-sensitive paper, Terra Ignota, Latin for “foreign lands”, is a series of dreamy landscape-like images. See the special insert in Ark Journal Volume V.

CASE STUDY
— MONUMENTAL MONOCHROME
The enduring aesthetic of Danish furniture has always been entirely in step with other contemporary design practices, ceramics, glass, textiles, and particularly architecture.
LANDON METZ
Space is important to Landon Metz. In his art, pools of colour float across canvas leaving vast areas of unprimed fabric. In his studio the same sense of space – and the importance of the negative – is evident in the blanks between sparsely scattered furniture and plants.
CASE STUDY
— PERIOD PIECES
In the unique surroundings of the house created by Danish sculptor Rikard Axel Poulsen (1887-1972) furniture, lighting and homewares by contemporary designers exhibit their serene poise, the avant-garde flanked by the archaic to create layers of history.
