Erik Hansen – a dark painter

Erik Hansen

“Erik Hansen – Esbjergs mørkemaler” (Erik Hansen – a dark painter) was published January 29th 2022 in Janusbygningen in Tistrup, Denmark.
It´s a book I have written about the art and life of expressionist painter Erik Hansen (1914-1970).

Although Erik Hansen was an original artist from a bygone era, I believe that his life and art, as described in the book, has such universal features, that many artists today will be able to reflect in it.

Publisher

The publisher is HRYMFAXE, and the book is for sale from JANUS – Vestjyllands Kunstmuseum, Tistrup, Denmark.
