Henry Heerup (1907–1993) was a central figure in Danish modernism and closely associated with both the Linien group and CoBrA. He worked across a wide range of media – from found-object assemblages and stone sculpture to painting, printmaking, and drawing – always with a unique eye for the poetry of everyday life. His art merges humour and gravity, myth and reality, circling around life’s intimate stories, allotment gardens, symbols, and human connections.
