The Danish works of Giersing, Lundstrøm, Weie and others, reveal new sides of themselves in the exhibition, Flower and Cigar, when Kunstforeningen Gl. Strand presents collections of Danish modernism.

It is experimental paintings with focus on the painting’s artistic means such as: form, colour, line and space inspired by the avant-garde movements around Europe.

The works in the exhibition represent a new, expressive painting from the period of 1908-41. At the same time, the figure paintings, landscapes and still life paintings tell about female and male fantasies and idealizations.
