AAGE DAMGAARD'S TREASURE TROVE - an artistic playground

17.09.11 - 01.01.12

From floor to ceiling. In every exhibition space and in the foyer. An exuberant wealth of art of all kinds and genres. This autumn HEART presents, for the first time ever, the full scope of the rich collection of art collected by the shirt manufacturer and art patron Aage Damgaard. Familiar figures such as Jorn, Heerup, and Gadegaard are exhibited side by side with works that have never been on display before.

With this exhibition HEART wishes to emphasise the collection’s significance for both the museum and the Herning area:
An artistic playground. For workers. For the common people. This is a socially interactive space, by which I mean that 70% of the art that hangs here was also created here, and this is something completely unique, something that no other museum can match.
The artist Robert Jacobsen quoted in Herning Dagblad, 20.05.77
