Large exhibition about early 20th Century Danish sculptor Kai Nielsen, simultaneously at The Glyptotek in Copenhagen and Faaborg Museum in Southern Denmark.

The show features a large range of full-scale sculptures as well as hundreds of figurines.

The many custom-made podia and wall bases were designed with expressive mouldings, inspired by the works of the artist.

For reference, here is a photo of the sculpture “The Fåhræus Girl” shown in Kai Nielsen’s workshop.

Additionally we designed a range of sturdy tables, also inspired by the sculptor’s workshop.

For the final room of the exhibition at The Glyptotek, a huge brick table was constructed, displaying a vast range of Kai Nielsen’s figurines. The bricks were generously sponsored by Petersen Tegl.

The checkerboard brick pattern was inspired by Carl Petersen’s ceramic mosaic floors at Faaborg Museum, drawing below:
