Velkommen til moderne sommer-auktion hos Bruun Rasmussen Endnu en gang har vi den store glæde at kunne invitere til eftersyn og auktion over moderne kunst - i et rigt udvalg af dennes mange afskygninger. I forlængelse af den store efterspørgsel på Cobra-kunst, som karakteriserede marts måneds Bredgade-auktion, præsenterer også denne sommerauktion et stærkt udbud af Cobra-værker. Grundstammen er udvalgte værker fra revisor Tage Andersens samling med udsøgte arbejder af Asger Jorn, Pierre Alechinsky, Karel Appel og Corneille. Disse suppleres bl.a. af markante Molesmes-malerier af Carl-Henning Pedersen fra 1980 erne samt flere karakteristiske maskekompositioner af Egill Jacobsen. Et andet væsentligt fokuspunkt er Finn Falkersbys samling, kat. nr. 174-193, koncentreret om den tyske Gruppe Spur med kunstnere som Heimrad Prem, Helmut Sturm, Hans-Peter Zimmer samt nordiske surrealister som Wilhelm Freddie, Rita Kernn-Larsen og Elsa Thoresen. I spidsen for afsnittet om klassisk kunst skal især Hans Scherfigs Badende elefanter (1964), J. F. Willumsens lysende Kvinde på Markuspladsen (1940) og flere gode værker af Jens Søndergaard fremhæves. Afsnittet for samtidskunst er som vanligt stærkt besat med fremragende værker af Michael Kvium, heriblandt ikke mindst maleriet Virkeligheden. Arvtagerbillede (1992) - et søsterbillede til maleriet Olien. Arvtagerbillede (1992) som i foråret satte prisrekord for Kvium med et hammerslag på en million kroner. Kvium har følgeskab af John Kørner og Kathrine Ærtebjerg, som begge er repræsenteret med flere værker. Blandt auktionens internationale emner er det denne gang værd at kaste et ekstra blik på bl.a. finske Kain Tappers skulpturer, et 1960 er-værk af italienske Achille Perilli og ikke mindst et meget flot papirarbejde af amerikanske Sam Francis, hidrørende fra Louisiana-stifter Knud W. Jensens Samling. God fornøjelse!
Welcome to the modern art summer auction at Bruun Rasmussen Once again we have the great pleasure of inviting you to the viewing and subsequent auction of a wide and variegated spectre of modern artworks. Responding to the great demand for works by the CoBrA group, evident not least at our auction in March, this year s summer auction will feature outstanding artworks by CoBrA artists. The main body of works at auction will be from the collection of Auditor Tage Andersen, including select works by Asger Jorn, Pierre Alechinsky, Karel Appel and Corneille. The auction will also feature seminal works by Carl-Henning Pedersen from the Molesmes series (1980s) and characteristic mask compositions by Egill Jacobsen. Other influential highlights include works from the collection of Finn Falkersby, lots nos. 174-193, mainly centred on works by the German Spur group, including artists Heimrad Prem, Helmut Sturm, Hans-Peter Zimmer, as well as works by Scandinavian surrealists such as Wilhelm Freddie, Rita Kernn-Larsen and Elsa Thoresen. Classically modern Danish pictorial art will include Hans Scherfig s Badende elefanter, 1964 ( Bathing Elephants ), J. F. Willumsen s radiant Kvinde på Markuspladsen, 1940 ( Woman at the Market Place ) and several excellent works by Jens Søndergaard. The contemporary section will include eminent works by Michael Kvium, not least the painting Virkeligheden. Arvtagerbillede, 1992 ( Reality. Heir Image ). This painting is twinned with his work entitled Olien. Arvtagerbillede, 1992 ( The Oil. Heir Image ), which set the record for paintings by Kvium at the spring auction this year, reaching a hammer price of 1 million Danish kroner. Kvium will be joined by John Kørner and Kathrine Ærtebjerg, who are both represented with more works. Of unique interest among works by international artists are those by Finnish sculptor Kain Tapper and Italian artist Achille Perilli, who is represented with a work from the 1960s. The auction also includes a splendid paper artwork by American artist Sam Francis from the collection of the founder of the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Knud W. Jensen. Enjoy!

THE TAGE ANDERSEN COLLECTION Tage Andersen Samlingen Tage Andersen (1918-2008) var en markant skikkelse i dansk erhvervsliv, og spillede en afgørende rolle i revisorbranchen i Danmark i 1960'erne og 1970'erne. Som statsautoriseret revisor følte han meget for revisionsstudiet og satte sit tydelige præg på dette i 60'erne. Men sideløbende med en succesfuld erhvervskarriere var Tage Andersen også en passioneret samler af blandt andet udsøgt kunst, indbo og vin. Det var dog især elektriske modeltog, der optog Tage Andersen, og han fik gennem en årrække opbygget en imponerende samling. Da han som 75-årig gik på pension, fik han tid til at dyrke sin store lidenskab, og det er denne helt særlige samling af effekter, som vi nu kan præsentere i moderne katalog del 2. På de følgende sider præsenteres udvalgte, markante kunstværker fra Tage Andersens maleri samling. Tage Andersen koncentrerede sig som kunstsamler særligt om Cobra-bevægelsen og helt specifikt om især fire af dens kunstnere: Asger Jorn, Karel Appel, Pierre Alechinsky og Corneille. Samlingen indrammes tidsmæssigt af Asger Jorns figurkomposition (1946) og Corneilles Hommage a Edvard Munch (2000). Inden for dette spænd findes flere fremtrædende værker af Pierre Alechinsky fra perioden 1959-1985, Asger Jorns Am Törichten Brunnen (1967) og en flot serie malerier af Karel Appel fra 1970'erne. The Tage Andersen Collection Tage Andersen (1918-2008) was a prominent figure within the world of business in Denmark and immensely influential within the auditor industry in the 1960s and 1970s. As a leading chartered accountant he also wielded great influence over academic teaching within auditing in the 1960s. Tage Andersen not only enjoyed a successful business career, he was also a passionate collector of exquisite fine art, decorative art and wine. He was especially fond of electrical model trains and over a number of years he compiled an awe-inspiring collection. He dedicated himself to this model train passion when he retired from business at the age of 75. Items from this unique collection are presented in our modern catalogue, part two. The following pages feature a selection of some of the most illustrious artworks in the collection of Tage Andersen, who had a special predilection for works by the CoBrA group, most notably those by Asger Jorn, Karel Appel, Pierre Alechinsky and Corneille. The collection spans a body of work reaching in time from Asger Jorn's figurative composition (1946) to Corneille's 'Hommage a Edvard Munch' (2000). Seminal works in the collection include a number by Pierre Alechinsky from the period 1959-1985, Asger Jorn's 'Am Törichten Brunnen' (1967), and a splendid series of works by Karel Appel from the 1970s. 10 BRUUN RASMUSSEN BREDGADE AUCTION 790

This double painting by Ejler Bille is a striking and art historically very interesting testimony to influences, dividing lines and incipient maturing at stake in the artist's work in the years around 1940. The reverse side, with it's clear concrete touch, points back towards Bille's relation to the artists associated with"linien I" - Richard Mortensen, Vilhelm Bjerke-Petersen and their common international outlook in the 1930's. The front side is an early example of what was to become Bille's highly personal style: Organic, saturated forms and figures embracing each other in condensed microcosms. In a later review of his early efforts the artist writes (1998): "Only very few of my paintings of that time, however, avoided acquiring a certain sense of 'stiffness'. This is without doubt due to my being heavily dependent on Kandinsky in my very young years. It was only during my yearsin Paris (1937-39) that I was able to break free of that mould and to experience a freer, more spontaneous approach tocreating paintings, which pointed the way to the Cobra art of the subsequent years".

Finnish sculptor Kain Tapper has with his sarcophagi, sepulchral monuments and fragments given Finnish sculpture a world name. His art is refined and historical and with its palette, expression and materials it is reminiscent of Etruscan art and its sepulchral tradition. Tapper primarily uses wood, which is a reference to his early childhood when he lived in close contact with the vast woodlands of Finland. He fells and cuts the timber himself then glues the boards together to form reliefs, as with this example entitled Dark Barn. All works by Kain Tapper exhibit the marks of his crafting, which he makes no attempt to erase. On the contrary, such markings are highlighted in the process by applying a preparation of soot and chalk in what may resemble an attempt to refurnish the wood with a kind of bark.

During these years, placed be-tween the artist's surrealist phase in the 1930's and his position in the 1950's as a pioneer in concrete art and in international modernism, Mortensen is working with a kind of expressionism, in many ways reminiscent of, and fully equalling, the future Cobra painters.
