Aage Rasmussen Art

1889-1983

Aage Rasmussen made his breakthrough as a young man, in 1937 when he proposed a poster called the Lyntog Plakaten for DSB, also known as the Denmark State Railways, which was accepted on the spot. The Danish Poster Museum has reprinted several beautiful posters of Aage Rasmussen as the museum along with the art and has inherited its rights. In 1938 Rasmussen won a competition to create a new Denmark poster. One of the judges was the great idol of the French poster artist AM Cassandre. The poster was, however, only printed after the war, in 1946. Since then Aage Rasmussen has made several plakaters, tourist posters and other artwork in Odense, Svendborg and Herning.

Nelson Mandela, Artist's Motivation, Signed Limited Edition Lithograph Many people are unaware that Nelson Mandela turned his hand to art in his 80's as a way of leaving a legacy for his family. He spent time with an art tutor and learnt to draw. In 2002, when creating the The Motivation print, he told Anna and Laura from Belgravia Gallery of his desire to become a full time artist when he retired. This artwork is a handwritten Artist’s Motivation by Nelson Mandela and reads: “Today when I look at Robben Island I see it as a celebration of the struggle and a symbol of the finest qualities of the human spirit, rather than as a monument to the brutal tyranny and oppression of apartheid. Robben Island is a place where courage endured in the face of endless hardship, a place where people kept on believing when it seemed their dreams were hopeless and a place where wisdom and determination overcame fear and human frailty. It is true that Robben Island was once a place of darkness, but out of that darkness has come a wonderful brightness, a light so powerful that it could not be hidden behind prison walls, held back by prison bars...
