More about Franciska Clausen

Franciska Clausen (1899-1986) was a Danish painter who holds a unique position in Danish art due to her early adoption of radical European movements in the 1920s, which she unsuccessfully fought to promote upon her return to Denmark. As a student of Moholy-Nagy and Archipenko in Germany, she primarily connected with Russian Constructivism through her work with collages. Thanks to Léger, she initially followed Cubism and Purism in Paris, later transitioning to Neoplasticism. She became a staunch advocate of Mondrian and sought to expand the Mondrian schema.
