Art on Langeland
We don’t call Langeland “The artists’ Island” just for fun. ’Since the 1960’s the island has been a gathering place for artists and artisans from both near and far. This is why Langeland can offer so many artistic attractions.
The Artists’ Island
In Denmark you can find a small number of geographical areas which attract artists like a magnet. It might be because if the light. Or because of the nature. Or because they can find colleagues from many different artistic genres living nearby. Langeland is just such a place - and has been since the 1960s, when many artists first started moving out into the countryside to find inspiration from nature and the natural light.
This is why Langeland can offer so many different artistic experiences, in the studios of its artists and craftspeople, in its public spaces where many sculpture have been erected over the years, and in the Art Towers - which can be found from the north of the island to the south, and in TICKON, which has built up a collection of Land Art instillations created by artists from all over the world.
A Rich Diversity of Art
Langeland is a hotspot for artist working in all genres of the arts and crafts.
