A modern art classic: Anitra Lucander - Poet of Colour

The autumn 2011 exhibition, Anitra Lucander – Poet of Colour, forms part of EMMA’s classic series  presenting foremost representatives of Finnish Modernism. Anitra Lucander (1918-2000) became known as one of the post-war reformers of Finnish art and a pioneer of abstract art.  During the 1950s, through Cubism and collage technique, she developed lyrical abstract expressionism based on individual and rich shades of colour. As a woman artist Anitra Lucander was an exception in the then highly masculine Finnish art world.
