TAGE ANDERSEN II
Floral Art, Interior and Exterior.
'TAGE ANDERSEN II' Price 950 DKK + Postage
A description of an artist's works told in images and accompanied by words. An artist who lives in close connection with everything he does.
The works and objects presented in the book are, in some cases, commissions and in others the works were conceived for exhibitions.
The home and art studio of Tage Andersen houses the permanent Copenhagen exhibition and can be seen as a gallery, museum, or boutique, depending on the purpose of the visit.
"There are moments when one might wish for the entire collection to be relocated to larger expanses, where the horizon lies further away."
"The joy of creating will hopefully never cease, and the possibilities remain endless. Thankfully, there is always something new every day."
Tage Andersen points out that a natural ability to see the greatness in the small helps along the way.

Bouquets in a Fruitful Period
'Tage Andersen - Buketter i en frodig periode' Price 750 DKK + Postage
In this book Tage Andersen shares his immediate joy in working with flowers.
I have deliberately sought to develop lushness from a sparse and, at times, almost ascetic simplicity. Such development is, of course, not always easy. It must constantly be guided so as not to become vulgar or common.
Flowers are a fantastic medium of expression through which one can convey the unsaid. The bouquets in these pictures, so beautifully captured by Bent Rej, hopefully each have their own language. Some are intended to be tender and poetic—others potent and dramatic. But all have been created in a lush period, with joy and love for life and for flowers.

From Advent to Twelfth Night
'Tage Andersen - mod Helligetrekonger' Price 650 DKK + Postage Danish or English
Tage Andersen's "From Advent to Twelfth Night" is about the time of year when Tage Andersen prepares for the Christmas celebrations.
The feeling of anticipation, I find, has become a rarity. However, I look forward every morning to what the day ahead will bring. I look forward to the next season – to the next new thing.
In truth, I dislike Christmas decorations merely for the sake of decoration. But I try, in my own way, to incorporate them into my daily life so that they don’t become superfluous frippery but rather a part of our spiritual nourishment – and a source of joy for the observer.
