ARVESTYKKER

“Arvestykker” in Art Tower 1 by Rasmus Nielsen highlights the loss of species in nature.

The work combines patterns and shapes inspired by butterflies, in particular the “Xerces blue” butterfly, which was one of the first American butterfly species to become extinct in the 1940s due to habitat loss caused by urban development. The style is abstract with figurative elements, which are both tactile and sensory, and is painted in luminescent green so that it can also be seen at night. The title ‘Heirlooms’ refers to how we treat the natural world and what we pass on to future generations.

Langeland's Art Towers - a unique way of experiencing art

Denmark's longest art exhibition can be experienced by visiting 12 former electrical transformer towers on Langeland. The art towers give visitors an artistic experience in the heart of the Langeland countryside.
From North to South and East to West, you can explore the cultural landscape and enjoy art in rural peace and quiet.

The towers are open all year round. A tour around them all will always offer a new experience, influenced by both the season and weather.
