There is a very long and detailed article about Jens Quistgaard in the Spring 2011 issue of Modernism Magazine. Written by Stig Guldberg – filmmaker of the “Saucepan for my Wife” documentary – the article is filled with information about Jens Quistgaard’s life and his design work. I have a subscription and just got the issue in the mail yesterday.
It’s really exciting to see a major spread in a national magazine about Jens Quistgaard. The article features stories about the founding of Dansk and other aspects of JHQ’s life. There’s some great archival photography that accompanies the article and a sidebar for collectors as well. A must read for any fan of Dansk Designs or JHQ.
You can find out more information on the article on their site.
Modernism has also posted additional photos and an excerpt from Stig’s film on their blog.
