Ib Spang Olsen Gallery

A journalist once wrote of Ib Spang Olsen that his drawings are a national treasure, a priceless cultural treasure, and how could we in all humility judge an already canonized work of this calibre? Ib Spang Olsen was an accomplished writer, but a completely brilliant illustrator. With an easily recognizable style, he created his own iconography … Some would argue that he represents something typically Danish, but the fact is that he is truly unique.

The IB Spang Olsen Gallery in Copenhagen couldn’t be better located or situated. Stroll down the old Kronprinsessegade Gade, which runs down the side of the Kongens Have (The Kings Garden), and you’ll stumble upon the most charming gallery in Copenhagen. Inconspicuous, delightful and with an other worldly atmosphere that does credit to the artist whose name graces the sign over the door.

The Ib Spang Olsen Gallery is dedicated to reproducing the best high quality prints and drawings from the Artists extensive collection.
