Cathrine Raben Davidsen – Grafik 1998-2022 (Signed)

Cathrine Raben Davidsen is a multi-dimensional artist. Working in a variety of media, she has developed and refined an instantly recognizable personal style over a career of nearly 30 years. Raben Davidsen moves effortlessly through time and space – between myth and history, light and darkness, reality and fantasy. From prehistory to the present, human challenges and universal dilemmas are her preferred subject matter. While the final product may vary widely, the starting point is always the same: graphic art. Lines. The written word or the drawn line. But mainly the former, even if it ends up as a visual narrative embodied in art.

Raben Davidsen’s work in printmaking has long since become a fundamental and essential part of a multifaceted practice that she characterizes, cultivates and celebrates as eternal study. In fascination with its techniques and curiosity about its manifold expressions, printmaking has become an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Often, it is through the printmaking process that she finds themes for subsequent paintings.

Over the years, Raben Davidsen has produced a prodigious output of more than 400 prints – etchings, lithographs, woodcuts, monotypes and monoprints. This body of work is now presented for the first time in a major retrospective exhibition of prints spanning Raben Davidsen’s career as an artist. The present volume, published in conjunction with the exhibition, lists, and illustrates her prints from 1998 to the present.
