UNIKA - arts and crafts from all over North Jutland

Time: The exhibition opened 27 November at 4.30 p.m. and can be seen up to and including 20 December

UNIKA is the title of a book about arts and crafts in North Jutland and in the time ahead it is also the name of an exhibition in the Utzon Center, as the craftsmen from the book will exhibit their handicrafts in the center.

The exhibition gives a concrete insight into arts and crafts in North Jutland, and the visitors get an opportunity to buy a Christmas present. There will be art wares in all price ranges.

You can also buy the book UNIKA in the exhibition. It is a very personal book written by the journalist and composer Evanthore Vestergaard.

“You could say that I have taken an aerial photo of the more than 500 craftsmen in North Jutland, and then I have chosen some points of impact and take some snapshots. The intention is not only to tell about the individual craftsmen, but also to make kind of a portrait of the actual profession, which handicraft has been for hundreds of years. The choice of the persons involved is very subjective. It has been my intention to show the multitude and diversity among potters, glassblowers, jewellery artists and textile designers.” Evanthore Vestergaard says.
