Abstracts

This article focuses on Ingrid Vang Nyman’s illustrations to various books about Pippi Longstocking, written by Astrid Lindgren, ranging from novels through picturebooks to comics. The core of the paper is an analysis of the Danish artist’s style, her use of means of artistic expression, and her attitude towards avant-garde movements in Western art in the 1930s and 1940s. The text briefly covers Vang Nyman’s biography, and the influence of her Danish background, taking mainly the period of her studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen into consideration. Analysis makes it possible to indicate three main features of Vang Nyman’s “Pippi works”, which are a specific construction of space, anti-classical aesthetics, and a selfdiscilplined use of basic colours taken from modern painting, e.g. Neo-Plasticism.
