Axel Salto, Keramik, 1950

Foruden maleri, grafik og keramik designede Axel Salto tekstiler. Det var for det meste hans dekorative papirer fra 1943, der blev omarbejdet til tekstiltryk, udført af stoftrykkeren Helga Foght (1902-1974) for tekstilproducenten L.F. Foght. De fleste tekstiltryk var inspireret af ”den spirende stil”, hvorimod trykket ”Keramik” gengiver Axel Saltos egne krukker og vaser især fra ”den riflede” og ”den knoppede” periode.

 

Axel Salto, Keramik (Ceramic), 1950

In addition to his practice as a painter, graphic artist and ceramicist, Axel Salto also designed textiles, in most cases based on his decorated paper designs from 1943. The textiles were produced by textile printer Helga Foght (1902–1974) for the textile manufacturer L.F. Foght. Most of the textile prints were inspired by Salto’s ‘sprouting’ style, while ‘Keramik’ (Ceramic) shows Axel Salto’s own ceramic jars and vessels from, mainly, the ‘rifled’ and ‘budding’ periods.
