Artist Biography

Axel Conrad Petersen Aabrink (1887-1965) was a Danish painter. He was educated at a technical school, at the school of Kristian Zahrtmann, and was also a private pupil of H. Gronvold. Aabrink married Emilie Louise Petersen in Kalundborg, on September 10, 1925. He later worked as a furniture maker's apprentice to make money for his education as a painter. Aabrink became a journeyman under Georg Moller in Copenhagen, and went to art school at night. He was friends with Olaf Rude, but was deeply influenced by Albert Gottschalk's art. From the beginning of the 1920s, he lived in Jylland around Hobro, where he lived in peaceful surroundings. Aabrink was shy and reclusive, spending most of his life painting landscapes and forest scenes from around the areas he lived in. Aabrink had an exhibition of his work in 1919.
