The vintage Ege art line rugs were the creation of Mads Eg Damgaard. In 1938, he wanted to create carpets that reflected emerging trends in the art world. He often recreated the masterpieces of contemporary artists in a format that could be used as the focal point of the room. This specific vintage rug from Scandinavia is titled “Running” and was part of a series produced in the mid-20th century.
The piece features vibrant primary colors that mimic running paint. This piece of abstract art shows depth and looks as if it was created by dripping paint on canvas, allowing it to dry, and then repeating the process with the canvas rotated.
