After its debut at Torre Velasca during the last edition of Milano Design Week, the exhibition Weaving Anni Albers - a textile collection and installation developed in collaboration with The Josef & Anni Albers Foundation - travelled to Copenhagen, with new resonance in a new setting: the historic Women’s Building (Kvindernes Bygning).

Designed in 1936 by Ragna Grubb – one of the first women in Denmark to open her own architectural practice – the building is one of the country’s earliest examples of functionalist architecture. Originally conceived as a space for female cooperation and cultural life, it brought together women’s organisations, political associations, and social spaces under one roof.

This convergence of architectural and artistic legacy underscored Weaving Anni Albers in its Copenhagen iteration. Here, the exhibition drew a line between two disciplines and two women who expanded the possibilities of their medium. In different fields and contexts, both Albers and Grubb advanced a vision of modernity grounded in clarity and material intelligence.

Dedar invited visitors to explore a world where threads are a language, and textiles are both material and meaning – they are narratives of legacy, innovation, beauty, and enduring artistry.
