pinderihallerne - Art & Business Centre

One of Karen-Lisbeth Rasmussen's main accomplishments has been the transformation of Spinderihallerne in Vejle, Denmark (an abandoned cotton factory) into a respected exhibition space and artist's "commune". In 2003 the project was awarded a multimillion dollar grant from the Real Dania Foundation to completely refurbish the old cotton mill and combine the art activities with desirable office spaces, thus effectively seeking to synergize art and business activities.
