Biography

Susanne Nørregård Nielsen is a Scottish-based Danish artist. She originally trained as a screen-printer in Copenhagen, before studying printmaking and painting at the Art Academy (P.W.S.S.P.) in Poznan, Poland. After two years she went on to study in the Painting and Printmaking Department at Glasgow School of Art, graduating in 1998. Since 10th January 2000, Susanne has taught in the Painting and Printmaking Department of The Glasgow School of Art.

Nielsen’s art practice makes frequent use of strategies of appropriation. Although her practice is rooted in painting, other media and materials such as photography, plants, textiles and embroideries are often used to make the work.
Through a rigorously research-led practice, Nielsen’s work sets out to challenge dominant art historical interpretations of key art and artists, in particular the three leading twentieth century pioneers of abstraction, Sophie Taeuber-Arp (1889-1943), Piet Mondrian (1872-1944) and Kazimir Malevich (1878-1935).

Nielsen’s central research enquiry illuminates art works central
