Denmark became a place where Teodor Bok became familiar with contemporary art in the original. In one of the letters, he wrote to Ewa Kuryluk: "Just in case, I settled near the Louisiana, a beautiful contemporary art gallery-museum, where you can't spit without hitting some Modern Art luminary and I admire the sculptures at night (?). In this way, both parties are satisfied. I enriched myself with a small collection of Moores (British sculptor Henry Moore), Césars (French sculptor César), Giacomettis (Italian sculptor Alberto Giacometti), Arps (Swiss painter and sculptor Hans Arp), while Louisiana already has a rich Bok collection. Oh fame, fame. It's nice to have famous friends" (Letter from Teodor Bok to Ewa Kuryluk of 2 July 1973).
