Anne-Birthe Hove

Anne-Birthe Hove (1951–2012) was a Greenlandic graphic artist. Many of her works portray the relationship between people and nature and reflect a specifically-Greenlandic identity and politics.[1] Hove was born in Aasiaat and was educated at the Graphic Department at the Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen.[2]

Nuuk Art Museum's collection includes 14 lithographs of Sermitsiaq created by Hove.[3] She illustrated several stamps for Post Greenland, beginning in 1997.[4] For several years she presided over KIMIK, a Greenlandic artist's association.
