as promised - some photos from a new Olafur Eliasson exhibition at ARKEN Museum of Modern Art. it’s a 90 meters long tunnel filled with dense fog and light. it’s hard to describe what it feels like to be walking inside a long passage where all you can see is fog and light that goes from white to black to intense yellow and white again but its an amazing experience! the first photo is by me and the other three press photos from the exhibition. its called Din blinde passager - Your blind passenger.

i also visited abc art berlin contemporary an annual exhibition/gallery event situated across the park from art forum. people were being transported to and from the locations by golf cars.

sorry about the missing artist information

hello! sorry for the long absence. i have been down with a mild but very persistent flu. wednesday i went to berlin to attend art forum berlin. so much art to look at!. these photos were all taken quite early on the day, later the place was packed with people. i’ll be posting some more photos tomorrow.

i’m visiting my parents this weekend and looking forward to walks in the woods and a lot of analogue photography - my digital left at home.

have a great weekend folks!

this weekend my old workspace the gallery GL STRAND reopened after a whole year being closed for renovations. and they opended with a magnificent david lynch exhibition called the air is on fire. it was very exiting to see the old building fully restored. still familiar but with a fresh and clean look. maybe you remember the photos from last time i visited during the renovation.

the new museum entrance

did i ever show you these photos? some weeks ago i visited a museum on the mainland called HEART herning museum of contemporary art. the museum recently moved into a new building designed by the american architect Steven Holl. i quite liked it, and especially the interior space which had a more organic feel to it.

i hope you are having a beautiful saturday and thanks again for all the congratulations wishes!

copenhagen photo festival is coming up and i’m looking forward! the festival will present both significant danish and international contemporary photographers, spread out across the city with exhibitions in art institutions, galleries and urban spaces. it runs from may 12th – 20th starting with the main exhibition day & night on may 12th.

from tomorrow and until the end of the festival there’s also a photo competition, where everyone can contribute with their own pictures of copenhagen. one taken during the day and one at night, with the chance of winning a canon EOS 550 D - i sure wouldn’t mind : )

have a great weekend folks! i’ll show you some photos of my latest knitting project tomorrow. it involves small pom poms…

a quick hello, busy days - see you soon!

relaxing?

i went to my cousin’s birthday party yesterday at my aunt’s house. since i visited them last, they had gotten a sweet kitten/teen-cat called ninja. a lively but also very patient little cat with a passion for tearing paper ( i guess that might be a general cat passion).

have a great sunday folks!

on the art gallery trip sunday we also went to see the exhibition ML 2090 in nikolaj copenhagen contemporary art center. a very fascinating exhibition by the artist ismar cirkinagic. the totalitarian architecture his installation portrays is said to be inspired by george orwell’s science fiction novel 1984. the ‘ML’ in the title of the project stands for ministry of love, another reference to orwell’s book. the full scale section of the imagined ministry of love made quite the impression, but also the small model i really liked. there’s just something spectacular (and a little bit scary!) about this type of architecture, even on a small scale.

the second last photo is taken in another gallery and is dedicated to NE who has an almost unhealthy interest in robot vacuum cleaners. yep that’s the round thing next to the sofa. it even looks like it’s color coordinated with the sofa. neat!
