Astrid Kruse Jensen's scenic dreams
When Martin Asbæk Gallery opens the exhibition Resonance by Astrid Kruse Jensen 20 May it will be with a number of new photographic works that seek to capture what is everchanging and goes beyond the tangible. The relationship between photography and remembrance is an important drive for the artist, who has worked with memory as a form of shifted reality in her entire oeuvre. During the photo festival in June the gallery invites you to two artist talks in the gallery.
Resonance is an interaction between cyanotypes and works created using expired polaroid film, and it is therefore not the concrete motives, which are in focus. Instead, the works circle around inner conditions and a search for resonance. The viewer gets the sense of standing across from an abstraction without reference to any specific time. Deconstructed dream images, rooms, and memories merge.
The relationship between photography and remembrance is an important drive for the artist, who has worked with memory as a form of shifted reality in her entire oeuvre. This is expressed through an exploration of the basics of photography. Using double exposure, backlight, chemical traces and the use of long shutter speed, Kruse Jensen generates, with strokes of light, traces of what has already passed, while simultaneously encapsulating traces of resonance.
Scenes of dreams
The title of the exhibition refers to the echo of reminiscences in the world: to sense the resonance of the past in the present. The cyanotypes of the exhibition are an example of a photographic technique, where motives are developed by placing objects on paper prepared with light-sensitive emulsion, which is then exposed to sunlight. However, Astrid Kruse Jensen’s cyanotypes do not work with the imprint of the object, but instead with the imprint of its shadow. Thereby giving the abstract a concrete form – and at the same time connecting with both the starting point of photography, light, as well as the shadows of the past. The works appear as scenes of dreams, in rooms created with the desire for a life in balance.
In the exhibition, Kruse Jensen also introduces a number of works on glass, where it is unclear, whether we are over or under the water surface. The concept of resonance is also known from physics, where it describes two systems that go in oscillations with each other, in harmony. Astrid Kruse Jensen's photographic works are an interpretation as well as an adaptation of this harmony.
About the artist
Astrid Kruse Jensen (b. 1975) has studied at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in the Netherlands and at the Glasgow School of Art. She has been nominated for several prizes, such as the Deutsche Börse Preis in 2014 and Anne Marie Telmányi’s prize for women artists in 2017. Kruse Jensen has had solo exhibitions in Denmark, Sweden, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Iceland and India as well as several group exhibitions in Europe as well as The States, Canada and China. Kruse Jensen’s works are in several private and public collections, including at the George Eastman House, ARoS, The National Collection of Photography, Manchester City Gallery, Vestsjællands Kunstmuseum, Artotheque de Caen, the John Kobal Foundation and the Danish Arts Foundation.

Astrid Kruse Jensens drømmekulisser
Når Martin Asbæk Gallery åbner udstillingen Resonance af Astrid Kruse Jensen fredag den 20. maj bliver det med række nye fotografiske værke, som forsøger at indfange dét, der er i evig forandring og som rækker udover det håndgribelige. Dekonstruerede drømmebilleder, rum og minder går i ét, og netop fotografiets relation til erindringen er en vigtig drivkraft hos kunstneren, der igennem hele sit virke har arbejdet med erindring som en forskudt virkelighed. I forbindelse med fotofestivalen i juni, kan du opleve kunstneren til hele to artist talks i galleriet.
Udstillingen er en vekselvirkning mellem blåtryk og værker skabt på forældet polaroid film, og det er således ikke de konkrete motiver, der er i fokus. I stedet kredser værkerne om tilstande, en søgen efter resonans. Som beskuer får man fornemmelsen af at stå overfor en abstraktion uden reference til nogen specifik tid. Dekonstruerede drømmebilleder, rum og minder går i ét, og netop fotografiets relation til erindringen er en vigtig drivkraft hos kunstneren, der igennem hele sit virke har arbejdet med erindring som en forskudt virkelighed. Dette kommer til udtryk gennem en udforskning af fotografiets grundmateriale. Gennem dobbelteksponeringer, modlys, kemiske spor og brugen af lange lukketider frembringer Kruse Jensen med strøg af lys, sporene fra det, som allerede har passeret, og indkapsler samtidigt spor af resonans.
Drømmekulisser
Udstillingens titel refererer til erindringens genklang i verden; at mærke resonans fra fortiden ind i nutiden. Udstillingens ’blåtryk’ er et eksempel på en fotografisk teknik, hvor motiver fremkaldes ved at placere objekter på papir klargjort med en lysfølsom emulsion, der efterfølgende udsættes for sollys. Særligt for Astrid Kruse Jensens blåtryk er, at der i værkerne ikke arbejdes med objektets aftryk, men i stedet med aftrykket fra dets skygge. Herved får det abstrakte konkret form – samtidig med at værkerne trækker tråde til både fotografiets udgangspunkt, lyset, såvel som fortidens skygger. I udstillingens værker fremstår rummene som kulisser for drømme, i rum som er skabt med ønsket om en tilstand i balance.
I udstillingen introducerer Kruse Jensen også en række værker på glas, hvor det ikke er klart, hvorvidt vi befinder os over eller under vandets overflade. Begrebet resonans kendes også fra fysikken, hvor det beskriver to systemer, der går i svingninger med hinanden, i samklang. Astrid Kruse Jensens fotografiske værker er en fortolkning såvel som bearbejdning af denne samklang.
Om kunstneren
Astrid Kruse Jensen (f. 1975) har studeret på Gerrit Rietveld Academy i Holland samt på Glasgow School of Art. Hun har været nomieret til adskillige priser, herunder Deutsche Börse Preis i 2014 og Anne Marie Telmányi’s pris for kvindelige kunstnere i 2017. Kruse Jensen har haft soloudstillinger i Danmark, Sverige, Frankrig, Tyskland, Holland, Island og Indien samt adskillige gruppeudstillinger i Europa samt USA, Canada og Kina. Kruse Jensens værker optræder endvidere i flere private og offentlige samlinger, herunder George Eastman House, ARoS, Den Nationale Fotosamling, Manchester City Gallery, Vestsjællands Kunstmuseum, Artotheque de Caen, John Kobal Foundation og Statens Kunstfond.

Trine Søndergaard: Faraway Nearby
Dansk tekst nedenfor
In 2020, Greve Museum began a collaboration with art photographer Trine Søndergaard. This collaboration has culminated in a photo exhibition with 25 new photographic works with the title “Faraway Nearby”. In the works, Søndergaard unites the photographic gaze, Greve Museum's historical textiles, and local young people who have been models for the new portraits.
In the photos, the material cultural heritage and art's searching and sensuous approach to history is brought together. In all of the works is a distinct interest in time. Or perhaps, in fact, a dissolution of time, as the artist manages to create motifs across past and present.

I 2020 indledte Greve Museum et samarbejde med kunstfotograf Trine Søndergaard. Det har nu resulteret i en fotoudstilling med 25 nye fotografiske værker under titlen “Faraway Nearby”. I værkerne forener Søndergaard det fotografiske blik, Greve Museums historiske tekstiler og lokale unge mennesker, der har været modeller til de nye portrætter.
I værkerne blandes den materielle kulturarv og kunstens søgende og sanselige tilgang til historien. Fælles for værkerne er en udpræget interesse for tid. Eller måske i virkeligheden en opløsning af tiden, idet kunstneren formår at skabe motiver på tværs af fortid og nutid.
Irina Rozovsky: Behind the Trees
Harbo Bar presents a selection of works by the praised and acknowledged photographer Irina Rozovsky. Photographs from her latest projects reveal her extraordinary talent to notice and capture diverse life among the trees, shaping stirring images of moments filled with serenity and calmness.
We can follow her into these small landscapes that appear quite familiar as ideal. People inhabit beautiful public spaces to find their perfect spot for some privacy to act their at times mysterious or pure and outright rituals. Strolling with Irina Rozovsky through leisure shaped nature, we wander and wonder about peoples little pleasures in plain air.
Though strongly related to a documentary tradition these images have an open and exploring character, often with a narrative twist, that reminds us about the nature of poetry.
“…It is a little like the difference between poetry and prose. In prose, the gaps are filled. Language is used to explain, clarify, articulate. Prose tells us what the writer knows, often suggesting to the reader what to think. Poetry, on the other hand, is as much about what is not said, as what is. It encourages the reader to look, think and draw their own conclusions. To inhabit the spaces between things…” (Editor Georgina Reid on gardens in Wounderground journal)
Harbo Bar is happy to exhibit a special small combination of motives curated by Lene Harbo Pedersen from the book In Plain Air. A long term project Irina Rozovsky photographed within Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY 2011-2020. As a book published by Mack in 2021. These motives are accompanied by two images of the unpublished, latest series Traditions Highway.

Harbo Bar præsenterer et udvalg af værker af den roste og anerkendte fotograf Irina Rozovsky. Fotografier fra hendes seneste projekter afslører hendes ekstraordinære talent for at lægge mærke til og indfange mangfoldigt liv blandt træerne, der danner rørende billeder af øjeblikke fyldt med ro og sirenitet.
Vi kan følge hende ind i disse små landskaber, der fremstår velkendte dog ideelle. Folk indtager disse billedskønne offentlige rum for at finde deres perfekte enemærker til lidt privathed, således at de kan udføre deres til tider mystiske eller jordbundne, autentiske ritualer. Når vi slentrer med Irina Rozovsky gennem formet natur, bevæges vi og forundres over folks små fornøjelser udenfor - ’en Plein Air'.
Selvom fotografierne er stærkt relateret til den dokumentariske tradition, har disse billeder en åben og udforskende karakter, ofte med et narrativt twist, der minder os om poesiens natur.
“...Det er lidt ligesom forskellen mellem poesi og prosa. I prosa udfyldes hullerne. Sproget bruges til at forklare, præcisere, formulere. Prosa fortæller os, hvad forfatteren ved, og foreslår ofte læseren, hvad han skal tænke. Poesi handler derimod lige så meget om, hvad der ikke bliver sagt, som hvad der er. Det opmuntrer læseren til at se, tænke og drage deres egne konklusioner. At bebo mellemrummene mellem ting ..." (Redaktør Georgina Reid om haver og parker i Wounderground journal)
Harbo Bar er begejstrede over at udstille et særligt udvalg af motiver kurateret af Lene Harbo Pedersen fra bogen In Plain Air, et langvarigt projekt fra Prospect Park, Brooklyn, NY fotograferet af Irina Rozovsky i 2011-2020. Projektet blev udgivet som bog på forlaget Mack i 2021. Disse motiver ledsages af to billeder fra en upubliceret serie, Traditions Highway.
Group show: Fang din by
Dansk tekst nedenfor
Danish Architecture Center presents the exhibition Capture your city. The works have been selected on the basis of a nationwide photo competition in the spring of 2022, where everyone with the camera or mobile phone in hand could interpret their city as it looks right now.
Capture your city 2022 received a total of 5,346 contributions from photo-happy Danes this year - almost 1,000 more than in 2021.
This year, the exhibition zooms in on what makes exactly your city unique - the city's soul! The best photos will be exhibited at Bryghuspladsen at the Danish Architecture Center and then travel on to the Folkemødet on Bornholm, Dokk1 in Aarhus, Sønderborg Hovedbibliotek and Faaborg / Ringe library.
This year's theme is The city’s soul
What distinguishes one city from another? What is special about your city? And where is the soul of the city hiding? Is it in the buildings? In the mood? In the old or in the new? It may be difficult to pinpoint, but what is the one thing that makes your city special.
This year's theme encourages you to find what you think makes your city special and which creates a connection between you and the city for better or worse. Whether it's your childhood street, where you learned to stand on roller skates, the schoolyard, where you got your first kiss or the places you pass every day on your bike.
In the jury's assessment of each image, it is emphasized that:
- This year's theme is clearly incorporated
- There is interaction between the physical setting and people
- An exciting image composition
The jury consisted of model and photographer Helena Christensen, critically acclaimed author and regular cartoonist for Politiken with the strip Ting jeg made Maren Uthaug, last year's winner of Fang din by 2021 Oliver Sperling, director of the Copenhagen Photo Festival Maja Dyrehauge Gregersen, and program manager at the Danish Architecture Center Tanya Lindkvist.

Dansk Arkitektur Center præsenterer udstillingen Fang din by. Værkerne er udvalgt på baggrund af en landsdækkende fotokonkurrence i foråret 2022, hvor alle med kameraet eller mobilen i hånden kunne fortolke deres by, som den ser ud lige nu. Fang din by 2022 modtog hele 5.346 bidrag fra fotoglade danskere i år – næsten 1000 flere end i 2021.
I år zoomer udstillingen ind på det, der gør lige præcis din by unik – byens sjæl! De bedste fotos bliver udstillet på Bryghuspladsen ved Dansk Arkitektur Center og rejser derefter videre på Folkemødet på Bornholm, Dokk1 i Aarhus, Sønderborg Hovedbibliotek samt Faaborg/Ringe bibliotek.
Årets tema er Byens sjæl
Hvad adskiller en by fra en anden? Hvad er særligt ved netop din by? Og hvor gemmer byens sjæl sig? Er det i bygningerne? I stemningen? I det gamle eller i det nye? Den kan være svær at udpege, men den er alligevel dén, der gør din by særlig. Årets tema opfordrer til, at du finder det, som du synes gør din by særlig, og som skaber en forbindelse mellem dig og byen på godt og ondt. Om det er din barndomsgade, hvor du lærte at stå på rulleskøjter, skolegården, hvor du fik dit første kys eller det bygningsværk du cykler forbi hver dag.
I juryens bedømmelsen af hvert billede vægtes det at:
• Årets tema tydeligt er indarbejdet
• Der er interaktion mellem de fysiske rammer og mennesker
• En spændende billedkomposition
Juryen bestod af model og fotograf Helena Christensen, anmelderrost forfatter og fast tegner for Politiken med striben Ting jeg gjorde Maren Uthaug, sidste års vinder af Fang din by 2021 Oliver Sperling, direktør for Copenhagen Photo Festival Maja Dyrehauge Gregersen, og programchef på Dansk Arkitektur Center Tanya Lindkvist.
Female art photographers take center stage
On June 2.-12. 2022, Copenhagen Photo Festival, which is the largest photo festival in the Nordic region,
opens up for reflection and play with the boundaries of photography in collaboration with galleries,
museums and cultural actors in Copenhagen and Scania. The festival center is located at the artificial island
Refshaleøen in Copenhagen, where three international female art photographers are among the highlights.
With humor, diversity, and artistic finesse, they portray new aspects of common narratives of the media,
society and history through the art of photography.
On 2-12 June Copenhagen Photo Festival will for the 12th time open all over Copenhagen with three
international women's lens-based art in focus. Hien Hoang, Alexandra Rose Howland and Krista Svalbonas
won the Copenhagen Photo Festival's open call, and will exhibit at the festival center on Refshaleøen. Each
of the artists blurs the boundaries between documentation and art, leaving a personal and highly topical
impression.
Stereotypes, conflict zones and a highly topical depiction of escape
Vietnamese Hien Hoang won in the category Framing Identity with the project ‘Asia Bistro - Made in Rice’. In
her works, she confronts us with classic notions of Asian culture. In the Framing Society category, the
Anglo-American artist Alexandra Rose Howland won for the project ‘Leave and Let Us Go’. Through collages
of everyday images collected from the inhabitants of Mosul, she strives to unfold a more nuanced and
diverse image of the war-torn region, which is often only known through the media coverage.
American-Latvian-Lithuanian Krista Svalbonas won in the category Framing Vision, which honors an
aesthetic visionary project. With ‘Displacement’, she explores the history of her parents and grandparents.
After Russia's invasion of the Baltic countries in the 1940s, they were driven into exile and housed in camps
for displaced people in Germany. The project illustrates the unfortunate story of displaced people for whom the idea of "home" is undermined by political agendas beyond their control. The war in Ukraine puts her
historically investigative works in a frighteningly contemporary perspective.
The festival gathers Danish photography and puts a long-term focus on talents
In addition to the three solo exhibitions, this year’s festival highlights emerging talents and leading Danish
photographers. According to Managing director Maja Dyrehauge Gregersen, it is important that the festival
shows the audience the quality and diversity that the Danish photo scene has to offer.
“Copenhagen Photo Festival is the natural gathering place for leading actors within Danish photography. I
am particularly proud that this year’s festival presents many internationally oriented and entrepreneurial
actors from the Danish photo and art scene. Amongst other, there will be exhibitions, a market for photo
books, and activities from the Photojournalist education at DMJX, TOFU Collective, Fotogodsbanen from
Århus, PhotoScope from Hillerød, Blankt Papir Press and many more”, says Maja Dyrehauge Gregersen.
Another central part of the festival's work is to lift the Danish talent pool. At the festival, you can therefore
once again experience Futures Nordic Talents, which presents the five photographers Iben Gad, Inuuteq
Storch, Luna Scales, Oscar Scott Carl and Tine Bek. The Futures Nordic Talents initiative is a talent program
that helps accentuate emerging Danish photographers. It is supported by the EU's cultural support program
Creative Europe and runs until 2024.
Activities for photo enthusiasts throughout Copenhagen
At the festival site at Refshaleøen, you can look forward to a sharp program of workshops, talks, music and
guided tours, which will be held throughout the festival period. Here you can learn more about
photography, play with the media's tools or just enjoy the festival atmosphere. There is also ample
opportunity to experience the photographic media unfold throughout many of the art galleries, museums,
and cultural institutions across Greater Copenhagen, for example at Fotografisk Center, Martin Asbæk
Gallery, Alice Folker Gallery, NW Gallery, Banja Rathnov Gallery and Clausens Kunsthandel, together with
Det Grønlandske Hus, Landskrona Foto og Galleri Format in Malmö amongst others. Copenhagen Photo
Festival 2022 is currently supported by the City of Copenhagen, Det Obelske Familiefond and Creative
Europe – the EU's cultural support program.
