From compelling architecture to the intimate rooms of the domestic space, the structural elements of our surroundings have been a popular subject matter in art since the Renaissance. By the end of the 20th century, interior painting as a genre had become widespread, and the subjects, styles and techniques developed along with historical events and social changes.
In the group exhibition PREMISES, Martin Asbæk Gallery explores the depictions of our surroundings through the work of photo-based artists such as Trine Søndergaard, Elina Brotherus, Martin Liebscher, and others, exploring the premises of the home, of beliefs and of personal history, all connected with architecture and spaces.

Festival Pass with Benefits
This year your Copenhagen Photo Festival pass not only opens the doors to the many exhibitions and events at the Festival Center on Refshaleøen, it also gives you benefits to other great photographic experiences around the Copenhagen area.
This year you get half price on the entrance to the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk during the festival period 2-12 June. Louisiana currently exhibits works by the iconic photographer, Diane Arbus – a rare treat, since she is almost never exhibited in Europe, and definitely worth the beautiful train ride to Humlebæk.

Free entrance to Trine Søndergaard exhibition
South of Copenhagen you can visit Greve Museum’s exhibition Faraway Nearby with new works by the internationally renowned Danish photographer Trine Søndergaard for free – also definitely worth a travel. Especially since the museum and Trine Søndergaard unfortunately had to cancel the planned tapas and talk event with the artist on 3 June because of the passing away of her mother in law.

I udstillingen på Greve Museum indgår 25 nye fotografiske værker, hvor Søndergaard forener sit fotografiske blik, museets historiske tekstiler og lokale unge mennesker, der har været modeller til de nye portrætter. Udstillingen viser, hvad der sker, når man frigiver historiske tekstiler og lader dem blive brugt i en ny kontekst. Det kan åbne for nye blikke og tolkninger af museumsgenstandes betydninger.

Efter samtalen serveres hjemmelavet tapas med lækre økologiske råvarer i museets café. Her kan tilkøbes bobler, vin, øl og vand. I løbet af aftenen er der rig mulighed for at opleve udstillingen ”Faraway Nearby” på egen hånd.
