OPENING WITH PERFORMANCE · A Room Full of Love · Mette Hartung Kirkegaard

Soloudstillingen A Room Full of Love med billedkunstner Mette Hartung Kirkegaard skydes i gang med kolde drikkevarer og hygge på Vesterbro. For at understrege udstillingens fokus på fotograferings-situationen, vil Kirkegaard under åbningen iscenesætte et shoot som en performance, hvor hun fotograferer i udstillingsrummet og mellem besøgende. Undervejs har publikum mulighed for at se billederne på en storskærm og på den måde følge hendes blik gennem rummet. Udvalgte fotografier fra aftenen vil senere blive printet, bearbejdet i hånden og løbende føjet til udstillingen.

Program for aftenen:
16.30: Velkomst
17.30: Performance



The solo exhibition A Room Full of Love by visual artist Mette Hartung Kirkegaard kicks off with cold drinks and a cosy atmosphere in Vesterbro. To emphasise the exhibition’s focus on the photographic situation, Kirkegaard will stage a photo shoot as a performance during the opening, taking photographs in the exhibition space and amongst the visitors. Throughout the event, the audience will have the opportunity to view the images on a large screen, thereby following her gaze through the space. Selected photographs from the evening will later be printed, processed by hand and progressively added to the exhibition.

16.30: Welcome

GALLERY CRAWL · Lille Vesterbro tur · CPF X

Deltag i denne unikke Gallery Crawl til nogle af vores udvalgte partnerudstillinger i CPF X-programmet – en fælles gåtur til tre unikke fotoudstillinger i indre by. Vi besøger Wonderland Art Space, Prospekt, Fotografisk Center og Kvægtorvet, hvor spændende udstillinger venter.

OM UDSTILLINGERNE

Wonderland Art Space
Udstillingen tager sit udgangspunkt i Ida Ellinors undersøgelse af det, der ligger under det synlige. Med en vedvarende nysgerrighed mod jorden bevæger Ida Ellinor sig langsomt ind i dens lag. Hun inviterer beskuren til at forholde sig til eksistentielle spørgsmål som: Hvad vil det sige at være jordnær? At finde ro i skiftet mellem lys og mørke? Hvordan skaber vi resonans uden at ville kontrollere os selv og den anden.

Prospekt
I A Room Full of Love udforsker Mette Hartung Kirkegaard fotografi som en måde at forbinde sig med sine omgivelser på og udvider mediet gennem installation, skulptur og alternativt maleri. Udstillingen sætter fokus på det at fotografere, herunder en live performance ved åbningen, hvor publikum kan følge hendes blik i realtid. Værkerne reflekterer forholdet mellem motiv, billede og rum og fremhæver temaer som empati, nærvær og intimitet.

Fotografisk Center
The Earth Under Our Feet samler tre kunstnere, der udforsker det danske landskab som et rum formet af menneskelig aktivitet, kultur og tid. Gennem forskellige fotografiske tilgange præsenterer udstillingen naturen som et levende arkiv og reflekterer over forholdet mellem menneske og miljø.

Kvægtorvet
Turen slutter i Søren Solkærs Stages udstilling på Kvægtorvet, hvor kunstneren afholder artist talk og viser rundt i udstillingen. Søren Solkærs fotografier viser kunstnere ved Roskilde Festival i intime backstage-øjeblikke. Projektet viser den menneskelige side af performance med fokus på sårbarhed og rummet mellem det private og det offentlige. 

Join us on this unique Gallery Tour to some of our selected partner exhibitions in the CPF X programme – a shared walking tour to three unique photography exhibitions in the inner city. We will visit Wonderland Art Space, Prospekt, Fotografisk Center and Kvægtorvet, where exciting exhibitions await.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITIONS

Woderland Art Space
The exhibition takes its starting point in Ida Ellinor’s exploration of what lies beneath the surface. With a persistent curiosity about the earth, Ida Ellinor slowly delves into its layers. She invites visitors to reflect on existential questions such as: What does it mean to be down-to-earth? To find peace in the transition between light and darkness? How do we create resonance without seeking to control ourselves and others?

Prospekt
In A Room Full of Love, Mette Hartung Kirkegaard explores photography as a way of connecting with her surroundings, extending the medium through installation, sculpture and alternative painting. The exhibition focuses on the act of photographing itself, including a live performance during the opening where visitors can follow her gaze in real time. Her works reflect the relationship between subject, image and space, highlighting themes of empathy, presence and intimacy.

Fotografisk Center
The Earth Under Our Feet brings together three artists exploring the Danish landscape as a space shaped by human activity, culture, and time. Through varied photographic approaches, the exhibition presents nature as a living archive, reflecting on the evolving relationship between humans and the environment.

Kvægtorvet
The tour ends at Søren Solkær’s Stages exhibition at Kvægtorvet, where the artist will hold an artist talk and show the exhibition. Søren Solkær’s photographs show artists at Roskilde Festival in intimate backstage moments. The project shows the human side of performance with a focus on vulnerability and the space between the private and the public.

ABOUT EXHIBITIONS

Organised by DGI Byen, the exhibition Copenhagen by Bike is a collective story about Copenhagen as a city of bicycles - created by the citizens themselves based on their personal photographs and cycling stories. The open-air exhibition will show the city from the perspective of those who give it its daily rhythm.

The exhibition Rise of the Sunken Sun by Inuuteq Storch at Fotografisk Center is a moving story about Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), shown through the eyes of an artist who was both the first artist from the North Atlantic part of the Danish Kingdom and the first photographer to have a solo exhibition in the Danish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. Through six photographic series, Storch weaves together personal memories, family archives, and historical images to reclaim a voice in the narrative of his homeland and give it a new, multidimensional dimension.

In the series Heroin, photographer Marcus Trappaud Bjørn captures a quiet, partisan moment just after taking a drug. The series presented in the exhibition at Prospekt reveals a situation and a moment that is often overdramatised and associated with overdoses, insanity, and diseases like hepatitis and HIV, but which for users, in most cases, is an undramatic situation and a moment of calm, where they take their drug and feel back on top.

Morten Aagaard Krogh's exhibition Out of the Darkness shows mysterious life forms suspended in blackness, balancing between the familiar and the alien. Thanks to a precise photographic technique, the photographs combine scientific detail with an oneiric atmosphere, inviting an attentive, almost meditative gaze to be visually savoured at Vogelkop.

Newsroom in the Galleri 1,4 m3 is a collective project initiated by Sarah Lubich that unfolds over the course of the exhibition. The artists send their work by post - following in the tradition of Mail Art - creating a dynamic reflection on the contemporary flow of information and the experience of media reality.
