Jeremy Deller: Welcome to the Shit Show
March 15–August 6, 2023
This spring, Kunsthal Charlottenborg presents a solo exhibition featuring British artist Jeremy Deller. It will coincide with CPH:DOX, Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival, which will take over Kunsthal Charlottenborg in March. The exhibition will accentuate documentary aspects of Deller’s practice, which records extraordinary moments of our time. Through film, photography, graphic works and sculptural installations, Jeremy Deller draws a multifaceted and at times humorous portrait of English culture, examining a range of different communities and groupings where people are united by a common cause. The exhibition is curated by Henriette Bretton-Meyer. Further info here.
Afgang 2023
April 21–May 21, 2023
Afgang is the annual MFA Degree Show presented by this year’s graduates from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts’ Schools of Visual Arts. The 2023 instalment celebrates 39 new talents and includes performance, film and painting as well as text statements and sculptural objects. The exhibition is presented in a setting steeped in tradition and history, specifically the large skylight halls at Kunsthal Charlottenborg—a building which opened in 1883 with the vision of promoting contemporary art. The exhibition is curated by Natalia Sielewicz, curator at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw. Further info here.
Alexander Tovborg: The Church
June 10–August 6 2023
This summer, Kunsthal Charlottenborg presents Danish artist Alexander Tovborg in his most comprehensive solo show to date. The entire south wing is transformed into an immersive installation—a sacred space, where religious tenets are juxtaposed with liberating counter-narratives about faith and superstition, myths and rituals. At the same time, the brightly coloured compositions found in Tovborg’s monumental paintings strike a tranquil note, offering scope for contemplation while illuminating universal themes such as sorrow and joy, anxiety and mercy. The exhibition is curated by Simon Friese and Naja Rasmussen in collaboration with Kunsthal Charlottenborg. Further info here.
Kunsthal Charlottenborg Biennale
June 19–July 23, 2023
In the summer of 2023, the Kunsthal Charlottenborg Biennale will reach audiences throughout Denmark. An international art exhibition presented out of doors in streets, train stations and bus stops across the nation, the Kunsthal Charlottenborg Biennale is held every other year with the intention of bringing contemporary art out to even more Danes. The biennale continues in the vein of Kunsthal Charlottenborg’s previous nationwide exhibitions Yoko Ono—Transmission (2017), It’s Urgent! (2019) and Poet Slash Artist (2021). The 2023 Kunsthal Charlottenborg Biennale will be curated by Hans Ulrich Obrist and Jeppe Ugelvig. Further info here.
