AHC LAUNCHES NEW EXHIBITION SPACE
Over the past five years, Art Hub Copenhagen (AHC) has sought to create spaces for visual art and its many actors. The mission goes beyond providing physical space for art and artists—it is also about rethinking and experimenting with the ways art is conceived, created, shown and discussed today.
AHC’s upcoming move to Thoravej 29 in Copenhagen’s Nordvest district marks a significant expansion of its facilities. The new location will feature fourteen studios, five workshops for artistic production and a new, experimental exhibition space called Room Room.
Room Room will present three to four exhibitions annually, showcasing both emerging and established artists, curators and artistic researchers from local, national and international scenes. Participants are either drawn from AHC’s various programmes or selected through annual open calls.
Opening on 17 January 2025, the inaugural exhibition presented at Room Room is curated by Johanne Jacobsen and Kristian Kirk, directors of the exhibition space inter.pblc on Hamletsgade, not far from Thoravej 29.
Titled 9-5, 5-9, the group exhibition investigates contemporary online culture and examines how our frenetic presence on platforms both online and offline has created an untamed land of shares and reactions, hot takes and tags, resignation and intervention.
The exhibition presents nine Danish and international artists, all of whom have had a connection to AHC. The participating artists are:
Beth Collar (b. 1984), Heine Kjærgaard Klausen (b. 1978), Javier Alvarez Sagredo (b. 1994), Jules Fischer (b. 1988), Justin F. Kennedy (b. 1983), Maja Malou Lyse (b. 1993), Masar Sohail (b. 1982), Sara Sjölin (b. 1991), and Simon Dybbroe Møller (b. 1976).
