Some Saturday morning updates! 🟡 ‘I had great masters. I took the best of them of their teachings, of their examples. I found myself, I made myself, and I said what I had to say.’ Big Bird, looking out over stormy seas at Louisiana this morning, sitting atop a reimagining of an Alexander Calder mobile as part of the sculpture ‘As Long as the Sun Lasts’ by Alex Da Corte. Quiet moments at the Glyptotek 🟨 I’m always amazed how serene the galleries can be at this museum in the heart of the city, and the incredible works that lie beside a forgotten staircase or alcove. ‘’Never Stop’ hints at an ecstatic climax on a sweat-drenched dance floor. But the pulsing music that fills Overgaden never quite gets going. Burisch’s videos and accompanying production stills linger in the almost intangible spaces of the in-between. They deny the fair-weather partygoer (or the ‘Plug n Player’ as Burisch calls them elsewhere in the show) full access to the night.’ Over at Nils Stærk this summer, Mexican artist Eduardo Terrazas weaves his architectural background with a fascination for the formal relationships of geometries and folk art to create his radiant, mesmeric works, here made from wool. The colourful lines that erupt from the corners of the works spread over the gallery walls and immerse visitors in Terrazas’s wonderful cosmos. Jeannette Ehlers’s show opens at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, featuring the mythic figure of Moko Jumbie from Afro-Caribbean folklore, stalking the streets of Copenhagen from dawn to dusk, and other powerful installations that explore representations of Blackness and Denmark’s own complex histories of slavery and racism. A look back at these wonderful watercolours on cotton paper by Danish artist Anton Funck, recently on view in the lower space of V1 Gallery in Copenhagen. Still studying at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, Funck’s vibrant and hallucinatory works already have something of Signac and Hokusai about them. Unfortunately all sold out! 🟨🟦🟪🟩
