POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I know, I post many photos of myself these days, but apparently that’s what the algorithm likes. Most people click on a person before they click on art, and that’s just the reality of social media. So, I’m trying to play the game a little while finding a balance between being authentic and being curated. I actually like both—just on my own terms.

Anyway… I’m posting this tonight, even if hardly anyone sees it, because I wanted to tell you about my evening.

After working my ass off for quite some time now—with great joy, I should add, and plenty of physical labor—I finally decided to slow down for a bit.

I put on my “Simply Red” station (trying to unbridle my corny nature, which, to my surprise, I didn’t even know I had 😉), made myself comfortable, and started browsing through my library @multnomahcountylibrary books.

I found myself reflecting on the future, which, if I’m honest, feels quite terrifying at the moment. While flipping through Vitamin D: New Perspectives in Drawing (which, in my opinion, is a fantastic book), and feeling a little vulnerable, I discovered Simon Evans @simonevanstm .

His work is so witty and clever that it genuinely made me laugh. Within minutes, my tears of sadness turned into tears of joy. It reminded me—once again—how much art matters.

And once again, it confirmed that British humor really resonates with me.

As I’m writing this, Lionel Richie starts singing, “Hello… is it me you’re looking for?”

I swear. 😂

Maybe the song came from space… or from some mysterious place I don’t even believe in. Although, apparently, believing is supposed to help. 😉

Simon, thank you. You made my evening. ❤️

5 artists to know before the fair in April.

Patrick Nilsson’s (b. 1966, SE) visual language is shaped by contrasts between darkness and black humour, with recent works turning toward observation of nature and its shifting visibility. @patrick_nilsson_art @galleriflach

Deborah Roberts (b. 1962, US) creates figurative collages depicting Black subjecthood, combining found imagery and drawing to challenge stereotypes and fixed identities. @rdeborah191 @rosssuttongallery

Patricia Iglesias Peco’s (b. 1974, AR) layered surfaces are shaped by touch and time, where colour builds through slow processes of accumulation and erasure. @patopeco @stancegallery__

Anders Widoff’s (b. 1953, SE) poetic works spanning painting, sculpture and installation. @anders_widoff @bjorkholmengallery

Simon Evans (b. 1972, UK) and Sarah Lannan (b. 1984, US) collaborative practice combines text-based collages, drawings and diagrams into layered reflections on memory and everyday life. @simonevanstm @galleribobjerggaard

More from tour. Maybe with Ratatat in 2009-10ish, somewhere in south west . If anyone remembers let me know. On the road, pickled Jalapeños make breakfast great and a great breakfast.

As the year comes to an end, we look back on a year shaped by change, collaboration and strong artistic moments.

This year marked the beginning of a new chapter for the gallery, as we moved to Frederiksberg.
A change of address, but also an opportunity to rethink, reset and continue developing the gallery as a place for strong artistic encounters.

We would like to thank all the artists we work with for an inspiring year of close collaboration, ambitious exhibitions and remarkable works.
In 2025, exhibitions at the gallery included Simon Evans & Sarah Lannan, Rasmus Nilausen, Ivan Andersen, Erik Steffensen, as well as the group exhibitions Visual Voices and All Nature has a Feeling.

Beyond the gallery, our artists were active across a wide range of institutions and contexts.
Highlights from the year include Emily Gernild’s large-scale commission for Østre Landsret; Per Bak Jensen’s solo exhibition at Sorø Kunstmuseum; Anna Bjerger’s public mural on Vesterbro; Erik Steffensen’s exhibition at Augustiana; Tal R’s participation in Gammel Strand’s 200-year anniversary exhibition; John Kørner’s mural at Palæstinas Plads; Per Kirkeby’s major exhibition at Kunsten Museum of Modern Art Aalborg; A K Dolven’s retrospective exhibition at Nasjonalmuseet in Oslo; and Janaina Tschäpe’s large-scale mural commission at Tampa International Airport – among many other projects and exhibitions throughout the year.

We also had the pleasure of meeting audiences at art fairs, including Art Herning, Market Art Fair and CHART, and we’re grateful to everyone who stopped by our booths – and to the artists who contributed works to them.

We look forward to 2026, and to many more exhibitions, collaborations and shared moments with art.

With warm regards,
Bo, Britt, Morten, Jeanette, Gundhild, Sven, Dafne & Sebastian❤️
