Advertisem*nt

Kvindefællesskaber, grænsebrydninger, succes og genopdagelse. 30. august slår vi dørene op til SMK Fridays – og til efterårets store hovedudstilling: 'Against All Odds – Historiske kvinder og nye algoritmer'. En udstilling, der præsenterer 24 nordiske kvindelige kunstnere, der i deres samtid brød med normerne, rejste ud, skabte og opnåede stor succes, inden flere gled ud af historien.

Vær med, når vi denne aften inviterer til udstillingsåbning med talks, lydperformances, oplæsninger, kreative værksteder – og naturligvis masser af kunst! Oplev også det organiske og elektroniske smelte sammen, når vi byder på koncerter i samarbejde med HUN SOLO, der netop arbejder med at skabe synlighed og værdi omkring kvinder og kønsminoriteter i musiklivet. Hele aftenen kan du også gå på opdagelse i den nye udstilling, der fortæller historien om 24 af de mest markante nordiske kvindelige kunstnere fra 1870-1910 i selskab med et altomslu*ttende digitalt værk, skabt af en af tidens største digitale kunstnere Ix Shells.

Women’s communities, breaking boundaries, success, and rediscovery. On August 30th, we open the doors to SMK Fridays – and to the major autumn exhibition: Against All Odds – Historical Women and New Algorithms. An exhibition that presents 24 Nordic female artists who, in their time, broke with norms, traveled abroad, created, and achieved great success before many faded from history.

Join us this evening as we invite you to the exhibition opening with talks, sound performances, readings, creative workshops – and, of course, plenty of art! Experience the fusion of the organic and electronic when we offer concerts in collaboration with HUN SOLO, who work to create visibility and value around women and gender minorities in the music scene. Throughout the evening, you can also explore the new exhibition that tells the story of 24 of the most prominent Nordic female artists from 1870-1910, accompanied by an all-encompassing digital work created by one of today’s leading digital artists, Ix Shells.
