Rod i Norden

de Gitte Bach, Vibe Bredahl, Malene Hartmann

Nothing has changed and yet. The artists behind Root in the North show geographical vision, curiosity and generosity and together with the Art Centre Silkeborg Bad invite equally Nordic alive and kicking colleagues into a joint study whose physical form is made up of an exhibition and a book published in connection with the exhibition. There was actually a before. Almost eleven years ago, the Danish artist colleagues looked back in time and retracted the art of long-deceased artists. These had in one way or another been an indispensable inspiration in depiction and relation to nature. Root in Nature the former study was called. More and more artists are conducting artistic studies of the relationship between nature and man. With the current study, the lens is more precisely - and with a Nordic look - aimed at the border zone between culture and nature. The artists have a special interest in this terrain vague, which is neither one nor the other. Exhibition: KunstCentret Silkeborg Bad, Silkeborg, Denmark (12.09. - 13.12.2020).
