Rasmus Røhling (DK)
Rasmus Røhling is an artist based in Copenhagen who works in video and sculpture. His recent work has dealt with the representation of male eccentricity/male crisis throughout art history and how this iconification relates to current political issues. In Røhling’s practice, dealing with representation is just as much about withholding and re-coding “images”, as it is about creating new ones. In his works Røhling often hijacks existing images, objects or phenomena, as to indoctrinate- and re-associate them with new meanings.
Rasmus Røhling (b. 1982) lives and works in Copenhagen. He has exhibited widely across Europe and The United States, including: Artist Space (US), Museum für Gegenwartskunst (DE), Culturgest (PT), SMK (DK), Sismógrafo (PT), Inter Arts Center (SE), and Den Frie Udstillingsbygning (DK).
