For CHART 2022, artist Kaarina Kaikkonen has created a site-specific installation for the façade of Charlottenborg, facing towards the historical plaza at Kongens Nytorv. Shaped like a monumental blooming flower, the work will both highlight the entrance to CHART and extend the dialogue with contemporary art, out of Charlottenborg and into the city centre.

The installation is composed of hundreds of recycled shirts, pointing towards the historical consistency of humanity’s basic needs, regardless of period, cultural paradigm or environmental conditions.

The installation is kindly supported by Frame Contemporary Art Finland as well as Kulturfonden for Danmark og Finland.

Kaarina Kaikkonen’s work will also be on-view with Galerie Forsblom inside Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, BERG Contemporary will present two historical works by video art pioneers Steina and Woody Vasulka. ‘Soundsize’ (1974) showcases the Vasulkas' investigation into the relationship between sound and image, as a pattern of dots is modulated by sounds generated from a synthesizer, changing size and shape as a visual manifestation of electronic sound.

In ‘Heraldic View’ (1974), an oscillator-generated pattern drifts over a camera image of bricks and stone. Throughout, the patterns are modulated by sharp bursts of voltage generated by an audio synthesizer.

The artworks are included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair. Other works by the Vasulkas will be presented by BERG Contemporary in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, BERG Contemporary will present a video by Sigurður Guðjónsson entitled ‘Lightroom’ (2018). An enchanting space, lit up by an old slide projector, is documented with a high-definition camera. In the process, the mechanical movement of processes that are not usually visible become perceptible via an audio-visual experience.

Guðjónsson often manipulates outdated devices to give them a new abstract life. In the process, he extracts the poetic beauty from technology, revealing a productive mechanism at the point where old meets the new.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

Sigurður Guðjónsson’s works will also be presented by BERG Contemporary in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, Galerie Anhava will present a video by Jani Ruscica entitled ‘No Dot on the I’ (2021). The work questions specificity, what constitutes the essence of something and the point at which a thing might turn into something else. It does so by pushing against the edges of signs, binaries, and categories. Specificity takes place when essence becomes meaning and it transforms itself into a sign, a word, an index, a sentence and finally a book that is put on a shelf and left there. Ruscica’s aim is to disrupt this order.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

Jani Ruscica’s works will also be presented at Galerie Anhava in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

As part of Bladr’s presentation at CHART, they have invited Kristian B. Johansson and Wilfred Wagner from the former KLD Repro to host the performance workshop ‘Table of Content,’ where each publisher participating at CHART Book Fair is invited to contribute to the production of an on-site catalogue.

Kristian B. Johansson and Wilfred Wagner will collect material from each of the publishers at the book fair and reproduce them as a risograph print catalogue, available for purchase on Saturday and Sunday during CHART.

MoNDA - Museum of Nordic Digital Art is one of the first artist-run, pop-up initiatives in the Nordic region with a specific focus on Nordic and international contemporary art which makes use of new technologies in art such as: augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), 3D print-and-scan methods and blockchain technology as it relates to so-called NFTs (non-fungible tokens).

Launching at CHART 2022, MoNDA will present a selection of new works from the museum in the foyer at Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, Galleri Steinsland Berliner will present ‘Domino’ (2016) by Akay & Olabo.

The film depicts a discontinued lumber yard where a wealth of material has been left behind. What’s the harm in making sure things don’t go to waste? This film explores how small actions can have big consequences.

Akay & Olabo have a history of setting up illicit installations and various other creative vandalisms in public places. Their recent collaborations have taken them out of traditional urban spaces and into areas that have been designated as “off-limits”: condemned warehouses, empty office buildings, decommissioned timber yards and the like.

They’ve gained access and had keys made to half a dozen abandoned properties around Stockholm. They’ve gone into places where teargas still lingers from police practice drills, where water leaks have transformed rooms into blue-green mold marshes, or where they find a perfectly preserved office environment from the eighties. Most of the time, they end up finding themselves inside an anticlimactic industrial building, where it simply appears everyone left one day and forgot to lock the door.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

For CHART 2022, Dorothée Nilsson Gallery will present a video by Julia Peirone entitled “I am not blonde” (2022), in which the artist asks a series of girls to recreate Marilyn Monroe’s iconic appearance. Expanding on Peirone’s signature interests, the work explores aspects of vulnerability, shame, and sexuality in a time when social media is coming to play an increasingly significant role in the construction of individual identities.

In ‘I am not blonde’ the artist positions a camera in front of consecutive subjects, assuming the POV of a mirror, thus capturing a sequence of intimate moments as these girls consciously or unconsciously explore how classic signifiers of femininity - painted lips, long eyelashes - can be used to create masks to hide behind or provide access to elevated positions of power. In conjunction with the filming process for ‘I am not blonde’, Peirone also captured a series of portraits showing the girls in full make-up, which are currently on display at Liljevalchs in Stockholm.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

For CHART 2022, Galleria Heino presents a video by Lauri Astala entitled ‘Sketch for the Last Map’ (2022). The work was shot between several cities in Belgium, South Korea, India, France, Turkey and Uruguay between 2014 and 2020. Overlapping layered images of indoor and outdoor spaces are displayed – as if the buildings had become translucent. The individual image layers of which each “situation” in the film are comprised, are all taken from the same city and some even from the exact same place.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

In the foyer of Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Gernes-Fonden will present works from one of Poul Gernes’ (1921-1996) iconic Masonite series, executed for his decoration of the basement at the Panum Institute in Copenhagen around 1980.

The Panum series consists of various stylized flower motifs, each framed by an ornamented frieze. Each flower is symmetrically arranged around a central axis creating a kind of folksy harmony in a space intended to dissect body parts at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences.

Gernes-Fonden is a non-profit charitable foundation supporting artists contributing to contemporary society, and expanding knowledge around the life and work of Poul Gernes.

In the courtyard at CHART, the new artist-run Museum of Nordic Digital Art (MoNDA) will present a new augmented reality (AR) sculpture park. The exhibition will feature three-dimensional digital artworks created by pioneering contemporary digital artists such as ORLAN (FR), Auriea Harvey (US), Kathrin Hunze (DE), Ida Kvetny (DK) and Sabrina Ratté (CA).

You can view the exhibition at CHART by scanning QR codes, displayed on the signs in the courtyard, with your mobile phone.

The AR sculpture park and the launch of MoNDA is kindly supported by Nordisk Kulturfond.

The work ‘Everything is Real’ by Danish artist Aske Olsen has been created for the exhibition ‘Another Surrealism’ opening at Den Frie on 25 August. During CHART, the work will be presented in the courtyard of Charlottenborg before relocating to its place in front of Den Frie.

‘Everything is Real’ is a complex collage built from poetic statements, artistic fragments and loose references and associations. Consisting of two LED screens placed on a trailer, the work simulates the format of moving-image advertisements as they can often be seen across big cities, referencing the incessant bombardment and production of images that characterises much of our contemporary experience.

For CHART 2022, Cecilia Hillström Gallery will present ‘Squat’, a solo presentation by Kristina Matousch featuring sculptures, wall objects and a new performative project.

The presentation circles around time, space, body and movement, in particular, the stillness of the moment before something happens.

For the performance, an aluminium box will be installed high up in the corner of the booth; fragments of a body will be visible as someone moves inside this claustrophobic space

There will be a filmic quality to the performance realised inside the box, with naked skin pressing onto the glass and flattening out against the surface. The box is imagined as a hiding place, offering protection from what is going on in the installation below.

‘Those Who Kept the Lights’ is based on ten poetic manuscripts written by artist Nastja Säde Rönkkö (FI) while travelling through the barren Nordic landscapes. The film reflects on our relationship to the sea through queer-feminist maritime narratives, as well as exploring the importance of vulnerability, care, and collective mythic memory in the battle against climate change.

Join us for a screening of one of the film’s ten chapters, followed by an artist talk with Nastja Säde Rönkkö in conversation with curator Aura Seikkula (FI) and Director of Kunsthal Rønnebæksholm Lotte Juul Petersen (DK).

‘Those Who Kept the Lights’ will be on-view, in its entirety, at the Barn at Rønnebæksholm from 28 August – 11 September 2022. It opens on the 28 August 12noon-5pm with opening speeches at 1pm.

'Those Who Kept the Lights' is made possible by Avek, Nordic Culture Foundation, Nordic Culture Point, The Finnish Cultural Institute in Denmark, The Finnish-Norwegian Cultural Institute, Tönne von Christierson's Foundation, Ulla and Erik Hoff-Clausen's Family Foundation and Taike Arts Promotion Centre Finland.

Rune Peitersen’s book 'Raabjerg' (2022) charts the morphing landscape of the sand dune Raabjerg in northern Jutland under the influence of climate change, resource extraction, and attempts to ‘restore’ and ‘re-establish’ a ‘natural’ landscape. The project asks: how do you preserve something in constant transition?

The book is published by Jap Sam Books and presented with Really Simple Syndication Press at CHART Book Fair.

For CHART 2022, Persons Projects will present a book signing with the artist Grey Crawford. His book 'Chroma' from 1978 documents late 70s Los Angeles in a period of radical urban transformation. Crawford’s work holds an important place in art history and his visionary aesthetic remains relevant and seems more important than ever at this stage in the 21st century.

The signing will take place at the CHART exhibitor table in the book fair.

Ronny Rønning and Peter Wendel have never met but have a lot in common. Both worked in other fields before migrating towards photography, they prefer to work with black and white imagery, they made their respective photo book debuts late in their careers and have so far published two books each: Ronny Rønning with ‘Soria Moria’ (2019) and ‘Interregnum’ (2021) and Peter Wendel with ‘Behind the Sofa / Bakom soffan’ (2020), with an afterword by Bob Hansson, as well as ‘Missing Pages’ (2021).

Both photographers will be present to sign copies of their publications at the Journals table in the book fair.

CHART is proud to present this special talk with artist and icon ORLAN (FR) in conversation with curator at WIELS, Helena Kritis (BE). ORLAN works across media that range from sculpture and performance to augmented reality and robotics. Often mixed with humour, ORLAN’s work interrogates the phenomena of society and shakes up pre-established social codes.

ORLAN has been invited to speak at CHART in collaboration with MoNDA, Museum of Nordic Digital Art, a new institution that will officially launch at CHART 2022.

ORLAN’s work can be experienced in MoNDA’s AR Sculpture Park in the courtyard at Charlottenborg and as part of the cinema programme inside Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

Presented by Arvinius + Orfeus Publishing, Swedish artist Björn Wessmann and gallerist Kjell-Åke Gustavsson will join CHART’s Book Fair for a conversation about the importance of trusting the collaboration between artist and gallerist. They will focus on the distinctly different periods in Wessmann’s artistic practice based on his autobiography PANGEA, as well as a looking back on his changing sources of inspiration over the years.

The talk will take place in the Book Fair Lounge.

For CHART 2022, Anders Lee-Larsen will sign his book Rasputitsa, a poetic work on the first 21 days of the war in Ukraine. It is not about the outcome of the war, the unfolding of history in victories and defeat, but instead a movement into the essence of war.

The signing is presented by hurricane publishing and will take place at their table at the book fair.

Heidi Hart’s book ‘Climate Thanatology’ (2022) is based on research in environmental humanities and experience with ‘music thanatology’. In the book, Heidi Hart describes her collaborations with artists in the US and Scandinavia as they relate to climate thanatology (the practice of mourning the passing of familiar ecosystems) and asks how we might begin to instigate new patterns of more sustainable behaviour.

Harrt will sign copies of her book at Really Simple Syndication Press’ table at the book fair.

For CHART 2022, Lisa Strömbeck will join us for a book signing of her book ‘In Bed’ (2022), a series of photographs that center around the hierarchical relationship between humans and animals. Often zoomed in on specific details, Strömbeck’s photographs seem to render their subjects largely anonymous. The more the artist isolates and removes, the more important the details become.

The signing is presented by Woodpecker Projects and will take place at their table in the book fair.

Thirty years ago, Magnus Cederlund moved from Stockholm to Copenhagen, and has lived and worked there ever since. His first book, ‘Skin Close’ (2018), which uses portraiture to document the range of people he has met in the Danish capital over the years, also includes an afterword by Keith Thomas Lohse.

Two years later came 'Intime', which also focuses on people, but now photographed in a specific locale: the iconic gay bar Cafe Intime in Frederiksberg.

The signing is presented by Journal and will take place at their table in the book fair.

CHART is proud to welcome UBS as a new key partner and to co-host a talk on what it takes to create a more sustainable (art) world. Inviting representatives from the gallery scene, the conversation will take place between Victoria Siddall, Non-Executive Director of Frieze and Co-Founder and Trustee of Gallery Climate Coalition and Claus Andersen CHART co-founder and gallerist in a conversation moderated by Christl Novakovic, CEO of UBS Europe SE and Head Wealth Management Europe at UBS.

Presented by hurricane publishing, Anders Lee-Larsen will read from Rasputitsa, his poetic work on the first 21 days of the war in Ukraine. It is not about the outcome of the war, the unfolding of history in victories and defeat, but instead a movement into the essence of war. Through Rasputitsa runs the nerve of 2022, where everyone has a camera and we follow the war directly from individuals in the crossfire; these voices are included unedited via their tweets, so the work collects a polyphonic choir of voices.

Thorbjørn Sørensen (NO) is an artist in constant search for painterly possibilities, working with naturalistic watercolours, figurative works and fully abstract paintings. His motifs are often inspired by day-to-day life and overlooked scenes or unnoticed objects. His works are distinctly relaxed and playful, but at the same time maintain a strong and subtle relationship to the history of painting.

For the talk at CHART 2022, Sørensen will be joined by longstanding director of Henie Onstad Kunstsenter, and newly appointed director at MUNCH, Tone Hansen. The talk will focus on the artist’s practice and will take Sørensen and Hansen’s shared interest in tennis as a starting point.

New paintings by Thorbjørn Sørensen will also be on-view in a solo presentation by OSL Contemporary at Kunsthal Charlottenborg

niilas helander is a Sami poet, artist and writer whose work is concerned with history, cultural memory, politics and representation. His practice focuses particularly on issues around land, language, migration and decolonisation.

For CHART 2022, niilas helander has been invited by Kunsthall Oslo to produce a short performance which will take place at the entrance of Charlottenborg, continue up the staircase leading to Festsalen and end in the book fair lounge.

‘Enterprise’ is a new video work by artists Freja Sofie Kirk and Kamil Dossar. Based on three unreleased songs from August Rosenbaum’s forthcoming album, the video will premiere in a special screening, in advance of August Rosenbaum’s performance in the courtyard of Charlottenborg the same evening.

Led by a slight breeze, we are taken from an empty house in the suburbs of Las Vegas to the surrounding desert. The house seems to almost migrate with the deserted landscapes and we are left with a feeling that “the home” exists as a standardised construction - its architecture and interior only brought to life by wind and music.

The duration of the video is 10 minutes and will loop continuously between 18:00 and 19:00.

Specialising in improvised compositions and performances that foster intimate and immersive environments, Danish pianist and composer August Rosenbaum will play a live concert in the Charlottenborg courtyard on Friday evening.

Rosenbaum has frequently collaborated with leading figures and organisations from across the Copenhagen music scene; recently he teamed up with CTM (Cæcilie Trier), Ea Verdoner and Lea Guldditte Hestelund to produce the sound installation ‘Celeste’ (2021) at Copenhagen Contemporary, the soundtrack to which was released by Posh Isolation.

For CHART 2022, Rosenbaum will be joined by special guest Coco O. for an unmissable performance presented by Politiken.

Copenhagen-based Elias Bender Rønnenfelt is a musician and poet. He is the lead singer and lyricist of the Danish punk rock band Iceage, whose most recent album 'Seek Shelter' was released in 2021 by Mexican Summer.

Having played at CHART multiple times over the years, Rønnenfelt will deliver an eclectic mix of favourite tracks on the occasion of CHART’s 10th edition in the open air of Charlottenborg Courtyards for the Friday night.

ML Buch (Marie Louise Buch) will be playing her signature electronic synth-heavy pieces: guitar based songs with strong melodies and cinematic instrumentals as connective tissue - like a score to an imagined movie or an open-world game.

Danish composer, producer and vocalist ML Buch seeks to explore the realm between experimental and pop sounds. In 2020 she released her critically acclaimed debut album Skinned on the Danish imprint Anyines. A luminous album with expansive guitar work and catchy melodies, visually accompanied by self-produced music videos as well as a full album-length video. ML Buch has contributed to releases by artists like CTM, Astrid Sonne and Jura.

The concert is one in a series of concerts presented by Brodie Sessions for CHART 2022.

This event is sold out. Doors open at 19:30 pm.

Astrid Engberg is a Danish producer, singer, and DJ. 'Tulpa', her self-produced debut album, was released during the COVID-19 pandemic to wide critical acclaim. Engberg is also a guest DJ at DR P8Jazz and a former resident DJ at MMH Radio (CPH) and Balamii (UK). Both as a producer and DJ, Engberg moves fluidly between genres.

For CHART 2022, Astrid Engberg will play an eclectic mix of sounds, blending gnawa with organic grooves, jazz-influence and electronic gems.

Copenhagen based DJ and local legend Prom Night (aka Shaquille Beck Mc Gosh) grew up around an eclectic record collection brimming with soul, funk, R'n'B, disco, jazz and hip hop. The impact of these early experiences can be heard throughout his work, and his DJ sets are known for spanning from disco to Italo house, Afro-house and beyond as he regularly plays in Scandinavia’s biggest clubs.

For CHART 2022, Prom Night will close out the Friday night music programme with a set of feel-good dance music that is sure to channel irresistible 80s vibes.

Naima Bock will perform an intimate set of songs from her recently released and critically acclaimed debut album 'Giant Palm (Sub Pop/Memorials of Distinction)'. The artist will be accompanied by violinist Oliver Hamilton (caroline/Shovel Dance Collective/etc.). Bock's combination of disparate influences include English Folk, Brazilian bossa nova and beyond.

Born in Glastonbury to a Brazilian father and a Greek mother, Naima Bock spent her early childhood in Brazil before eventually returning to England. This heritage of Brazilian standards and European folk traditions partners well with the pursuits that interest her today: studies in archaeology, work as a gardener, and walking nature’s great trails. Bock’s music draws from family, the earth and the handing down of music through generations.

The concert is one in a series of concerts presented by Brodie Sessions for CHART 2022.

This event is sold out. Doors open at 21:30 pm.

In two special screenings in the cinema at CHART, the artist ORLAN will present their film “La liberté en écorchée et deux ORLAN corps” (2015). The film is presented in collaboration with a new artist-run institution: MoNDA – Museum of Nordic Digital Art, launching at CHART 2022.

In the video ‘La liberté en écorchée et deux ORLAN corps,’ ORLAN presents a computer-generated rendering of the artist’s flayed body, as a self-portrait. Engaging in dialogue with themes relating to racism, feminism and the idea of the cyborg, the figure depicted in this self-portrait assumes the role of the Statue of Liberty, showing how essential freedom is to any artist working with their body in a social, political, sexual and/or religious context.

The video will be presented in the cinema on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th August at 12:00.

To mark the release of his new book ‘When You Invent the Ship, You Also Invent the Shipwreck’, Peter Funch will discuss his work, practice and professional relationship, of more than 20 years, with Jesper Elg, director and co-founder, together with Funch, of V1 Gallery.

The talk is presented by At Last Books and will take place in the book fair lounge. The talk will also be followed by a book signing with the artist at At Last Books' table.

Camilla Engström’s (SE) paintings are known for their depiction of bucolic and metaphysical landscapes, celebrating the healing properties of nature as well as its spiritual energy, in a manner that owes much to Hilma af Klint. Camilla Engström has in recent years been in contact with Hilma af Klint’s great-nephew Johan af Klint with whom she has developed a close friendship and mutually supportive professional dialogue.

Meet them both in this special artist talk about new spirituality in contemporary painting and the legacy of one of the great pioneers of abstract art. The talk will be moderated by assistant curator at the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Orin Zahra.

At CHART 2022, Bladr will launch 'Snow Studies' (2022), the new book by visual artist and curator Sara Lubich. Exhibited at Bladr earlier this year in the form of a wall collage, the project has a now been re-interpreted as a limited edition hand-sewn riso publication that will be released at a book signing event with the artist at Bladr’s table in the book fair.

Peter Funch will sign copies of his latest book ‘When You Invent the Ship, You Also Invent the Shipwreck’ (2022), a stream of images taken over the past 25 years from his vast archive, photographs that have all arisen from Funch’s persistent curiosity in relation to the world around him.

The signing will take place at At Last Books’ table at the book fair and will be preceded by a talk between Funch and gallerist Jesper Elg about the publication, taking place at 12:00 in the book fair lounge.

'Sleeping State of Being (Creatures of Night and Day)' (2022) is the second in a series of reproduced sketchbooks, where artist Sara Skorgan Teigen works with both photographic and hand-drawn material.

The books have a personal approach where Teigen deals with a specific aspect of human experience. In 'Sleeping State of Being,' she takes a closer look at different levels of consciousness and in particular at the concept of sleep.

The book will officially launch with Journal at CHART with the signing taking place at their table.

For CHART 2022, the vocal ensemble ilinx will perform three original compositions by artist Eau Pernice: ‘Lamoc nå lamoc’, ‘Sternluz and Be wræ’ and ‘ne wræ, se wræ’, songs that, in their reverse, are well-known pop songs.

Eau Pernice works in the intersection of visual arts, musical composition and writing and is represented by C.C.C. Gallery.

Presented by Politiken, the performance will take place in front of Politiken’s pavilion in the courtyard of Charlottenborg.

Throughout the years, we have seen how private art collections and initiatives have developed to become public destinations, adding new value to the broader arts community as well as new sites of activity to local areas. In this talk, key figures from Wanås and Artipelag (two central Swedish art institutions - the first, a non-profit foundation and the other privately funded) will discuss their guiding principles.

In a conversation moderated by independent curator and writer Stephanie Cristello, Baltzar and Kristina Wachtmeister of Wanås will talk about the history of their organisation and their commitment to supporting local communities.

For CHART 2022, you can join us for a reading by Lotten Pålsson of her new book 'Doubledawn,' which functions as a low-key "drama," using photography, sculpture, and text to question the relationship between humanity and the world around us.

Presented by Woodpecker Projects, the reading will take place in the book fair lounge and will be followed immediately afterwards by a signing with the artist.

For CHART 2022, you can join us for a reading by Julie Sass of her new book Vandretilstande which includes 12 drawings and 40 texts revolving around a person walking in a landscape. The rhythm of each piece is slow and repetitive, with condensed observations of the surroundings, bodies, colors, and surfaces.

Presented by hurricane publishing and Really Simple Syndication Press, the reading will take place in the book fair lounge with an introduction by Karen Elsebeth and actress Ditte Maria-le-Fevre. Following the reading, Sass will do a signing of Vandretilstande as well as Image: temporary constellation in the lounge.

“What if women ruled the world?” Yael Bartana stages the question in ‘Two Minutes to Midnight’ (2021, 48 mins) where the all-women government of an imaginary country must reach a unanimous decision regarding an imminent nuclear threat from a foreign nation. A panel of fictional characters and real-life experts in fields such as defence, law, politics and psychology, convene in a democratic ‘Peace Room’, mirroring the masculine ‘War Room’ in Stanley Kubrick’s classic Cold War satire, ‘Dr. Strangelove’. The women are tasked with deciding how to approach the prescribed situation. Bartana’s visionary work is the synthesis of an interdisciplinary four-year process that analyses the great geopolitical power game, and presents us with an alternative to macho-oriented power discourse.

Following the screening, meet Yael Bartana in conversation with senior curator of contemporary art at the MUNCH Museum, Tominga O’Donnell.

'Two Minutes To Midnight' is presented in cooperation with Cecilia Hillström Gallery, Stockholm.

'HOLOGRAM' (2022) by Peter Larsen is a giant artist book (45x32 cm) consisting of a series of drawings made during the fall of 2021, printed via silkscreen. Peter Larsen’s artistic practice encompasses various modes of expression, including painting, drawing, ceramics, etching, screenprinting and lithography. His artworks reference both surrealist imagery and modernist explorations of playful subjects.

The book signing will take place at CULT PUMP’s table at the book fair.

Through separate dialogues with various writers, in ‘Image: Temporary Constellation’ (2022) Julie Sass initiates an exploration of individual pieces from her œuvre, tapping into a collective unconscious and investigating the life of artwork in the social sphere. The resulting publication is a rich tapestry of reflections from authors such as Mikkel Bogh, Dina Vester Feilberg, Jeannene Przyblyski, and Barry Schwabsky.

Following the book reading presented by hurricane publishing and Really Simple Syndication Press, Sass will sign her books 'Image: Temporary Constellation' and 'Vandretilstande' and it will take place in the book fair lounge.

Following her reading in the book fair lounge, Lotten Pålsson will be signing her new book ‘Doubledawn,’ which functions as a low-key "drama," using photography, sculpture, and text to question the relationship between humanity and the world around us.

Presented by Woodpecker Projects, the reading will take place at their table at the book fair.

Photographer Susanne Otterberg's third book is a declaration of love for her hometown Gothenburg.

Speaking about the project, Otterberg reflects: "Gamlestan is an old and important industrial and working-class district with a long history. The neighbourhood has a tarnished reputation but is now becoming trendy. New infrastructure and new residential buildings are growing like mushrooms out of the ground. The old industrial premises are filled with cafes, restaurants, housing and cultural activities. The old town's facades are plastered, but nothing can take away its history.

I myself have lived in Gamlestan with my family for many years, in the same house that my grandmother, grandfather and mother all lived in."

‘From Gamlestan With Love’ (2022) will be launched at CHART 2022 with Journal; the signing will take place at Journal’s table in the book fair.

For CHART 2022, the vocal ensemble ilinx will perform three original compositions by artist Eau Pernice: ‘Lamoc nå lamoc’, ‘Sternluz and Be wræ’ and ‘ne wræ, se wræ’, songs that, in their reverse, are well-known pop songs.

Eau Pernice works in the intersection of visual arts, musical composition and writing and is represented by C.C.C. Gallery.

Presented by Politiken, the performance will take place in front of Politiken’s pavilion in the courtyard of Charlottenborg.

Artist-duo Espen Friberg and Marianne R. Arnesen (E.F.M.R.A.) primarily work with collective drawings, made intuitively and collaboratively one line at a time. Friberg and Arnesen will each present their individual practices as illustrator and artist respectively, and their common projects as E.F.M.R.A. - which includes a new publication: ‘DEN DEN’.

Their presentation will also include a live drawing session set to original music made by the duo.

The performance and presentation will be presented by Pamflett with Norsk Risoforening and will take place in the book fair lounge.

On the occasion of their CHART participation, a small edition of screen printed t-shirts by E.F.M.R.A. and Pamflett will also be available at Pamflett with Risoforeningen’s booth.

Using video, sculpture and photography, artist Sofia Hultén (SE) reveals the inalienable characteristics of everyday objects. The individual histories of articles, like a steam roller or a sofa cushion, are contained in a patina of rust, scratches and dirt. Sofia Hultén finds integrity and dignity in these materials while the performative aspect of her practice embraces the absurd spirit of television sitcoms.

For CHART 2022, we are delighted to present a conversation between Hultén and Marianne Dobner, curator at mumok.

Sofia Hultén’s work will also be on view in a solo presentation by Galerie Nordenhake.

In 2018, artist Dominik Lejman (PL) received the prestigious Visual Arts Prize from the Akademie der Künste in recognition for his contributions to the medium of painting and, in particular, for his engagement with time. His beautiful, abstract canvases provide a temporary stage for light-painting performances that explore themes of human anonymity as well as the struggle against political determinism in a modern, technological world.

For CHART 2022, we are delighted to present a conversation between Dominik Lejman and Yuvinka Medina, senior curator at Bonniers Konsthall.

Recent work by Lejman will also be on-view with Persons Projects as part of a group presentation in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

Sofie Birch is a sound artist and producer known for her extensive work with soft ambient releases, live shows, animation films and art installations. With electronic hardware and field recordings, she creates melodic compositions that are produced with a sense of brightness encouraging her listeners to dream and dwell.

For CHART 2022, Birch will perform a spirited DJ set in the Charlottenborg Courtyard, exploring the healing nature of sound and vibration.

Join us for a concert by Ydegirl, who’s music intertwines past and present destinies in a universe of swamp pop, R'n'B elements, and Nordic chamber music. Classical instruments play alongside drums, electric guitar, and synthesizers, with Ydegirl’s alluring voice hovering somewhere in the middle, singing about feelings of the past, present and future; about existing in a state of limbo; and of split thoughts in unique, sonic compositions.

Ydegirl is the alias of Danish producer and songwriter Andrea Novel. The name derives from a 2000-year-old teenager, who was found in a bog in the town of Yde in 1897. Ydegirl released her much-praised debut EP 'notes19 (Escho)' in 2019, a collection of beautiful and particular songs that present themselves as a kind of diary.

The concert is one in a series of concerts presented by Brodie Sessions for CHART 2022.

Over the course of the last 15 years or so, Christian d’Or has been a permanent, left-field fixture on the Copenhagen music and nightlife scene. His compelling and personal take on the culture of music, coupled with his ability for matching old records with the sound of now, has seen him carve out a resilient space for himself within the restless Copenhagen music scene.

Growing up as a hip hop kid in Holstebro, Denmark, Christian's love of the vinyl record pushed him further into nuanced musical horizons and increasingly esoteric vibrations. Today, Christian’s name represents a singular perspective on musical freedom, centered around the amorphous blobs of musical energy known as soul, jazz, disco, house and psychedelia.

If an unholy human hybrid of Skatebård and DJ Harvey walked the Earth and ran a music-flavored vintage store in Copenhagen’s culturally diverse Nørrebro neighbourhood, it might look a lot like Christian d’Or.

Producers and member of Danish alt-pop band Liss Vilhelm Strange og Tobias Laust will deliver an eclectic mix of music to move to.

For his performance at CHART, Jens Lekman will be trying out new material for an upcoming album. Lekman’s music combines samples and arrangements with witty, tender songwriting.

Jens Lekman is a songwriter from the other side of Kattegat, Gothenburg, Sweden. He has released six albums since 2003 through Secretly Canadian Records. In between albums, he engages in various projects like ghostwriting random people’s life stories as songs ('Ghostwriting,' 2015) or sending musical letters to a friend ('Correspondence,' 2019).

The concert is one in a series of concerts presented by Brodie Sessions for CHART 2022.

Danish DJ Jonas Visti has for the past few years travelled extensively around the globe, collecting records to play on his weekly radio show 'Vistis Vinyler', broadcast via Danish public radio station P8 Jazz.

Visti’s tastes cannot easily be categorised, and whether he is playing a gig or on the radio, his sets incorporate a wide range of influences, from house to jazz, afrobeats, psychedelic rock and much more.

No matter what he’s playing, Visti’s mixes are guided by a close attention towards cultural history.

For CHART 2022, artist Kaarina Kaikkonen has created a site-specific installation for the façade of Charlottenborg, facing towards the historical plaza at Kongens Nytorv. Shaped like a monumental blooming flower, the work will both highlight the entrance to CHART and extend the dialogue with contemporary art, out of Charlottenborg and into the city centre.

The installation is composed of hundreds of recycled shirts, pointing towards the historical consistency of humanity’s basic needs, regardless of period, cultural paradigm or environmental conditions.

The installation is kindly supported by Frame Contemporary Art Finland as well as Kulturfonden for Danmark og Finland.

Kaarina Kaikkonen’s work will also be on-view with Galerie Forsblom inside Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, BERG Contemporary will present two historical works by video art pioneers Steina and Woody Vasulka. ‘Soundsize’ (1974) showcases the Vasulkas' investigation into the relationship between sound and image, as a pattern of dots is modulated by sounds generated from a synthesizer, changing size and shape as a visual manifestation of electronic sound.

In ‘Heraldic View’ (1974), an oscillator-generated pattern drifts over a camera image of bricks and stone. Throughout, the patterns are modulated by sharp bursts of voltage generated by an audio synthesizer.

The artworks are included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair. Other works by the Vasulkas will be presented by BERG Contemporary in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, BERG Contemporary will present a video by Sigurður Guðjónsson entitled ‘Lightroom’ (2018). An enchanting space, lit up by an old slide projector, is documented with a high-definition camera. In the process, the mechanical movement of processes that are not usually visible become perceptible via an audio-visual experience.

Guðjónsson often manipulates outdated devices to give them a new abstract life. In the process, he extracts the poetic beauty from technology, revealing a productive mechanism at the point where old meets the new.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

Sigurður Guðjónsson’s works will also be presented by BERG Contemporary in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, Galerie Anhava will present a video by Jani Ruscica entitled ‘No Dot on the I’ (2021). The work questions specificity, what constitutes the essence of something and the point at which a thing might turn into something else. It does so by pushing against the edges of signs, binaries, and categories. Specificity takes place when essence becomes meaning and it transforms itself into a sign, a word, an index, a sentence and finally a book that is put on a shelf and left there. Ruscica’s aim is to disrupt this order.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

Jani Ruscica’s works will also be presented at Galerie Anhava in Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

As part of Bladr’s presentation at CHART, they have invited Kristian B. Johansson and Wilfred Wagner from the former KLD Repro to host the performance workshop ‘Table of Content,’ where each publisher participating at CHART Book Fair is invited to contribute to the production of an on-site catalogue.

Kristian B. Johansson and Wilfred Wagner will collect material from each of the publishers at the book fair and reproduce them as a risograph print catalogue, available for purchase on Saturday and Sunday during CHART.

For CHART 2022, Dorothée Nilsson Gallery will present a video by Julia Peirone entitled “I am not blonde” (2022), in which the artist asks a series of girls to recreate Marilyn Monroe’s iconic appearance. Expanding on Peirone’s signature interests, the work explores aspects of vulnerability, shame, and sexuality in a time when social media is coming to play an increasingly significant role in the construction of individual identities.

In ‘I am not blonde’ the artist positions a camera in front of consecutive subjects, assuming the POV of a mirror, thus capturing a sequence of intimate moments as these girls consciously or unconsciously explore how classic signifiers of femininity - painted lips, long eyelashes - can be used to create masks to hide behind or provide access to elevated positions of power. In conjunction with the filming process for ‘I am not blonde’, Peirone also captured a series of portraits showing the girls in full make-up, which are currently on display at Liljevalchs in Stockholm.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

MoNDA - Museum of Nordic Digital Art is one of the first artist-run, pop-up initiatives in the Nordic region with a specific focus on Nordic and international contemporary art which makes use of new technologies in art such as: augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), 3D print-and-scan methods and blockchain technology as it relates to so-called NFTs (non-fungible tokens).

Launching at CHART 2022, MoNDA will present a selection of new works from the museum in the foyer at Charlottenborg.

For CHART 2022, Galleria Heino presents a video by Lauri Astala entitled ‘Sketch for the Last Map’ (2022). The work was shot between several cities in Belgium, South Korea, India, France, Turkey and Uruguay between 2014 and 2020. Overlapping layered images of indoor and outdoor spaces are displayed – as if the buildings had become translucent. The individual image layers of which each “situation” in the film are comprised, are all taken from the same city and some even from the exact same place.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

In the foyer of Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Gernes-Fonden will present works from one of Poul Gernes’ (1921-1996) iconic Masonite series, executed for his decoration of the basement at the Panum Institute in Copenhagen around 1980.

The Panum series consists of various stylized flower motifs, each framed by an ornamented frieze. Each flower is symmetrically arranged around a central axis creating a kind of folksy harmony in a space intended to dissect body parts at the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences.

Gernes-Fonden is a non-profit charitable foundation supporting artists contributing to contemporary society, and expanding knowledge around the life and work of Poul Gernes.

In the courtyard at CHART, the new artist-run Museum of Nordic Digital Art (MoNDA) will present a new augmented reality (AR) sculpture park. The exhibition will feature three-dimensional digital artworks created by pioneering contemporary digital artists such as ORLAN (FR), Auriea Harvey (US), Kathrin Hunze (DE), Ida Kvetny (DK) and Sabrina Ratté (CA).

You can view the exhibition at CHART by scanning QR codes, displayed on the signs in the courtyard, with your mobile phone.

The AR sculpture park and the launch of MoNDA is kindly supported by Nordisk Kulturfond.

The work ‘Everything is Real’ by Danish artist Aske Olsen has been created for the exhibition ‘Another Surrealism’ opening at Den Frie on 25 August. During CHART, the work will be presented in the courtyard of Charlottenborg before relocating to its place in front of Den Frie.

‘Everything is Real’ is a complex collage built from poetic statements, artistic fragments and loose references and associations. Consisting of two LED screens placed on a trailer, the work simulates the format of moving-image advertisements as they can often be seen across big cities, referencing the incessant bombardment and production of images that characterises much of our contemporary experience.

For CHART 2022, Galleri Steinsland Berliner will present ‘Domino’ (2016) by Akay & Olabo.

The film depicts a discontinued lumber yard where a wealth of material has been left behind. What’s the harm in making sure things don’t go to waste? This film explores how small actions can have big consequences.

Akay & Olabo have a history of setting up illicit installations and various other creative vandalisms in public places. Their recent collaborations have taken them out of traditional urban spaces and into areas that have been designated as “off-limits”: condemned warehouses, empty office buildings, decommissioned timber yards and the like.

They’ve gained access and had keys made to half a dozen abandoned properties around Stockholm. They’ve gone into places where teargas still lingers from police practice drills, where water leaks have transformed rooms into blue-green mold marshes, or where they find a perfectly preserved office environment from the eighties. Most of the time, they end up finding themselves inside an anticlimactic industrial building, where it simply appears everyone left one day and forgot to lock the door.

The artwork is included in the CHART Cinema Programme; a series of videos presented in a loop at the cinema in Kunsthal Charlottenborg throughout the fair.

In two special screenings in the cinema at CHART, the artist ORLAN will present their film “La liberté en écorchée et deux ORLAN corps” (2015). The film is presented in collaboration with a new artist-run institution: MoNDA – Museum of Nordic Digital Art, launching at CHART 2022.

In the video ‘La liberté en écorchée et deux ORLAN corps,’ ORLAN presents a computer-generated rendering of the artist’s flayed body, as a self-portrait. Engaging in dialogue with themes relating to racism, feminism and the idea of the cyborg, the figure depicted in this self-portrait assumes the role of the Statue of Liberty, showing how essential freedom is to any artist working with their body in a social, political, sexual and/or religious context.

The video will be presented in the cinema on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th August at 12:00.

Elephant Kunsthall has the pleasure of presenting an introduction to the tapestries of Oslo-based artist Maria Brinch. Together with Berlin-based curator Andreas Schlaegel and Elephant Kunsthall director Mads Andreassen, Maria will discuss the process of producing her upcoming monograph book project, scheduled for publication with Elephant Kunsthall in January 2023.

The panel discussion will take place in the book fair lounge and will be recorded so the conversation may be included in the final book.

Artists Ed Atkins (UK) and Jockum Nordstöm (SE) meet with architect Valentin Nordström (SE) in a conversation about ideas of the domestic and the homely, themes which inform each of their respective practices, although in different ways.

For CHART 2022, Valentin Nordström has curated a presentation for Galleri Bo Bjerggaard centered around domesticity, including works by Janaina Tschäpe (BR/DE), Tal R (DK), Anna Bjerger (SE), Mamma Andersson (SE) and Jockum Nordström (SE).

The talk will be moderated by Chief Curator at Kunsten Museum of Modern Art, Claire Gould.

Francesca Gavin will sign copies of her latest book ‘Rough Version, The NTS Interviews With Francesca Gavin, 2016-2021’ (2022). The publication consists of a collection of open and frank conversations with artists around art and music, taken from the first five years of the ongoing radio show, 'Rough Version,' on cult online station NTS Radio.

The book will be launched at CHART 2022 by At Last Books and the signing will take place at their table in the book fair.

Line Larsen’s ‘BROADCASTING BACK TO SOURCE’ (2022) is a diaristic tale where she touches upon subjects such as conscious creation, reincarnation, numerology, portals, manifestation, non-physical entities, everyday witchcraft, higher guidance, the power of deliberate focus, the death of linear time, the false self, twin flames, scripting, re-programming of the mind and channelling.

‘BROADCASTING BACK TO SOURCE’ will be launched at CHART Book Fair at CULT PUMP’s table.

In their new book 'The City in the Sandbox' (2022), artists Kristian Byskov and Margarita del Carmen document and analyze their on-the-ground research into how Copenhagen’s staffed playgrounds, and the pedagogical approaches developed there, offer a model for citizen inclusion. Considering the behaviour of both adults and children, the book considers how urban planning decisions play a crucial role in developing more inclusive urban spaces for everyone.

The signing will take place at Really Simple Syndication Press’s table during CHART Book Fair.

At CHART 2022, Journal will launch Karl Henrik Edlund’s new book ‘Eden’ (2022) as will also offer copies of his 2016 publication ‘Bright Hours’ for sale. ‘Eden’ compiles a series of images taken by the Finnish photographer, on the island of the same name, between 2004-2020.

Reflecting on his interest in the specific site of Eden, Edlund writes: “The sea surrounds the island, one of more than 6,700 in the Åland archipelago. The island's solid bedrock with grooves, veins and cracks is shaped by time. Formerly the place was rugged; full of spindly pines, junipers and tall wild grass. Grandfather cleared and planted noble hardwoods from nearby islets. He planted a garden of herbs and berry bushes and fruit trees. At the beach, he cast a concrete seal. The place was called Eden, after the biblical paradise, and our last name.”

‘Bright Hours’, Edlund’s previous publication from 2016, refers to something past – an uncertain place that does not exist, something fragile and indefinite.

The project, which started in 2008, is based on journeys to the Arctic North, Kola Peninsula and Nenets Autonomous Okrug in northwest Russia. The book also contains photographs from other places, like Saint Petersburg and the Åland islands.

The signings with Karl Henrik Edlund will take place at Journal’s table in the book fair.

Following a time of extensive public debate around inclusion, diversity and the re-balancing of art history, three National Gallery directors discuss the current and future role of nationalised art institutions.

The conversation will take place between Karin Hindsbo, director of Nasjonalmuseet in Oslo, Gitte Ørskou, director of Moderna Museet in Stockholm, Mikkel Bogh, director of SMK in Copenhagen, and will be moderated by independent curator and writer, Stephanie Cristello.

Are you passionate about a topic and want to create a community around it? Have you ever wanted to be a published author, poet, illustrator, or artist, but don’t know where to start? Do you enjoy learning new ways of expressing your creative side?

Then join the “Fun with Folds: Free Zine Workshop”, on Aug 28 from 14.30 to 16.30 at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, where we’ll dive into the analog world of zine-making.

Tools and materials are provided, just bring a good mood and maybe an idea or two.

Snøhetta and BIG rank among today’s leading architectural practices. Originating in Scandinavia but with extensive international operations, they have reinvigorated public spaces and set benchmarks for cultural placemaking with notable buildings including Oslo Opera House and Vltava Philharmonic Hall in Prague.

Join Kjetil Thorsen (NO), founding partner of Snøhetta and Bjarke Ingels (DK), founding partner of BIG for a conversation with TF Chan, magazine editor of Wallpaper*, about their design approaches and upcoming projects.

Marie Sjøvold’s art explores timeless themes such as maternity, family, and sleep. Her essay ‘Midnight Milk’ (2015) is a photographic voyage through her own life, as she tries to understand what happens to identity and self-image when we have children.

Sjøvold’s newest book, ‘How Much Silence Can You Take’ (2022), will launch at CHART 2022 with publishing house Journal and the signing of both books will take place at their table in the book fair.
