Kathrine Ærtebjerg
Tak til verden (Hindbær)
21.08 – 04.10.2025
KATHRINE ÆRTEBJERG
Tak til verden (Hindbær)
Galerie Mikael Andersen is pleased to invite you to the opening
of the exhibition Tak til verden (Hindbær) with new works by Kathrine Ærtebjerg, on Thursday, August 21, 2025, from 5-7 PM.
The exhibition is a gesamtkunstwerk consisting of drawings, paintings, photographs, and music.
The title ”Tak til verden (Hindbær) is taken from Ærtebjerg’s debut music album Hindbær, which will be officially released on LP, CD and digital on September 18. Galerie Mikael Andersen will host a release party and live performance of the album on that day from 7-9 PM.
Both ”Tak til verden” and ”Hindbær” are songs on the album, which features 10 tracks written and composed by Ærtebjerg, and performed by her as vocalist.
Kathrine Ærtebjerg’s new artworks were created with her new music in mind. The imagery in the pieces is drawn from her songs, which explores themes such as nature, animals, motherhood, femininity, loneliness, spirituality, and love. Both the songs and the visual works are existential and narrative in character, unfolding in surreal and fairy-tale-like settings. Plants, animals, and humans coexist in animated universes where reality and fantasy merge.
The drawings in the exhibition are black-and-white ink works made with brush and a spray-like painting technique. The paintings are done, as usual, in acrylic, spray paint, and oil on canvas. The photographs feature the artist herself and are taken with a self-timer. The music playing in the exhibition is from upcoming album Hindbær; selected tracks are played both with and without vocals.
The exhibition clearly shows how Ærtebjerg is able to evolve and expand her artistic field while maintaining her consistent themes, personal style, and distinct identity.
Ærtebjerg works playfully and inquisitively with painting, drawing, sculpture, animation, and photography. While songwriting and music releases are new for Ærtebjerg, she has expressed herself through words and music as part of her artistic practice for many years, and she made her debut as a poet in the literary magazine Hvedekorn in 1989.
For further information about the exhibition and press images, please contact the gallery at +45 33 33 05 12 or by e-mail a cph@mikaelandersen.com. The exhibition runs until October 4, 2025. Opening hours: Tuesday-Friday 12-6 PM, Saturday 11 AM-3 PM.
Sincerely,
Galerie Mikael Andersen
