  Fra November 01, 2023 17:00 til November 05, 2023 17:00

  Fernisering:

  Sted: Aarhus

  Photobook Week Aarhus, our yearly festival exploring the wonderful world of the photobook, turns ten this year! All are welcome 1 – 5 November 2023, when we celebrate our anniversary with one of our most ambitious programmes to date.  Galleri Image, ARoS

  Aarhus Art Museun, Aarhus School of Architecture, and HEART – Herning Museum of Contemporary Art will once again house a wide variety of curious, creative, and thought-provoking exhibitions, talks and workshops.  Photobook Week 2023 will celebrate a positive outlook, taking a solution-oriented approach to the issues the art world as well as the world at large are faced with, with the overall theme Future Revisited. We will pay homage to Albert Renger Patzsch’s book “Die Welt ist schön” (The World is Beautiful), published 95 years before, and propose a new wave of optimism. This search for the joy of our existence will include a look into the future, and other things that make us happy. Side-themes will include Photonovels, Collages and Children’s Books, while and on the geographical axis we will look at Estonia and the Middle East. This year, the festival will also have a special focus on Artificial Intelligence as an image-making technique and a tool for creating new narratives.  The 10th anniversary of Photobook Week Aarhus will be duly celebrated with a book that explores some of the most important moments in the history of the medium, and our small contribution to it.  After many years with opening events placed on Thursday, this year, we’ve added a full day extra to our festival in order to make space for all the exciting events and exhibitions we have in store. As always, the festival will close with the yearly Sunday photobook market, where you will have the opportunity to buy photobooks from all over the world, both from second-hand dealers and from the publishers and artists themselves.  The festival is a collaboration between Galleri Image and the Aarhus School of Architecture.Visit photobookweek.org to learn more about former editions of the festival and catch the latest updates about Photobook Week Aarhus 2023

  10,000 Years After the Apple by Jeppe Lange

  Fernisering:

  Sted: Galleri Image, Vestergade 29 8000 Aarhus C.

  What do we see when we look at nature? And why don't we see ourselves?Galleri Image presents the exhibition 10,000 Years After the Apple by the Danish visual artist and filmmaker Jeppe Lange. Opening: 10 March, 4-6 pm. 10,000 Years After the Apple explore

  s the absurdities that abound in our world, but which we often take for granted because they’ve become normalized for us. Through video clips and photographs of everything ranging from coal mining to dog shows, Jeppe Lange confronts the viewer with our relationship to nature: How we as humans continue to frame its beauty, exploit its resources and tame its ferocity. The exhibition's centrepiece is a video work consisting of ultra-short film clips from documentary films and private recordings from the internet combined into a dreamlike logic that opens up a collective memory. In addition to the film, a myriad of prints of archival photographs will cover the walls of Galleri Image. The exhibition's soundtrack is created by composer and sound designer Simon Brinck.Art publicationIn connection with the opening, Galleri Image released the art book 10,000 YEARS AFTER THE APPLE, showcasing photographs and stills from the exhibition. The book can be purchased at the gallery.Talk with Jeppe Lange and Rasmus DaugbjergGalleri Image will host a conversation in Danish on 15 April between Jeppe Lange and Rasmus Daugbjerg, author of the novel Trold, where they will discuss the topic of the human relationship to nature from different perspectives. Daugbjerg approaches the topic with a focus on the origin of how we became alienated from nature, while Lange’s works explore how this division is visible all around us today. About the artistJeppe Lange (b. 1987) is Danish visual artist based in Copenhagen with an MFA from the Royal Danish Art Academy. Lange works with video art and experimental documentaries that often deal with memories, perception, and time. His works have been exhibited all over the world, including Norway, Malaysia, Spain, France and South Korea. Lange has also been nominated for several awards, such as the Doc Alliance Award, New:Vision Award at CPH:DOX and Politiken:DOX, all in 2022, and in 2018 he was a recipent of a Young Directors Award at Cannes Lion. https://www.jeppelange.dk/ The exhibition is supported by the Danish Arts Foundation, the city of Aarhus (Kulturudviklingspuljen), the Louis Hansen Foundation and the Obel Family Foundation.
