Malm2

Malmo Konsthall, Malmo

It is now almost two years since the first exhibition, Malm1, was presented. This autumn, it is time to present the second edition. The twelve artists featured in Malm1 have each chosen an artist for this year’s exhibition. The relay baton has been passed on to the next group of artists, who are exhibiting in Malm2:

Ulf Carlsson Born 1962 in Doderhult, Sweden. Lives and works in Malmo. Ylva Friberg Born 1973 in Stockholm, Sweden. Lives and works in Malmo. Leif Holmstrand Born 1972 in Eksjo, Sweden. Lives and works in Malmo. Peter Holst Henckel Born 1966 in Frederiksberg, Denmark. Lives and works in Copenhagen.

Sophia Kalkau Born 1960 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Lives and works in Copenhagen. David Krantz Born 1965 in Stockholm, Sweden. Lives and works in Malmo. Truls Melin Born 1958 in Malmo, Sweden. Lives and works in Copenhagen. Julie Nord Born 1970 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Lives and works in Copenhagen. Hans Egede Scherer Born 1975 in Helsingborg, Sweden. Lives and works in Malmo. Tina Scherzberg Born 1973 in Mulheim an der Ruhr, Germany. Lives and works in Copenhagen.

Andreas Schulenburg Born 1975 in Hamburg, Germany. Lives and works in Copenhagen. Eva Steen Christensen Born 1969 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Lives and works in Copenhagen.

The aim of the Malm exhibitions is to promote and present every other year contemporary art from our part of the world here at Malmo Konsthall. Artists from the Oresund Region are invited to take part and given the opportunity to exhibit new work. The purpose is to give us a broader insight into the dynamic and exciting art scene which is in our immediate vicinity and which so many people elsewhere in the world are talking about and exhibiting. Malmo has been called the City of Art, and we now wish to highlight the entire Oresund Region as an interesting and exciting art region. (Malm is the Swedish word for ore, from which one or more valuable elements or minerals can be extracted.)

The exhibition has the nature of a relay race, in which the artists featured in the most recent exhibition select the participants in the next one. The artists in Malm1 were Eric Andersen, Martin Erik Andersen, Nathalie Djurberg, Keld Helmer-Petersen, Lisa Jeannin, Jesper Just, Peter Land, Tova Mozard, Johan Roing, John Skoog, Astrid Svangren, and Kirstine Vaaben.

Welcome to the press viewing on Thursday 7 September at 11 am.

The opening is on Friday 8 September from 7-9 pm.
