Projects      

2003/2004

 

 

* “Envisioning the Future”. Project led by Judy Chicago and Donald Woodman. A group of artists collaborated to create an exhibition showing the ways in which the future –be it personal, community or global- might be constructed.

 
       

1996

 

 

 

  Book Project “2021”. 25 artists (Danish musicians, writers, film-makers, and fine artists) were invited to participate in a collaborate book project published under the title “2021”. Each artist were to give his or hers commentary on life now (1996) and in the future in a short story. Apart from the short story, each person was asked to envision the future 25 years later – year 2021. These “predictions” were kept secret, put in a box that was bricked up in a wall at the Museum of the Workers in Copenhagen. We, the 25 artists, are to meet again in year 2021 for the full circle of then and now. We will read out our predictions.
