Please join us Saturday 26 August 3.30–5pm for an afternoon at O—Overgaden that highlights the exhibition by Rasmus Myrup, queer sculptor and renegade-naturalist mythmaker, which is created as part of a new collaboration between O—Overgaden (Institute of Contemporary Art, Copenhagen) and GIBCA (the Gothenburg International Biennial for Contemporary Art) and functions as a prelude to his grand-scale commission opening 16 September 2023 in Gothenburg.
Known for his long-term investment in building a tongue-in-cheek update of the pan-Nordic Norse pantheon of folkloric folks, Rasmus Myrup connects the Scandinavian harbor cities of Copenhagen and Gothenburg through his mythological diggings.
For this open-for-all celebration, the bar will serve refreshments and Myrup’s recently published first book, The Völva’s Bestiary of Best Friends, will be on sale.
On show this Saturday 11am-6pm is also the new shows (by Anna Rettl, Cally Spooner & collaborators, and Rasmus Myrup).
Admission to O–Overgaden is always free.
