As part of the 2026 exhibition program, O—Overgaden is proud to present a large-scale exhibition by coyote, opening on Friday 22 May 2026 and running through Sunday 2 August 2026.
As the artist collective coyote opens their first major institutional exhibition at O—Overgaden, they focus on how working together as a group can create alternative spaces and narratives. The exhibition is rooted in the same core principle that defines coyote itself: the collective. Through this, they reflect on how different forms of community shape everyday life in the contemporary city and, not least, how the city itself becomes a kind of stage set for social relations and networks. In the exhibition at O—Overgaden, coyote draws site-specific connections both to the kunsthalle’s own history as a grassroots-oriented “artists’ house,” and outward to the historical, collectivist local community of Christianshavn.
For the opening coyote has invited visual artist Annika Eriksson to re-stage her video work Copenhagen Postmen’s Orchestra from 1996. The performance will take place at 19:00.
