RIKKE FLENSBERG: 0

RIKKE FLENSBERG - 0

March 7 – April 27, 2019

In the Gallery is proud to present the solo show 0 by Danish photographer Rikke Flensberg. The title of the show refers to zero – a nothing, which is something – a something, which becomes a starting point. From here we enter a world of bodies and landscapes, merging and exchanging properties. Fragments of body parts turn into tectonic surfaces, erupting and shifting. Elements from nature are pushed into new forms, through which our bodily self can physically relate. By zooming in and out between these two scales we are reminded of the inherent relationship held between the human body and the world, which surrounds it.
Rikke Flensberg (1980), lives and works in Copenhagen. She holds an MFA from Malmø Art Academy. Amongst other she has exhibited at Gallery Green Is Gold (DK), Gallery Muratcentoventidue (IT), Galleri Pictura (SE) and The Benetton Foundation (IT).
The exhibition is kindly supported by Knud Højgaards Foundation, Grosserer L.F. Foghts Foundation and Poul Johansen Foundation.

JACOB GILS: NEW WORKS

JACOB GILS : NEW WORKS

January 11– March 2, 2019

Once again, we wnter a new year, which for In The Gallery means our bg annual solo show by Jacob Gils. 

The artistic style of Jacob Gils spams over various subject matters – always unmistakably showcasing his distinct style and interest in the technical attributes of photography. Whether depicting the bodily form through the use of polaroid or old-fashioned glass plate tecniques, or when capturing the fleeting moments in land – and cityscapes by multi-exposing his motifs, Gils always returns to his love for photography as an art form. 

This love does not go unnoticed when viewing his work, and the results always present themselves as both alluring and poetic. These ethereal and uncertain narratives leave it to the human perception and imagination to fill in the remaining blancks. 

Now is the chance to experience what Jacob Gils has been working on over the past year; thus In The Gallery welcomes you to a new year with New Works. 

WINTER LIGHT

WINTER LIGHT

29 Nov – 5 Jan. (closed 22 Dec – 2 Jan)

 

As a conclusion to 2018, whilst darkness still dominates the hours of the day, In The Gallery would like to invite you in for the exhibition Winter Light.

The title of the show clearly reflects the season but the word Light also references the necessity of light in the photographic process. Represented are both artists whom the gallery has long-standing collaborations with as well as a few new additions.

All of the works are in smaller formats, with a price range to match.

 

OLE MARIUS JØRGENSEN: SNIPPETS FROM A TRAVELOGUE

OLE MARIUS JØRGENSEN: SNIPPETS FROM A TRAVELOGUE

4 October – 24 November 2018

 

In the series “Vignettes of a Salesman” Ole Marius Jørgensen stages situations inhabited by a lone traveller. The cinematic and dreamy atmosphere in Jørgensen’s photographs is heavily influenced by his background in film. Surrounded by beautiful rural vistas or situated in deserted locations, such as empty diners, motels or petrol stations, the traveller wanders through a scenery, which leaves us unsure whether we are trudging through actual outer landscapes or complex psychological terrains.

Ole Marius Jørgensen (b. 1976) is a Norwegian photographer, who has exhibited widely in the United States, Asia, and Europe. His work can be found in collections in Hong Kong, Stockholm, Oslo, London, Madrid and Berlin.
He is currently working on a book of his work to be published in 2019.
