The Charlottenborg Spring Exhibition is one of the most important open, censored exhibitions in Europe and has been held annually at Charlottenborg since 1857. It originated as an exhibition showing new works by Danish artists, but today includes participants from many countries. Over the years, the exhibition has presented works by great internationally renowned artists such as Alvar Aalto, Per Kirke by, Olafur Eliasson, Super flex and many others. The exhibition is organised by Charlottenborg Fonden.
The exhibition allows a considerable number of artists to participate in a major international project and has over the years provided the first significant platform for many emerging artists, while also presenting important new pieces by more established figures.
This year 45 Danish and international artists and artist groups has been selected by the jury among the 657 applications. A total of 78 works are on display this year created by well-established artists, but also by emerging
talents from Denmark and Europe as well as Iran, Israel, South Korea, Turkey and USA.
