February 24th is the opening for Forårsudstillingen 2012 (The Spring Exhibition 2012) at Kunsthal Charlottenborg in Copenhagen, Denmark. Four of my photographs were included in the exhibition, all from the series “A Reunion of Lost People.” Forårsudstillingen is one of the most important open submission exhibitions in Europe, and has been held annually in Copenhagen since 1857. The exhibition is held at “one of the largest and most beautiful spaces for contemporary art in Europe.” For the Spring Exhibition 2012 there were 715 applicants. 70 artists have been selected, including 66 first-time participants and a total of 92 works. The youngest artist was born in 1990 and the oldest in 1949. 31 artists come from Denmark, 15 from the rest of the Nordic region, 18 from other European countries, and 6 from other countries around the world. The end date for the exhibition is May 6th, 2012.
