The Spring Exhibition

The Spring Exhibition is one of the most important open submission exhibitions in Northern Europe, and has been held annually at Charlottenborg since 1857. Submissions can be made by artists of any nationality and country of residence, and may fall into a wide range of genres associated with visual art, architecture, crafts and design.

The Spring Exhibition has long been one of the highlights of the annual programme at Charlottenborg, and has played a central role in the latter’s identity as an artists’ house. The 2011 exhibition presents 54 artists from around the world. The geographic spread is particularly large this year – an ongoing trend, and one that reflects our era of global communication.

The Spring Exhibition is organised by the Charlottenborg Fonden in association with the Kunsthal, and is selected by a jury consisting of artists and other arts professionals from Scandinavia and beyond. The jury for 2011 consists of the artist and curator Kirstine Roepstorff (DK, chair), the artists Thora Dolven Balke (NO) and Johanna Billing (SE), and the curators René Block (DE) and Leevi Haapala (FI).
