WALKERS
Funen Art Academy’s Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen Programme for Art in Public Space is proud to present Walkers – an exhibition featuring public artworks by the programme’s inaugural participants:
Sofie Brag, Davide Hjort Di Fabio, Martha Hviid, Karl Eivind Jørgensen, Thea Amalie Käszner and Dagmar Moldovanu.
All projects are specifically made for and installed at different public spaces in the city of Odense. The works meet the city’s inhabitants amidst their daily comings and goings around the city – affixed to tree trunks along Odense River, overlooking Odense Open-Air Swimming Pool, installed on the window of Ansgar Church, outstretched beneath the Albani Bridge, attached to a bike shed by Stenfisker Quay and wedged into the lawn in front of Ballet School Odense.
