Recipient of the Danish Arts Foundations three year work scholarship Jeannette Ehlers, feature with the solo exhibition 'The Invisible Empire' at ROHDE CONTEMPORARY in Copenhagen.
When the galleries in downtown Copenhagen open their doors for the big joint opening on Friday 13 August, ROHDE CONTEMPORARY will feature the solo exhibition 'The Invisible Empire’ by one of todays most notable young Danish artists Jeannette Ehlers. Last honoured in the spring of 2010 when she received the Danish Arts Foundations three year work scholarship.
"Jeannette Ehlers most recent works revolve around the Danish slave trade in colonial times. With the upcoming solo exhibition 'The Invisible Empire' at ROHDE CONTEMPORARY, Jeannette Ehlers reflects upon todays slave trade - also known as 'human trafficking'. The artist's own ethnicity to the former Danish colonies in Danish West Indies, only adds extra strength to Jeannette Ehlers works", said gallery Managing Director, Camilla Rohde Madsen.
At the international Video Art Fair LOOP in Barcelona, ROHDE CONTEMPORARY also featured video works by Jeannette Ehlers, titled 'Black Magic at The White House' and 'Three Steps of Story'. Completed sales of works during the art fair to several international art collections, only affirm the very high artistic quality that Jeannette Ehlers represents.
The exhibition opens at ROHDE CONTEMPORARY in St. Kongensgade 110 on Friday 13 August from 5 - 7pm.
Normal gallery opening hours are Tuesday-Friday 12 - 5pm and 12 - 3 pm on Saturdays.
Artist talk event with Jeannette Ehlers is on Saturday 28 August at 1pm. The exhibition runs until 19 September.
