Vernissage: Vägmärken - 10 Years with Art Inside Out
hallands konstmuseum, Halmstad
Vernissage for the exhibition Vägmärken - 10 Years with Art Inside Out at Hallands Konstmuseum.
The exhibition spans a decade of artistic work in Halland and presents works by twenty-six artists working in installation, video, painting, performance, sound and text. The works explore questions of belonging and otherness, what a home is and can be, art's role in urban transformation, fragile ecological relationships, memory's traces in the landscape, and the more-than-human.
The artists, invited by Art Inside Out, have undertaken residencies throughout Halland, working in open and exploratory processes to create new works through encounters with residents, places, histories and experiences - in both urban and rural settings. Art Inside Out was founded ten years ago when Region Halland and the region's six municipalities joined forces to strengthen Halland as a place for artistic production. Since then, over eighty national and international contemporary artists and cultural practitioners have visited the region.
Participating artists: Muhammad Ali, Einat Amir, Crystal Z Campbell, Saadia Hussain, Ingela Ihrman, Signe Johannessen, Cora Jongsma, Marit Kapla, Lekkontoret, Eric Magassa, MASU, Katja Petterson, Matilda Ruta, Pia Rönicke & Johan Tirén, Sigga Björg Sigurðardóttir & Katja Tukiainen, Christine Ödlund, Anja Örn & Tomas Örn. Performance programme on 21.11 featuring Jan Carleklev, Lerin/Hystad, Alexander Rynéus and Klara Ström.
