Gå ikke glip af festen!
På Udstillingsstedet Sydhavn Station har Anne Langgaard opbygget en scene for en fest, men når man træder ind i udstillingsrummet opdager man hurtigt, at det er en fest, der er ved at dø ud.
Man mødes af et værk bestående af en enorm skulptur af 666 kilo saltstænger - den billige festmad, ingen rigtig gider, men alle spiser uden videre omtanke. Saltstængerne udgør en glidende bunke ned gennem udstillingsrummet og rundt om ligger værker henslængt - bl.a en ordinær plastik stol støbt i bronze, 1001 scorereplikker skrevet på A4 papir og krøllet sammen, et par ananas-party-briller, et bundt billige roser fra Netto støbt i bronze, en bag-in-box i keramik, og luftforladte balloner i bronze. Det er skulpturelle bearbejdninger af det hverdagslige, og hvor værkerne kontekstualiserer et setting for en fest, der er forladt, og hvor luften bogstaveligt talt er gået ud af ballonen. En fest fra den ende af spektret, hvor der handles ivrigt ind i discountbutikker. Her er lige dele hverdag og guddommelighed - de ordinære og banale objekter er transformeret til skulpturelle undersøgelser, der understreger og påpeger poesien og magien i hverdagen.
I festen ligger både en potentiel eufori og en potentiel skuffelse. Noget, som kan blive fantastisk eller kan gå galt. Langgaard inviterer til en fest, der allerede er slut før man kom, og det er “resterne” fra festen, der er i centrum og som ophøjes til noget universelt gennem de humoristiske og skulpturelle sonderinger af hverdagen. Der ligger også et implicit mørke i de trætte spor der er tilbage, noget er slut, og måske slog man ikke helt til mens man kunne, men sad bare og spiste saltstænger. Langgaards værker kan derfor ses som et forsøg på at holde fast i øjeblikket som passerer, for at eviggøre det. Dette stammer fra et dybtfølt ønske om at forlænge nuet for at udsætte det uudsættelige; tabet af evigheden.
I plakatfrisen i forhallen mødes man af billedkunstner Martin Creeds lyrik til udvalgte sange. Creeds fantastiske univers understreger tonen til udstillingen: Han er en hverdagens poet, og i hans lyrik blandes det banale med det eksistentielle, “I WAS THINKING/AND THEN I WASN’T THINKING”. Hans værker er ofte legende og enkle, men samtidig dybt filosofiske og konceptuelle. Udstillingen i gallerirummet med saltstænger, støbninger og modelleringer af hverdagen går ind og taler med Creeds lyrik og humoren i det banale hverdagslige. Langgaard har generøst fået tilladelse til at vise lyrikken, og på plakaterne er en QR-kode, som leder hen til sangen på youtube. Derved bliver Creeds sange levendegjort og kan følge den besøgende på vej videre i hverdagen.
Anne Langgaard har studeret BA Fine Art (Hons) ved Chelsea College of Art and Design i London (2011-13) og bor og arbejder i København. Hun er engageret i at få kunst ud i andre kontekster end den traditionelle “hvide cube” og har arbejdet med dette gennem kuratorduoen Walther&Langgaard (2016-2019) og nu på Udstillingsstedet Sydhavn Station. Som billedkunstner er hun optaget af hverdagens poetiske og magiske potentiale, og hun har løbende udstillinger i Danmark og udlandet. Hendes praksis er en undersøgende flirt med dagligdagen og kredser om hverdagsmaterialers æstetiske og skulpturelle kvaliteter. Hun er optaget af de helt ordinære objekter, vi med selvfølgelighed omgives af, og som vi normalt ikke skænker en tanke eller et blik.
Martin Creed er en Britisk Turner Prisvindende kunstner, som er kendt for sin konceptuelle og minimalistiske tilgang til kunst. Martin Creed inkorporerer hverdagens genstande i sine værker, og han har arbejdet i en række medier, herunder maleri, tegning, film og musik. Creeds musikalske stil beskrives ofte som minimalistisk og eksperimenterende. Ud over sit kunstneriske og musikalske arbejde er Creed også kendt for sin åbenhjertige og humoristiske personlighed, som ofte er et udtryk for hans arbejde. Gennem sin karriere har Creed haft adskillige soloudstillinger i prestigefyldte institutioner rundt om i verden, herunder Tate Modern i London, MOMA i New York og Venedig Biennalen.
Udstillingen er støttet af Statens Kunstfond, Københavns Kommunes Råd for Visuel Kunst, 15. Juni Fonden og Netto ved Sydhavn Station.

Don't Miss the Party!
At Udstillingsstedet Sydhavn Station, Anne Langgaard has created a scenery for a party, but upon entering the exhibition space, you quickly realize that it's a party that's fading away.
You are greeted by a work consisting of a massive sculpture of 666 kilos of salt sticks - the cheap party snack no one really wants, but everyone mindlessly consumes. The salt sticks form a sliding pile throughout the exhibition space, with scattered works around - including an ordinary plastic chair cast in bronze, 1001 pickup lines written on A4 paper and crumpled, a pair of pineapple party glasses, a bunch of cheap roses from Netto cast in bronze, a bag-in-box in ceramics, and deflated balloons in bronze. These are sculptural transformations of the everyday, where the works contextualize a setting for a party that has been abandoned, the air has literally gone out of the balloon. It's a party from the end of the spectrum where people eagerly shop at discount stores. Here, there is an equal mix of the mundane and the divine - the ordinary and banal objects are transformed into sculptural explorations that emphasize and highlight the poetry and magic of everyday life.
Within the party lies both potential euphoria and potential disappointment. Something that can be fantastic or can go wrong. Langgaard invites you to a party that's already over before you arrive, and it's the "remnants" of the party that take center stage and are elevated to something universal through humorous and sculptural investigations of the everyday. There is also an implicit darkness in the tired traces that are left behind, something has ended, and maybe you didn't quite seize the moment but just sat there eating salt sticks. Langgaard's works can thus be seen as an attempt to hold on to the passing moment to eternalize it. This stems from a deep desire to prolong the present to postpone the inevitable: the loss of eternity.
In the poster frise in the foyer, you encounter the lyrics of selected songs by visual artist Martin Creed. Creed's fantastic universe sets the tone for the exhibition: he is a poet of the everyday, and in his lyrics, the mundane blends with the existential, "I WAS THINKING/AND THEN I WASN'T THINKING." His works are often playful and simple, yet deeply philosophical and conceptual. The exhibition in the gallery space with salt sticks, castings, and modeling of everyday life engages in a conversation with Creed's lyrics and the humor in the mundane. Langgaard has generously obtained permission to display the lyrics, and on the posters, there is a QR code that leads to the song on YouTube. This brings Creed's songs to life and can accompany the visitor on their journey through everyday life.
Anne Langgaard studied BA Fine Art (Hons) at Chelsea College of Art and Design in London (2011-13) and lives and works in Copenhagen. She is committed to bringing art into contexts other than the traditional "white cube" and has worked on this through the curatorial duo Walther&Langgaard (2016-2019) and now at the Exhibition Venue Sydhavn Station. As an artist, she is fascinated by the poetic and magical potential of everyday life, and she has ongoing exhibitions in Denmark and abroad. Her practice is an exploratory flirtation with everyday life and revolves around the aesthetic and sculptural qualities of everyday materials. She is interested in the entirely ordinary objects we take for granted and usually don't give a second thought.
Martin Creed is a British Turner Prize-winning artist known for his conceptual and minimalist approach to art. Martin Creed incorporates everyday objects into his works and has worked in various media, including painting, drawing, film, and music. Creed's musical style is often described as minimalist and experimental. Besides his artistic and musical work, Creed is also known for his candid and humorous personality, which often reflects in his work. Throughout his career, Creed has had numerous solo exhibitions in prestigious institutions around the world, including Tate Modern in London, MoMA in New York, and the Venice Biennale.
The exhibition is supported by the Danish Arts Foundation, the Visual Arts Council of Copenhagen Municipality, the 15th of June Foundation, and Netto at Sydhavn Station.
