Open workshop

There will be play, games, colours, experiments, and systems taking up the space of our exhibition halls during the winter holiday when CC stays open every day in the period from 10–16 February. Participation is free of charge on the presentation of a valid ticket and admission is free for everyone under the age of 18.

CC Studio’s first-floor workshop is open every day from 11.00–17.30. Together with our workshop assistants children and adults can work with different materials and methods inspired by Jacob Dahlgren’s exhibition Art is Life. Dahlgren creates art through play, games, and systems made from everyday objects – and you, too, will have an opportunity of trying it out in the workshop. We look forward to seeing you!

About CC Studio

CC Studio is CC's learning initiative on the 1st floor with workshops, exhibitions and rooms for contemplation and relaxation. CC Studio is synonymous with the facilities, activities and learning programmes that Copenhagen Contemporary offers children and young people as well as adults. The idea behind CC Studio is to present contemporary art in innovative ways where learning and reflection on the world happen through a physical and dialogue-based encounter with art. Every year CC invites a recognised international artist to create a site-specific playscape for CC Studio. The exhibition aims to unite art and play in a physical and aesthetic experience. There will be a chance to touch, move about in, examine and use the exhibition, thereby activating body, eye and mind. Read more about CC Studio here.

About Jacob Dahlgren

Jacob Dahlgren (b.1970) lives and works in Stockholm where he was educated at the Royal Institute of Fine Art in 1999. His works are often colourful, involving the audience, and take as their point of departure a playful approach to art and life. His sculptural practice is minimalistic but will often have an interactive or performative element. Learn more about Jacob Dahlgren here.
