In Dreams of a Lifetime, the poet Gordon Walmsley casts his gaze back over the span of his life, writing with a maturity of feeling that allows nature, childhood memories and observations of the contemporary world to stream freely through the poems. He blends the roomy and convivial rhythms of the American South with the lapidary quietude he encountered on first coming to Denmark, and in that space of thought and light which he came to appreciate, his mood rests in the moment and presence of being. Dreams of a Lifetime is attuned both to the cycles of nature and of human consciousness, and as such is a prescient voice in our current time.

Idyllia began as a thought experiment. What would happen if idyllic scenarios that people imagine in their minds were turned into realities in the world? How might these personal idylls become dystopian when their lack of social engagement becomes apparent?Over the course of the writing, various stories went off in different directions, departing wildly from the author’s initial ideas and control, popping up unexpectedly in exhibitions of contemporary art, coming into being and existing only in digital form...Eventually the author realised he had come to write a sort of sci-fi without really having had the intention, and along the way unearthed the previously unknown genre of Idyllic Factualism.The stories in Idyllia ask difficult questions about human imagination and will, the nature of the near future, and suggest beginnings of answers that are unexpected and surprising.

Bogen Æter er lavet i forbindelse med udstillingen af samme navn, som blev vist påKunstCentret Silkeborg Bad 13. januar – 2. juni 2024. Projektet tog begrebet ’æter’ op sommetafor for det, der ikke kan måles og vejes. Ved at udfordre deres materialers fysiskebegrænsninger, blev kunstnernes værker også til broer mellem domæner. De forskellige fagligheder der har arbejdet sammen om projektet, har udviklet ny viden og tilgange til ideen om æteren gennem research, der har fokuseret ikke kun på koncepter men også materialerne, som den altid foranderlige æter interagerer med.The book Aether was produced in connection with the exhibition of the same name, shown at Silkeborg Bad Art Centre from 13 January to 2 June 2024. The project took up the concept of ‘the ether’ as a metaphor for that which cannot be measured and weighed. By challenging the physical restraints of their materials, the artists’ works also became bridges between domains. The different specialists who have worked together on the project have developed new knowledge and approaches to the idea of the ether, through research focused not only on concepts but also the materials, with which the ever-changing ether interacts.Koncept og kuratering / Concept and curationVinni Frederiksen og/and Ane Fabricius ChristiansenVærker af / Works byHanne FriisAnett BiliczkiGrethe WittrockKasper KjeldgaardBarbara SkovmandAne Fabricius ChristiansenInge Lise WestmanLise Seier PetersenVinni FrederiksenErna SkúladottírPekka PaikkariPipaluk LakeEssays af / byHelge Krah, Neils Bohr InstituteChristopher Sand-Iversen, SixtyEight Art InstituteTone Roald, University of CopenhagenSoftcover, 216 sider, fuld farve.
