Arrival består af en online og interaktiv procesudstilling med Oskar Koliander, der giver indblik i processen og arbejdet frem mod udstillingen Broom Buzzems i juli 2021 gennem et interaktivt computerspilslignende univers, hvor beskueren inviteres på en virtuel vandring i en verden af skitser, inspirationskilder og research materiale. Derudover kan man tage del i performanceprojektet The Eco-Tourist af Scott William Raby, der faciliterer en undersøgelse af den lokale sammenhæng mellem økonomi og naturressourcer med udgangspunkt i Skagens turisme som kulturhistorisk midtpunkt. Slutteligt inviterer Inga Gerner Nielsen indenfor i performanceprojektet only here to adore, hvor natur, landskaber og haver danner genstand for en romantisering og undersøgelse af vores forhold til naturen og vores omgivelser.

Arrival giver et indblik i platformens praksis og fremtidige virke, hvor lokale og stedsspecifikke landskaber igen danner genstand for kunstens kritiske blik, ligesom de gjorde det for kunstnerkolonien i slutningen af 1800-tallet og for de modernistiske landskabsmalere Engelund og Hofmeister i midten af det 20. århundrede.

Arrival afholdes i Skagen.

Arrival consists of an online and interactive process exhibition by Oskar Koliander that provides insights into his work towards the exhibition Broom Buzzems through an interactive computer game like universe, where the spectator is invited to take a virtual walk in a universe of sketches, research material, and inspirational objects. In addition to the online exhibition you can take part in the performance project The Eco-Tourist by Scott William Raby who facilitates an investigation of the connection between economy and natural resources locally. The project is based on Skagen’s status as a tourism hot spot and as a site of cultural and historical significance. Furthermore Inga Gerner Nielsen invites you inside her artistic universe in the performance project only here to adore in which nature, landscapes, and gardens form the subjects of an examination of our romanticized relation to nature and our surroundings. 

Arrival provides a sneak-peak into the platform's future work, where local and site specific landscapes once again are under the lens of the arts as it provided inspiration for the artist colony in Skagen with P. S. Krøyer and Anna Ancher in the end of the 19th century and for the landscape painters Engelund and Hofmeister in the mid 20th century.

Arrival is held in Skagen.
