Opening: Slow Down Group Exhibition

Observation, silence, restraint, humility, and hesitancy are often cast as weaknesses in an action-oriented society—seen as shortcomings rather than strengths. In the group exhibition Slow Down, we offer an architectural defense of these unappreciated dispositions, tracing the new rhythms, frictions, and imaginaries of the great, dizzying deceleration that lies ahead.

Come along for the opening of the exhibition, made in collaboration with Form/Design Center in Malmö, get a first look, and enjoy a cold Biennial Beer made in collaboration with To Øl.

Having carefully curated a show out of several hundred international proposals, we tune into planetary systems and, reconsidering urban rituals, reimagine infrastructural alternatives: an architecture of signal-jammers forms silent sanctuaries, a mobile pavilion performs rainwater harvesting as a public event, and a deep dive into Køge Bugt uncovers the slow violence of marine sand extraction.

The exhibitors in at Halmtorvet 27 are: Kristiane Fenger and Panuela Aasted (Stadia), CENTRALA, David A.Garcia, E. B Itso, Pablo Castillo Luna, Jana Pressler, Tonda Budszus, Studio Tideland + Emma Rishøj Holm, Dark Matter Lab, Lauge Floris and Debbie Chen.

DA:

Observation, stilhed, tilbageholdenhed, ydmyghed og tøven bliver ofte betragtet som svagheder i et handlingsorienteret samfund – set som mangler frem for styrker. I gruppeudstillingen Slow Down tilbyder vi et arkitektonisk forsvar for disse undervurderede dispositioner og følger de nye rytmer, friktioner og forestillinger i den store, svimlende deceleration, der ligger foran os.

Kom med til åbningen af udstillingen, skabt i samarbejde med Form/Design Center i Malmö, få et første kig, og nyd en kold Biennial Beer lavet i samarbejde med To Øl.

Efter nøje at have kurateret en udstilling ud af flere hundrede internationale forslag, tuner vi ind på planetariske systemer og genovervejer urbane ritualer for at genopfinde infrastrukturelle alternativer: en arkitektur af signalforstyrrere danner stille fristeder, en mobil pavillon udfører regnvandsopsamling som en offentlig begivenhed, og et dybt dyk ned i Køge Bugt afslører den langsomme vold ved maritim sandudvinding.

Udstillerne på Halmtorvet 27 er: Kristiane Fenger og Panuela Aasted (Stadia), CENTRALA, David A. Garcia, E. B Itso, Pablo Castillo Luna, Jana Pressler, Tonda Budszus, Studio Tideland + Emma Rishøj Holm, Dark Matter Lab, Lauge Floris og Debbie Chen.
