What Is Copenhagen in Such a Hurry About?

On Culture Night, you are invited into the world of the museum’s newly opened exhibition “WHATS THE RUSH?”, where photographer Christopher Egeberg Flip explores, through his photographs, the traces left across the city by the anonymous painter SPYO.

Look forward to an evening of exploring Copenhagen through photography, music, sound and creative activities. Experience Mike Sheridan performing live the soundtrack he created for the exhibition, and hear Flip talk about the work behind it. In the basement the exhibition space Freespace invites you to a sticker-making and drawing workshop. Outside, Laserfabrikken will create a unique atmosphere with light and fog.
