Kunsthal Charlottenborg

Since 1883, Kunsthal Charlottenborg has presented contemporary exhibitions in the historical Charlottenborg palace designed just for that purpose after French example. The exhibition space presents an ambitious program with international outlook featuring talents as well as established stars from both Denmark and abroad. Kunsthal Charlottenborg presents uncompromising and agenda setting art still understandable for everyone. The trendsetting exhibition program is supplemented with a large number of activities like artist talks, performances, concerts and film screenings. Kunsthal Charlottenborg has a unique connection with The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Schools of Visual Arts, of which we are a part. Kunsthal Charlottenborg collaborates closely with the Schools of Visual Arts’ department of administration on e.g. talks, lectures, screenings and other events, just as Kunsthal Charlottenborg presents the annual exhibition by the graduate students of the Schools of Visual Arts. Kunsthal Charlottenborg is by the way the only Government-subsidized exhibition hall in Copenhagen. Kunsthal Charlottenborg’s central location between Kongens Nytorv, Nyhavn and Papirøen with easy acces via public transportation, and the connection to the Academy’s Schools of Visual Arts, where both students and established artist are regular visitors, make Kunsthal Charlottenborg the natural meeting place for contemporary art in Copenhagen.
