Rasmus Røhling is a Danish artist who works in video and sculpture. Røhling’s recent work dealt with the representation of male eccentricity and male crisis throughout art history and how this iconification relates to current political issues.
For this lunch he will talk briefly about some aspects of the work he did for his latest exhibition Grommets to segue into more unresolved questions/fascinations concerning:
Visual communication strategies in Danish church frescoes vs. so called “anxiety reducing animations” currently at use in the Danish healthcare sector.Phantom limbs, trompe l'œil, and some of the connotations associated with the term “truncation”.
Also joining us for this lunch and casual conversation is Ronah Sadan who is currently doing a PhD at Aarhus University about the visual documentation of medieval wall paintings in nineteenth-century Denmark, and curator at Museum of Contemporary Art, Magnus Kaslov.
