HELLO COPENHAGEN

@ Din Nye Ven, Sankt Peder Stræde 34, Copenhagen K Show map

8:00-11:00 (early) // Free

It’s time for yet another Likemind – your monthly coffee-talk-fix. It’s actually kind of a networking event, so grab the chance to go out and have a chat. Maybe you will be introduced to new exiting projects or your new best friend – who knows. Or maybe just sit back and enjoy a cup of coffee and be inspired.

Bring your friends and tell it to a stranger. I’ll be happy to meet you, even though I’m usually not very talkative in the mornings. So don’t be afraid if I look a bit sour :-)

The event is organized by our likeminded friends at Kadaver.

@ V1 Gallery, Flæsketorvet 69-71, Copenhagen K
17:00 // Free Entrance

Peter Funch- Danish photographer living in NYC has a special approach to humanity- his art is hyper real, humorous and one could even say ‘ironic’. To understand his point of view one can attend an opening of his solo exhibition at V1 Gallery on the 7th of May at 17:00, or better come to see him in person.

On the 13th of May, Peter Funch will be giving a talk as well as signing his book. It will be a chance to ask questions, confront the art with the author and understand what is so special about it.

First breakfast of a new season. Urban Breakfast is about having a breakfast somewhere in urban space and meeting nice people. Just show up and bring something with you to share.

Urban Breakfast takes care of tables, cutlery etc. You need to bring either 1) bread 2) something to put on the bread or 3) something to drink. Roll a dice to find out what to bring 1+2 = bread, 3+4=topping, 5+6=drink.

Urban Breakfast is inspired by the concept of Permanent Breakfast, which is an open event about meeting new people and exploring the opportunities of using public space.

Come by Ignite Denmark, if you are curious and like to be entertained, provoked or inspired.

This is the second edition. Last time, there weren’t any English speaking presenters, but this time, there will be for sure.

More than 15 presenters will each have 5 minutes to present their passions – it’s highly energized. For instance, you can hear about working with social media or about how narratives can lead to changes. Grab a beer and talk with the speakers in the break or after the event. Maybe it will ignite new interesting projects and ventures.

See you there :-)

Once again the guys behind SweetTalk Cph invite you to join for some inspirational sweettalk. These events are not only known for the informal value but also the social aspect of bringing people together working in creative industries.

This night is your chance to take part of a one-night-only screening of the documentary ‘Died Young, Stayed Pretty’. The Iranian-born Canadian director Eileen Yaghoobian has made a unique documentary on underground indie rock posters and she will be flown in to introduce the movie herself.

Yaghoobian has traveled through the underground poster culture in North America. The outcome is a documentary about the people who get their hands dirty making beautiful graphics and posters for some of our favourite indie bands. It tells the story about how and why they do it.

The screening will be in English with no subtitles. Afterwards you’re welcome to hang out for a beer and some sweettalk.

@ Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Kongens Nytorv 1, Copenhagen K
12:00-24:00 both days //  Free entrance

60 artists of different nationalities meet 22 Danish art colleagues for a public international art exhibition. Go for non-stop art in action: performance, music, theatre, poetry, installations and much more.

Transitstation is on tour through European countries and transports artists and their work from city to city. At each stop, people and artists get on board, while others leave, thereby making the journey transitional, fluid and to some extent indeterminate.

The event is focusing on the question - Where is the art?

The weekend will be followed by a EduAction Day, Monday 19 April, with interviews, artist talks, workshops and artist food. 16:00-19:00

Everything will be spiced up with a bit of wine and snacks by SJ (Soup Jockey) Christian Hovesen. Dj ObernKarbi will take care of exotica and decadence.
