FOYERcontemporary

FOYERcontemporary operates at the intersection of art, architecture and everyday life. By working deliberately outside the traditional white cube, they invite contemporary art into existing sites such as Park Bio, Lake House and Café SandØ on Christianshavn. Here, the flow of people, sound, light and social presence become integral components of each artistic project. Art unfolds within lived space — accessible, unexpected and embedded in daily routines.

FOYERcontemporary curate with an open, exploratory approach and collaborate with both emerging and established artists from Denmark and abroad. Through site-specific exhibitions, performances, sound art, screenings and artist talks, we create spaces for reflection, curiosity and shared experiences. Their exhibitions are often small-scale and long-term, allowing works to evolve alongside their surroundings and audiences.

Sound art plays a key role in our programme through the Hear-away series. These projects explore voice, resonance and spatial storytelling as artistic practice, most notably in the lower level of Lake House. Listening becomes a physical and spatial experience that subtly transforms how visitors relate to the site.

Performance, screenings and talks take place in Park Bio’s historic cinema hall, where the architecture itself participates in the encounter. Here, sound, image and bodies activate the space, blurring distinctions between stage, artwork and audience.

Residency formats and urban pop-up interventions are equally central to FOYERcontemporary. At Café SandØ, artists work openly with sketches, ideas and multiples developed in real time, inviting the public into artistic processes as they unfold. Temporary interventions in the city — on façades, staircases, foyers and cafés — bring art directly into everyday life.

FOYERcontemporary has collaborated with artists including Filip Vest, Dagmar Moldavanu, Madeleine Andersson, Siff Hedegård, Luka Cvetkovic, Davide Hjort di Fabio, Kunstrum Fyn and Hesselholdt & Mejlvang.

FOYERcontemporary continues to explore how contemporary art can exist in motion — embedded in architecture, in public space, and among people, right where life unfolds.
