Galleries

There has never before been so much variety available, featuring provocative video installations rubbing shoulders with established Danish painters and sculptors. The range of experiences available during a stroll down just a single street in Copenhagen or a tour in the countryside is impressively varied.

Bredgade

in the heart of Copenhagen's financial district, is home to Gallery Susanne Højriis, specialising in minimalist and figurative Danish artists. Gallery Christian Dam, Gallery Birch, Gallery Nørby and Gallery Asbæk are platforms for cutting edge Danish artists. The latter also presents two international exhibitions every year.

In contrast to many major European cities, Copenhagen's contemporary art galleries are relatively centralised, making a one-day recce a distinct possibility for the intrepid art lover, with time left to return to savour one or two exhibitions at leisure.
