Elmgreen & Dragset: 2020

The exhibition, entitled 2020 and consisting of a large selection of Elmgreen & Dragset’s sculptures, both new and familiar, is staged into a fictional environment, which generates new sets of narratives and enables visitors to make their own stories and associations. Running through the presentation of works is an underlying concern for the loss of togetherness in a culture that emphasises the individual. As an exhibition, 2020 may make you, the viewer, feel completely lost. Have we finally reached a juncture where we will have to take stock of the way we lead our lives?

Michael Elmgreen (b. 1961 in Copenhagen, Denmark) & Ingar Dragset (b. 1969 in Trondheim, Norway) have been working together since 1995. In their art, they address social concerns and reveal power structures embedded in our culture in a subversive, yet playful manner.
