ART AS A CHALLENGE

CONTEMPORARY ART, MODERN ART AND TRADITIONAL ART – OUR DESTINATION OFFER ALL ASPECTS OF ART. YOU WILL FIND SOME OF IT IMPRESSIVE, SOME OF IT CHALLENGING, AND SOME OF IT MAY BE INCOMPREHENSIBLE.

It is your good luck, however, that staff and professional art experts are ready to show you round, to explain, to connect art with the present day and, above all, to discuss the works on view.

Art is much more that paintings on the wall and sculptures on the floor. You will see that when you visit places like the Art Hall Kongegaarden and Sorø Art Museum, where changing exhibitions will challenge and expand visitors’ minds.

Some works are well on in years, others are quite new and may look into a big future. The exhibtion venues have one thing in common: They endeavour to give you an experience that you had not expected.

BETWEEN POTTERS’ WHEELS AND BRUSHES – MEET THE LOCAL ARTISTS IN THE WORKSHOP

The long stretches of coastline, beautiful sunsets and changing landscapes are clearly reflected in the works of the many local artisans. There are a variety of galleries and artists here, each with their unique expression.

The local artists are pleased to open the doors to their workshops to allow visitors to follow the process while a lump of clay, a piece of driftwood or an empty canvas becomes a new work. Whether you visit one of the minor artists in the City of Art, Skælskør, in Det Lille

Glashus or MØLLER i Mejeriet outside Slagelse, you will experience art close up.

IF YOU WANT TO EXPERIENCE THE VERY SPECIAL ATMOSPHERE, THE YEAR OFFERS A LOT OF ART EVENTS, E.G. THE CERAMICS FESTIVAL IN SKÆLSKØR OR ART IN CHURCHES.
