Rewriting Histories examines how history can be retold from a contemporary perspective through film and video works, slide installations and photography by internationally renowned Danish as well as international artists. The exhibition focuses on history and the archive – a theme in art – that with recent political events has received renewed attention and relevance. Rewriting Histories – conceptually staged in an intriguing visual language – is curated in collaboration with artists Lasse Lau and Benj Gerdes at Photographic Center, Fotografisk Center, Copenhagen, Denmark.
