Latest Events in Humlebaek(October Updated)

Bodies tell tales. Objects remember. Memories leave traces. In Kaari Upson's distinctive world, beauty meets horror, sensitivity resonates with despair. The first retrospective museum exhibition featuring Upson after her untimely death shows the strength and range of an artist already well on her way to becoming a modern classic. The exhibition is generously supported by The Obel Family Foundation and is producered by Louisiana in collaboration with Kunsthalle Mannheim and Masi Lugano. At her untimely death from cancer in 2021, aged 51, Kaari Upson was widely regarded as one of the most significant and versatile American artists of her generation with a practice spanning sculpture, drawing, performance, film and painting. Though her career was cut short, she has left behind a rich, intense and strongly personal body of work that revolves around identity, body, relationships, emotions, illness and loss.
