StressHat
– a hat never goes out of fashion!
by Henriette Hellstern-Kjoeller
October 6 – 30 2012 (can be experienced from the street all day/night) at
NLHspace
Vesterfaelledvej 63
1750 Copenhagen V
Opening: Friday, October 5th 5:20 pm.
The artist Henriette Hellstern-Kjoeller is also carrying a hat, and has for the exhibition in NLH‐Space worked with having everything under one and the same.
Meret Oppenheim created in 1942 – 1945 the illustration “Hat for Three Persons” which is the source of inspiration for the exhibition StressHat. “The Yes-hat” is also a hat, but with poisonous impact and often cadaver and soul does not follow along. Come and experience art works about multitasking, quick snack, uptempo, consequence and have a “yes, yes, yes, yes”.
The theme is bent, caressed and punished in:
– psychedelic abundance of color executed in quick moves; theres no time!
– slumped breast rich queer felt massacre; we peak when we are 21 years!
– obscure clothing item with built-in electronics; for you who follow with the times!
The exhibition is Henriette Hellstern-Kjoeller’s first solo‐show and is created especially for NLH‐Space and the dynamic environment around Vesterfaelledvej, and is to remind everybody day and night about time and movement. Join the opening carrying a hat if you dare?
