NewSsshhelterplan is a site specific group exhibition that inaugurates the new non-profit exhibition space New Shelter Plan. The advisory board has curated the opening exhibition that intends to invite audiences to explore the exhibition space and perhaps question the conventions of a traditional gallery setting. The exhibition is conceived as a generous and experimental presentation of the exhibition space, where the focus is on space as well as the dialogue between the space and the individual works.
The artist names are intentionally kept secret until the end of the exhibition. With this we try to provoke the audience to look even closer at the actual work in stead of focusing on what they already know.
The exhibition is, as a whole, conceived as an artistic approach to the space and will involve the floors, walls and doors, underscoring that New Shelter Plan is intended as an experimental and innovative space for contemporary art. The 185 m2 exhibition space is not the usual white cube as we know it from the gallery world, but an old storage room at Carlberg with columns and an elevator shaft at the center of the room.
