Nørrebro Teater in Copenhagen is hosting its first major contemporary art exhibition, "In the Presence of Others," featuring works by Marina Abramović, Laurie Anderson, and Miranda July. The show focuses on the artists' engagement with sound and will be staged throughout the entire theatre building.
The exhibition marks a significant crossover between performing arts and visual art spaces, bringing together three generations of influential female artists known for pushing boundaries in performance, sound, and multimedia. By transforming a theatre into a contemporary art venue, the show challenges traditional exhibition formats and highlights the growing intersection of sound art and visual art in institutional programming.
