‘Det må ikke blive til noget’ is a quote from the makers of the zine IKLIPSX which means ‘It must not amount to anything’. The magazine is an important Danish punk fanzine published in seven issues from August 1978 to 1980. It was Denmark’s first fanzine from the punk scene and stands as an important historical. With a base in Copenhagen and an editorial staff consisting of key figures from the Danish punk scene, including members of Sods (later Sort Sol), No Knox and Camilla Høiby. IKLIPSX played a decisive role in documenting and communicating the punk culture in Denmark. It was important to the group that the zine didn’t materialize into something big.The zine was Denmark's first fanzine from the punk scene and stands as an important historical document that not only depicts a musical genre, but also the rise and development of an entire subculture. The exhibition gives you the opportunity to delve into this exciting era of Danish music history and experience the energy and creativity that drove the young punks forward.
IKLIPSX has definetly made a mark and today zines has evolved into comics, art, photography, self healing and political issues. The exhibition features a variety of zines from 2010-2024 and highlights how the community of making zines has grown without “amounting to anything”.
