[English below] Fordyb dig i kunst, talks, samtaler, musik og mad, når Glyptoteket igen slår dørene op til Slow og dykker ned i temaet Vand.
Med afsæt i den nyåbnede særudstilling med samtidskunstner Alia Farid undersøger vi vand som livsbetingelse – og som politisk våben og presset ressource.
Kom og bliv klogere på, hvordan vand siden oldtiden har formet vores verdener og bestemt, hvordan mennesker bosætter sig, indretter samfund og fordeler magten. Vi dykker ned i oversvømmelser, skumfødsler og romerske akvædukter – og i hvordan knastørre dadelplantager hænger sammen med nutidens klimakrise og geopolitiske konflikter.
PROGRAM
Velkomst og forfriskninger
- Nyd en gratis velkomstøl fra Carlsberg
- Aftenen igennem kan du købe snacks og aftensmad tilberedt af tidligere Michelinkok Lasse Askov
Musik
- Oplev Kira Skov synge Vinterhaven op med en skræddersyet sæt, der kredser om temaet vand
- Lyt til bølger og dråber, når pianist Louise Pump, studerende ved Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorium, spiller Une barque sur l’océan af Ravel og Raindrop Prelude af Chopin
Samtale og oplæg
- Museumsinspektør Anna Kærsgaard Gregersen fortæller om Alia Farids værker, der kredser om olieindustriens påvirkning af økosystemer og vandets rolle i den geopolitiske magtkamp
- Mød seniorforsker Lars Erslev Andersen (Dansk Institut for Internationale Studier) og journalist Jakob Sheikh (Institut for Menneskerettigheder) i en samtale om Den Arabiske Golfs historie, flodernes betydning og vandressourcer som magtmiddel
- Lyt med, når arkæolog Anna Wirenfeldt Minor fortæller om akvædukternes betydning for sundhed, velstand og magt i Romerriget
Kunst
- Alia Farid forbinder i udstillingen A Sounding of the Earth oldtidsgenstande med global olieindustri og undersøger, hvordan økosystemer og livsformer påvirkes af politiske kræfter. Få en introduktion til udstillingen, før du selv går på opdagelse i den
- Bliv klogere på vandets forvandlingskraft, når vi ser nærmere på Den skumfødte Venus, som blev til i en forening af voldsomhed og skønhed
- I vinteren 1872 steg vandstanden i Seinen. Sisley malede værket ’Oversvømmelsen’, da vandet stod højest. Han malede ikke bare vand, men en katastrofe
- Landet mellem floderne Eufrat og Tigris i det nuværende Irak kaldes ofte for civilisationens vugge. Her opstod landbruget omkring 9.000 år f.v.t. og siden blomstrede forskellige storslåede kulturer. Kom og hør om fyrster og konger, landmænd og handlende samt frugtbarhedsgudinder, vandguder og fabeldyr
Værksted
- Amuletværksted Lav et beskyttende, magisk perlenet, inspireret af Alia Farids værk Knotted Net NME MA4240 i Vinterhaven

__________
SLOW – AN EVENING ABOUT WATER
Immerse yourself in art, talks, conversations, music and food, when Glyptoteket once again presents Slow and dives into the theme ‘Water’.
Based on the new special exhibition with artist Alia Farid, we explore water as a condition of life – and as a political weapon and pressured resource.
Come and discover how water has shaped our worlds since ancient times, determining how people settle, organize societies and distribute power. Delve with us into floods, foam births and Roman aqueducts – and how parched date palm plantations are connected to today's climate crisis and geopolitical conflicts.
PROGRAM
Welcome and refreshments
- Enjoy a free welcome beer from Carlsberg
- Throughout the evening you can buy snacks and dinner prepared by former Michelin chef Lasse Askov
Music
Experience Kira Skov, sing up the Winter Garden with a tailor-made set that revolves around the theme of water
Listen to waves and drops when pianist Louise Pump, a student at the Royal Danish Academy of Music, plays Une barque sur l’océana by Ravel and Raindrop Prelude by Chopin
Conversation and talks
- Curator Anna Kærsgaard Gregersen talks about Alia Farid’s works that revolve around the impact of the oil industry on ecosystems and the role of water in the geopolitical power struggle
- Meet senior researcher Lars Erslev Andersen (Danish Institute for International Studies) and journalist Jakob Sheikh (Institute for Human Rights) in a conversation about the history of the Arabian Gulf, the importance of rivers and water resources as a means of power
- Listen as archaeologist Anna Wirenfeldt Minor talks about the importance of aqueducts for health, prosperity and power in the Roman Empire
Art
- In the exhibition A Sounding of the Earth, Alia Farid connects ancient artifacts with the global oil industry and examines how ecosystems and life forms are shaped by political forces. Get an introduction to the exhibition before you explore it yourself
- Learn about the transformative power of water as we take a closer look at The Birth of Venus, which took place in a union of violence and beauty
- In the winter of 1872, the water level in the Seine rose. Sisley painted the work Flooding at Port-Marly when the water was at its highest. He did not only paint water, but a catastrophe.
- The land between the Euphrates and Tigris rivers in present-day Iraq is often called the cradle of civilization. Agriculture arose here around 9,000 BC and various magnificent cultures flourished thereafter. Hear about princes and kings, farmers and traders, as well as fertility goddesses, water gods and mythical creatures
Workshop
- Amulet Workshop Make a protective, magical bead net, inspired by Alia Farid's work Knotted Net NME MA4240 in the Winter Garden
