Big Bambú at The Art Playground, Ordrupgaard, 2018

Art is engaging, it is something that physically invites you in – yes, even something you can climb on! At least at Ordrupgaard it is. On the museum’s Art Playground, which is supported by Nordea-fonden, children and adults can explore a range of artworks that are not only compelling to the eye, but also challenge the senses. In 2018, two new artworks will be inaugurated on the Art Playground: Doug and Mike Starn’s monumental bamboo maze Geometry of Innocence from their Big Bambú series, and Terunobu Fujimori’s new interpretation of the traditional Japanese tea house Tea Tree House.

Leiter combined photography and painting all his life, and continued painting daily until his death in November 2013 at age 89.

An installation of some 3,000 poles lashed together, This Thing Called Life rises 30 feet from the floor of Cullinan Hall, cresting onto the balcony of Upper Brown Pavilion.

Photographisme Klein, Ifert, Zamecznik at the Centre Pompidou, Paris

8 November 2017 - 29 January 2018

The dialogue between photography and the graphic arts begun in the first two decades of the 20th century would prove especially fecund in the two-and-a-half decades following the end of the Second World War (1945–69). This exhibition looks at the post-war interaction of the two disciplines through some hundred photographs and other pieces drawn from the holdings of the Centre Pompidou and from public and private collections abroad.
