Reiulf Ramstad Architects have the privilege to be inaugurating a new exhibition series focusing on architecture and design created in the tension field between local and global.
‘New Nordic’, ‘Nordic Noir’, Nordic design and Nordic cuisine. Over the past decade our Nordic self-awareness has increased. However, while there has been a major focus on our Nordic roots, some people think that the expression ‘Nordic’ has become diluted and cliché-ridden. Together, in the spirit of Jørn Utzon, let us take a step back and look at things in a broader perspective.
In a new exhibition series the Utzon Center explores what it means to be a Nordic architect in a globalised era. The title of the series is In the World of an Architect.
The exhibitions will examine the inspiration Nordic architects draw from the world, and the role their vision plays in their work. The exhibition series, In the World of an Architect, sets out to clarify the concept of ‘Nordic’ and to appreciate the importance of the architects’ standpoint as a natural premise of their work.
The exhbition is sponsored by Realdania.
