Art in a Day 2022

24 HOURS OF PERFORMANCE ART 

On 24 June from 00:01 until 23:59, Copenhagen’s six contemporary art institutions open their doors and fill the city with a buzzing programme of free art experiences created by a string of Danish and international performance artists.

Henrik Vibskov’s evocative parade will march through the streets, dancers in zorbs make Monster Chetwynd’s giant eye cry, Arvida Byström invites you along for a date with a sex doll, a canal touring boat takes you on a water-borne performance trip, and the event culminates with an art fest at Refshaleøen.

Art in a Day is an annual public event featuring performance art across the spectrum in the art institutions themselves and at venues across the city – from courtyards and shop fronts to bridges, church towers, and on the water.

  • It is free of charge and everyone is welcome – admission to the art institutions is also free.
  • Follow the route from art institution to art institution or let yourself be surprised by the performances popping up across the city during the 24-hour period.

Names released: Henrik Vibskov l Monster Chetwynd l Arvida Byström l Tosh Basco (fka boychild) l See updates during the spring when the full programme will be announced l 

GREATER THAN ANYTHING WE COULD HAVE DONE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS 

Art in a Day is created by Copenhagen’s six contemporary art institutions, which have joined forces to create this annual celebration of performance art. Art in a Day moves art into public space, giving everyone a chance to experience star performance artists and new talents during a 24-hour period packed with diverse, extraordinary, and interactive art experiences. 

Art in a Day will take place for the first time on 24 June 2022: save the date!

We look forward to seeing you!The programme is curated by Creator Projects in close collaboration with the contemporary art institution
