Thick & Thin
8 Jun – 11 Aug 2024
Thick & Thin is a survey of the work by Danish artist Simon Dybbroe Møller from the past 20 years. The exhibition is the most comprehensive overview of Simon Dybbroe Møller’s practice to date and includes several new works as well as earlier projects that have been restaged and reconfigured for this exhibition.
In his practice, the artist investigates and complicates common binaries such as motif and depiction, copy and original; he explores the power that images hold today. In Thick & Thin, things and bodies are heavy – they age and break, while the photographic images that engulf them are thin and light and seemingly endure forever. Simon Dybbroe Møller tests what sculpture is or can be, in a world that is dictated by the photographic; a world where our economy and attention has shifted from the object to the image.
The exhibition title hints at the artist’s preoccupation with the relationship between sculpture (Thick) and imagery (Thin) as well as the twists and turns of two decades of artistic practice, through ‘thick and thin’. In many of the works selected for this exhibition the artist uses autobiographical elements to examine notions of identity and representation, and to question tropes and mechanisms of depiction.
Rather than settling into one medium or style, Simon Dybbroe Møller continuously probes new territories, moving between film, photography, found objects, sculpture, writing, curating and teaching. As a prominent exponent of an art that emphasises connection, juxtaposition and relationality, his works engage with the relationship between the weighty materiality of sculpture, and the mediation and representation of images.
Simon Dybbroe Møller was born in Aarhus in 1976 and has been Professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School of Sculpture in Copenhagen since 2019.
Thick & Thin has been developed in close collaboration between the artist and curator Krist Gruijthuijsen, Director of KW Institute of Contemporary Art in Berlin.
The exhibition is supported by The Augustinus Foundation, The Beckett Foundation, The New Carlsberg Foundation, The Danish Arts Foundation, The Obel Family Foundation and The William Demant Foundation. Thanks to Francesca Minini, Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, Fastighetaktiebolaget Folkets Hus in Stockholm, Sammlung Ivo Moser and Österreichische Galerie Belvedere.
