CHRISTINA WILSON GALLERY



The gallery is one of the most prominent contemporary art venues in Copenhagen, located in the Islands Brygge area. The client wished to divide the gallery into two separate rooms and functions: storage/show room, and gallery space. New divisions and wall surface treatments were required, as well as creating a new administration area. One of the main elements of the proposal was a movable double bladed door (instead of a “wall and standard door” solution). This 3 meter by 2,4 meter door, ritualizes the event of inviting potential buyers into the show room and art storage area, while offering an extra 9m2 of exhibit space to the gallery if deemed necessary. The playfulness of the door element, allows a free interaction between user and space, as well as offering new possibilities for artists who work with site specific projects.
