Welcome to the Danish Art Workshops
The Danish Art Workshops (SVFK) is an institution under the Danish Ministry of Culture, whose purpose it is to provide working facilities for particularly demanding art works.
At the SVFK it is possible for artists to do work in large formats, which their own studios or equipment cannot facilitate. Artists, designers, craftspeople, and restorers can work here on projects in art and design at the highest level.

ADMIN
22 Nov. – 22 Dec. 2024
Christine Overvad Hansen’s exhibition Admin is based on Greek mythology and the myth of the three “moirs” – the term for the goddesses of fate: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos. The three goddesses spin, measure, and cut the thread of people’s lives and indirectly unfold a narrative about the position of power that lies in being witnesses to each other’s lives.

Projects
We encourage you to search information about specific artistic techniques and materials in current and former projects within the fields of visual arts and crafts, design, and preservation. In this database we feature the artistic working process rather than the outcome in order to focus on the services we provide.
In the Past We Made History is an investigation that takes the form of an archive and focuses on strategies of remembering and bearing witness. The archive weaves fragments of memory of 89 locations that functioned as Refugee Asylum Centers and Emergency Aid Centers until 2018. It holds documentation of the architecture – buildings, rooms, and textures that shaped the frame around newly arrived people’s daily lives.
