The exhibition Think of me as a Carol is a continuation of Peter Voss-Knude’s longstanding musical engagement with the Danish defence, and the outcome of his residency at the Grimmuseum.
About
The show takes its title from the lyrics of a song that Voss-Knude wrote with army captain Ekelund about the ambivalent role of the soldier as both arbiter of war and self-proclaimed “choir of peace”.The video of Ekelund’s heart-wrenching studio performance accompanied by Voss-Knude’s immense charcoal drawings is a consideration of their relationship – one between ‘faggot’ and soldier, artist and muse – and its translation into cultural artefacts.
The exhibition is supported by Danish Arts Foundation.
