10.20 Velkomst
En kort introduktion til symposiet v/ Therese Bülow og Jytte Høy
10.30 -11.00 Crafting Speculations
Talk by Animali Domestici v/ Alicia Lazzaroni and Antonio Bernacchi, Aarhus School of Architecture
Animali Domestici will share some of their recent projects that engage, at various levels, with crafting and material experimentation. They will expand on the relationship between real and virtual material experimentation and the potential value of different types of simulation, questioning the potential for communication and provocation of the boundary between reality and fiction/unreality.
Sprog: Engelsk
11.00-11.15 Q&A
11.30-12.15 Sansning af lyd
Lydkunstnerne Felia Gram-Hanssen og Alexander Holm startede deres samarbejde i 2016 i forbindelse med albumudgivelsen Folded Earth/Double Exposure, som bygger på elektronisk bearbejdede field recordings. Kunstnerduoen arbejder desuden med musikkompositioner og live performances, der kombinerer dokumentation og virtualitet. Live, arbejder de med metoder fra spilmekanismer, koreografi og film-lyddesign. Til Symposiet vil duoen tage os på en fællesrejse ind i lydenes univers.
12.30-13.15 Foodscape frokost
Madkunstner Tine Galatius tryller sensoriske, skulpturelle og spiselige landskaber frem med inspiration fra symposiets emner og billedhuggerens univers. Frokosten bliver tilberedt og serveret udendørs ved levende ild og gløder i 51Cth’s autentiske baggård. Det bliver en sanselig, æstetisk og smagfuld madoplevelse.
13.30 -14.00 Vands fjerde fase
Samtale mellem kunstner Karl Troels Sandegård og kurator Jacob Lillemose med udgangspunkt i Sandegårds skulpturelle eksperimenter med vand i dets såkaldte "fjerde fase", hvor det ikke er flydende, frosset eller damp, men plasma eller gelé om man vil.
14.00-14.15 Q & A
14.30 -15.00 Du er ikke alene – om mikroorganismer, kunst og kultur
Foredrag med lektor og kurator Adam Bencard, Medicinsk Museion
Hvad betyder det, hvis vi skal til at betragte os selv som små økosystemer, eller som sammenslutninger af mange forskellige arter der arbejder sammen? Dette foredrag tager udgangspunkt i en række kunstnere, der på forskellige måder arbejder med mikroorganismer i deres kunstneriske praksis.
15.00 - 15.15 Q & A
15.30-16.00 Tyst te
Koldbrygget Sencha og Matcha smagning ved Louise Walter med fokus på brygning, dufte og æstetik. En æstetisk og sanselig oplevelse, der beroliger hjerte og sind.
16.15-16.45 Løsriv din krop fra jorden
Performativ talk med den østrigske kunstner Ralo Mayer.
Hvordan vil du forberede din krop på at leve på andre planeter, for eksempel Mars? I denne talk vil kunstneren og den selverklærede meteorslikker Ralo Mayer guide deltagerne mod en såkaldt Un-Earthingpraksis. Det er en rejse med omdrejningspunkt i farmakologien og ret så fysisk kontakt med stykker af kosmos. Sprog: Engelsk
16.45-17.00 Q&A
17.00 Bus retur til København
Arrangør 51Cth v/ Therese Bülow og Jytte Høy

Bussen holder der et kvarter før - og kører kl. 9.00.
Der vil være en repræsentant fra 51Cth i bussen.
Husk varmt tøj
51Cth holder til i to industrihaller - medbring derfor varmt tøj.

The 51Cth AiR Programme has come to an end
The aim with the 51Cth Residency Programme was to facilitate an exchange between 51Cth and the visiting artists to continue in developing a continuous critical, constructive and practice based dialogue within contemporary art.
The residency was first and foremost created to serve as an intensive period for experimenting and realising work while in parallel with this carry on a critical reflection about this in an active studio community.
51Cth thanks all the visiting artists for generously sharing their artistic process and practice while staying with us.
51Cth also extends a special thanks to Det Obelske Familiefond for kindly supporting the 51Cth AiR Programme from 2019 to 2022.

Artist Talks at Collega
with Unu Sohn and Magda Buczek:
In Collaboration with 51Cth
20 October 4.30-6pm
Join us for artist talks in October!
In collaboration with artist residency 51Cth Roskilde Collega will host artist talks with current resident Unu Sohn at 51Cth and Magda Buczek currently part of Collegas Surplus exhibition, co-curated with blaxTARLINES Kumasi.
Unu Sohn will present her current work at 51Cth taking the opportunity of her residency to explore materials such as wax molds, bronze and aluminum. Sohn makes non-representational and abstract sculptures. Her body of work reflects associations with selfhood and home: intimacy, safety, protection, boundaries, comfort. Her sculptures are homes she make for herself and welcome others into.
Magda Buczek will present her work OBJECTS CONTINUE TO EXIST WHEN OUT OF OUR HANDS (2022) part of Collega's current exhibition. The work deals with object permanence from developmental psychology: Things continue to exist even when not perceived by the one who looks. The textile is composed of waste pieces collected in garbage dumps, households and from a hospice put in the context of the sustainability and longevity of everyday objects.
The talks are in English and will be moderated by Lotte Løvholm from Collega.

51Cth Artist Talk with resident artist Judith Geerts and Julie Falk on July 31st at Sharp Projects
31.07.2022
Sharp Projects and 51Cth present an artist talk between Judith Geerts and Julie Falk this upcoming Sunday, July 31st at 5:30 pm. As part of 51Cth's public programs, the artist talk with 51Cth's resident Judith Geerts will be moderated by gallerist Ilethia Sharp. 51Cth is an artist association and studio with an international residency program that focuses on sculpture and contemporary art. Geerts, who is based in Brussels, Belgium, will be in conversation with Sharp Projects exhibiting artist Julie Falk. Sharp Projects invites Falk to be in conversation with Geerts because of the overlaps in their artistic practices. When both artists create sculptural installations their use of material and objects communicate a visual language that references architecture, space, and external forces.
This artist talk is supported by Det Obelske Familiefond.

Judith Geerts (b. 1989) is a Dutch artist based in Brussels (BE). She graduated with an MFA with honors from LUCA, Brussels (2022) and completed her BFA at Gerrit Rietveld Academie, Amsterdam (2015) with a degree in sculpture at the Cooper Union, New York (2014). Her artistic practice is based on combining sculpture and writing through references to architectural systems and devices found in public spaces. By replicating, altering, and diverting the design of everyday objects, she produces structures that subvert and reflect upon their
function. She reacts to regulations of architectural authority and examines new ways to activate her work in relation to space and viewership. Her works have been shown at several exhibitions including: BHQF (NY, USA), Vincent van Gogh Huis (Zundert, NL) and Cc Strombeek (Brussels, BE). In Brussels she also co-founded the project space, 8-Track. She has been supported by Master Mind
Scholarship and awarded with grants including: Prins Bernard Cultuurfonds, Stichting Niemeijer Fonds, Hendrik Muller Fonds.
Julie Falk (b. 1991) is a Danish artist, based in Copenhagen (DK). She graduated with an MFA from Malmö Art Academy in 2017 and has since been awarded working grants from The Danish Arts Foundation in both 2018, 2019 and 2021. She works in an intersection between sculpture and concept, where elements from our everyday merge with materials from a context of sculptural production. Through a physical and formal language, she concretizes an aesthetic placed between ad hoc and permanence, where the work’s errand is not easily attached to words, but emerges in the spaces they inhabit. Her works have also been showcased at venues such as Kunsthal Charlottenborg (Copenhagen, DK), KØS Museum of Art in Public Spaces (Køge, DK) and Galleri Susanne Ottesen (Copenhagen, DK) and Sydhavn Station (Copenhagen, DK). She has participated in residencies in Joshua Tree, Athens, Greece and Mexico City. In 2022 she joined as a board member of Charlottenborg Foundation.
51Cth is an artist-run association dedicated to keeping the sculptural and contemporary art field thriving and evolving. 51Cth is located in a large old industrial complex with common workspaces and private studios. 51Cth consists of 14 independent artists and a professional bronze caster foundry (Broncestøberiet Peter Jensen ApS). 51Cth aims to become a facilitator for progressive work in a sculptural setting, where one has access to the required facilities as well as the professional expertise needed for using them. This takes place in a forum that supports and encourages professional artists to exchange their experience and knowledge with each other in a focused working environment as well as through group critiques, artist talks and similar activities. It is 51Cth’s objective to strengthen and further artistic cooperation both within the local area and internationally. The aim with this residency programme is to facilitate an exchange between 51Cth and the visiting artist to continue in developing a continuous critical, constructive and practice based dialogue within contemporary art.
Sharp Projects is an art gallery and curatorial project space in Copenhagen, Denmark founded by African-American independent curator Ilethia Sharp. As an independent art gallery with a focus on sculpture and installation, Sharp Projects invites internationally-based artists and curators alike to exhibit diversified concepts; with overlapping artistic practices that work through materiality and objecthood. Sharp’s interest in transnational parallels in contemporary art aesthetics and narratives indicate the focus on including artists based internationally; who would otherwise not be plurally conceptualized. Founded by a non-native, the gallery is an inevitable response to exclusionary tactics. Extended curatorial projects aim to navigate historical and experimental notions found in exhibition-making by prompting interdisciplinary collaborations of appropriated sculpture and objects.

Double artist talk session
22.11.2021.
We’re happy to invite you to a double artist talk session at our workshop in Trekroner.

The second talk is with Swedish artist Julia Bondesson, who currently has a solo show at Moderna Museet in Malmö. Both conversations will be moderated by curator and editor Lotte Løvholm. Language spoken will be english.
Day: Monday the 22nd of November
Time: 11 - 15
Adress: Industrivej 51c, 4000 Roskilde ( 5 min walk from Trekroner station)
Program:
11.00 Talk between Vanessa Brown and Lotte Løvholm in Vanessa’s studio
12.30 Coffee break
13.00 Talk between Julia Bondesson and Lotte Løvholm
Everyone is welcomed, please send us an email at 51cth@51cth.dk if you will come the latest on Friday the 19th of November. Hope to see you!
Vanessa Brown works in sculpture and installation, primarily using steel. She is interested in challenging steel’s associations with industry and monument, by focusing on its subtler qualities such as its versatility and slightness. Her work explores ideas around craft, constructs of gender and labour, gestures of comfort, ideas of escape, and liminal spaces such as holes and dreams.
Julia Bondesson combines aesthetics with psychology in her works. Gently, they take possession of the room, like entities seemingly at rest. Bondesson explores the symbiosis between body and soul. Her inspirations include Chinese philosophy and embodied cognition, where development is furthered through active cooperation between the senses and the physical body. With performative works, the artist takes an animistic approach, blurring the boundary between object and subject. Bondesson refers to the performative action and her collaboration with the sculptures as a dance that gives rise to an intimate and emotional relationship between them. The sculptures become ambivalent characters – both objects and living beings – vessels travelling between the static and active states. And maybe the permanence of the sculptures also reminds beholders of their own transience.
Text in relation to Julia Bondesson’s exhibition Cradle My Bones, currently on view at Moderna Museet Malmö
Lotte Løvholm is an independent curator and editor based in Copenhagen. She holds a BA in Theatre Research, an MA in Critical Theory and Cultural Studies and is a postgraduate of Konstfack’s CuratorLab. She is interested in collaborations and co-curtating in her practice as an independent curator, where she edits art books, writes articles, curates exhibitions, performance programs and seminars at the intersection of aesthetics and ethics.

Bobler - en kunstrute gennem byen
28.05 - 08.08.2021.
Inspireret af boblen som en midlertidig afgrænset verden, hvor gængse sociale normer opløses og redefineres, har Museet for Samtidskunst, i samarbejde med Roskilde Festival, fyldt byen med bobler af kunst. Fra en roterende hæk ved havnen i nord, til grusskulpturer på Musicon i syd, har 14 kunstnere fra atelierfællesskabet 51Cth i Trekroner skabt helt nye kunstværker til byen. Hvert værk er en boble i sig selv, en kunstnerisk praksis du kan lade dig føre ind i og blive opslugt af - så længe det varer.
Bobler er samtidig startskuddet for Museet for Samtidskunst – Uden Mure; en ny form for museum, der rykker ud af de fysiske rammer og helt tæt på borgerne. Fremover vil Museet for Samtidskunst kunne opleves fx på et plejehjem, i en haveforening, på Roskilde Festival, digitalt eller som nu: gennem hele byen.
Første spadestik til Museet for Samtidskunst – Uden Mure er Bobler, der viser, hvordan museet arbejder lokalt med udgangspunkt i mange lokale samarbejder og fællesskaber for at fejre kunsten og kulturlivet i Roskilde. Senere følger både digitale, nationale og internationale indsatser, som finder sted sideløbende med lokalt forankrede projekter.

Bubbles - an art route through the city
28.05 - 08.08.2021.
Inspired by the idea of the bubble as a temporarily delimited world where the usual social norms dissolve and are redefined, the Museum of Contemporary Art has filled the city with bubbles of art. From a rotating hedge by the harbour to the North to gravel sculptures at Musicon to the South, fourteen artists from the studio collective 51Cth in Trekroner have created all-new artworks for the city. Each work is a bubble in itself, an artistic practice you can immerse yourself in – as long as it lasts.

Artist talk by Mikkel Holm Torp
18th of november, 17.30 – 19.00.
The doors will open 17.00.
Mikkel Holm Torp works with sculpture, ceramics and installations. His works are developed from knowledge in stone masonry and investigations of mineral materials. He explores how artforms correspond with geology, landscape and archaeology. His latest works questions how stones are valuable elements, not only as minerals, but also as metaphors for navigating in historical landscapes, cultural memory and iconology.
51Cth is a newly formed artist run association dedicated to keeping the sculptural and contemporary art field thriving and evolving. 51Cth is located in a large old industrial complex with common workspaces and private studios.
The talk is held in danish, and due to corona has limited seats.
Please write to 51cth@51cth.dk to request a seat.
The recommendations and guidelines of the health authorities will be followed at the event.

Store donationer til nyt 750 m2 kraftcenter for samtidskunst i Trekroner
Det nye billedhuggerfællesskab 51Cth er d.10. December blevet bevilget 1.101.250,00 kr. over en treårig periode af Det Obelske Familiefond til at etablere et kraftcenter for samtidskunst med atelierer og veludrustede værkstedsfaciliteter, som skal danne rammerne for symposier og et internationalt residency-program. Dette initiativ skal videreudvikle det skulpturelle felt og være med til at holde det danske kunstmiljø levende og eksperimenterende.
51Cth er d.12. December blevet bevilget 250.000,00 kr. fra den nyoprettede pulje Øernes Kunstfond. Med støtten fra Øernes Kunstfond styrkes 51Cths forankring i kunstmiljøet omkring Roskilde kommune. Fællesskabet er en nyskabende forening, der har et særligt fokus på at fremme det tværfaglige samarbejde for kunst og håndværk i kraft af samarbejdet med Broncestøberiet Peter Jensen. Dette samarbejde gavner netop begge parter, da de - fra hvert deres felt - præsenteres for nye formsprog, materialer og krævende teknikker, som de sammen kan gøre sig en indgående erfaring omkring.
Foreningen har taget initiativ til en række af tiltag, heriblandt et årligt symposium og et internationalt residency-ophold. Opholdet vil give den besøgende kunstner adgang til værkstedsfaciliteter samt atelier og midler til udførelse af skulpturelle projekter.
Der udsendes et Open Call i Januar 2019.
I det nye år byder 51Cth ind til deres første symposium, som hører under deres treårige tema “Skulpturens rum - Past Future Present”. Temaet forener to konkrete linjer i den kunstneriske proces; det materielle og det teoretiske stof, og vil generere gæsteforelæsninger og workshops, som på hver deres måde udfordrer den skulpturelle praksis i samtiden.
I en tid hvor individualisme og omstruktureringer udfordrer den enkeltes ansvar for at klare sig, glæder vi os over at kunne realisere et sted, der bygger på et engagement i - og en forpligtigelse overfor et fællesskab. Dette fællesskab er samtidig dannet for at støtte den enkelte kunstners praksis med adgang til plads, faciliteter og højt specialiseret viden, som ellers ville være svært at skaffe adgang til på egen hånd. 51Cth er økonomisk bæredygtig, og i alle fremtidige tiltag, er der taget højde for at dette fortsat gør sig gældende.
Foreningen er dermed selvfinansierende i forhold til sin ordinære drift, hvilket betyder at vi kan forblive en uafhængig og permanent aktør på kunstscenen.
De 13 kunstnere på 51Cth er alle uddannede fra kunstakademier i Norden.
