Nordlichter
Catalogue of the 2025 exhibition
The curator of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum, Helga Christoffersen, talks to Danish artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen about his artistic practice and his digital installation ‘Boreal Dreams’, which was commissioned by the Fondation Beyeler and premieres alongside the exhibition ‘Northern Lights’. With ‘Boreal Dreams’, the artist explores the impact of the climate crisis on the ecosystem of the boreal zone by creating virtual landscapes based on scientific data collection and gaming technology.
The event is included in the museum price.
The talk will be held in English.
The exhibitions can be viewed prior to the event.
Between 12 and 25 August 2024, we will be installing our next collection display (on view from 24 August) and our large Matisse retrospective (on view from 26 September).
During this time, the museum, the Art Shop and the «Beyeler Restaurant im Park» will remain closed. We look forward to welcoming you again once the installation work has been completed.
