WORK IT OUT: New Art Exhibition Reflects on Modern Working Life

Can contemporary art help make us reflect on modern working life and perhaps even contribute to a rethinking of working life in the future? Can we solve the challenges and problems that seem to be part of modern working life? Might art and museums offer new perspectives?

Featuring existing and brand-new works by several influential Danish and international contemporary artists, the Work it Out exhibition addresses modern working life. At Kunsten Museum of Modern Art in Aalborg, Denmark, the just opened exhibition holds 2 custom carpets designed by renowned artists Mille Kalsmose and John Kørner and 1 nature imitating Moss carpet as a focal part of the installation by Kenneth Balfelt Team // Johan August.

True to our values, new expressions, constellations and spaces regularly emerge from uniting the carpet material and impressive architecture with established and upcoming artists from all over the world. From the very beginning of Ege Carpets more than 80 years ago and in the spirit of our founder Mads Eg Damgaard, the tension field between art and the commercial world has materialised in carpet installations expressing so much more than meets the eye.
