From 18 September, Vibskov takes over Designmuseum Danmark in central Copenhagen with his largest exhibition to date, taking visitors on an eventful journey through the designer\u2019s universe.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When Henrik Vibskov creates his fashion collections and large-scale installations, he draws inspiration from cultural, social and political issues \u2013 but also from the most familiar aspects of everyday life: how we sleep, wash in the morning or do the dishes. In Vibskov\u2019s hands, the familiar is transformed in surprising ways and re-emerges in the designer\u2019s distinctive, playful universe, which always invites new perspectives and experiences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From fashion highlights to large-scale installations<\/strong><br \/>\nWith <em>Henrik Vibskov: The Exhibition<\/em>, visitors can look forward to an immersive exhibition featuring a wealth of different works and visual worlds \u2013 from 44 display cases containing objects, prototypes and works from Vibskov\u2019s studio and highlights from his fashion collections over the years to large-scale art installations that visitors can move through. The major exhibition at Designmuseum Danmark offers a unique insight into how Vibskov\u2019s approach to play, improvisation and collaboration creates space for an endless flow of creativity, and how his various projects intersect across time and themes. The exhibition is a journey into a branching, wildly growing universe \u2013 mysterious, humorous, surprising and moving.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A colourful preview<br \/>\n<\/strong>The first work from the exhibition has already taken up residence in the museum\u2019s green garden. Henrik Vibskov created the installation <em>The Umbrico Spiral<\/em> especially for the museum\u2019s programme during the 3daysofdesign festival in June. Standing almost nine metres tall, the installation features red and white double spirals that turn in the wind. It now rises in the middle of the museum garden as a colourful, playful monument heralding the upcoming exhibition. Inside the museum, too, visitors can get a taste of the major exhibition in the month leading up to the opening, with a selection of works on display.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Largest museum exhibition<br \/>\n<\/strong>Henrik Vibskov has exhibited at numerous museums around the world, but the exhibition at Designmuseum Danmark is his largest solo exhibition to date. <em>Henrik Vibskov: The Exhibition<\/em> presents a selection of highlights from 25 years of the designer\u2019s projects, alongside a wide range of objects, models and other material that has never previously been exhibited.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Henrik Vibskov<br \/>\n<\/strong>Henrik Vibskov works at the intersection of art and design.
