Thanks for one hell of an exhibition!

Hanging from the ceiling at Arken in Ishøj are knitted sausages and fabric-and-plastic blobs—» like beautiful tongues speaking a repetitive, wordless language,« writes our art critic Mathias Kryger about Kenneth Rasmussen’s exhibition ’For helvede mand (’For Hell’s Sake, Man’).
