GORO TRONSMO

05.09 - 13.10.24

Goro Tronsmo moved in to Billedhoggerforeningen on the 29th of August. She brought a dog, a dancer, half of her furniture, fifteen suitcases and started renovating Villa Furulund. Goro’s exhibition period includes a public program inside the installation with specific opening hours. 
 
This weekend the exhibition will reach its peak, with a four-day durational performance taking place in the entire house and garden. You are invited to drop in and out, stay as long as you like, from five minutes to five hours. The performance activates every corner and every room, with an ensemble that is constantly moving, living and breathing.
 
Turning the logic of an exhibition period inside out, the last weekend becomes the peak of a crescendo.

GORO TRONSMO has spent the last 10 years working on a series of large-scale, living architectural installations. In her work, she transforms and stages the spaces she engages with, to offer a different perspective – on structures within the art scene, on buildings, and on institutions. Her most recent project was an installation for Lyshallen at the National Museum for the opening exhibition “Vi kaller det kunst”.  It depicted an urban structure, complete with apartments, a sauna, a museum, backstreets, and squares. She also works with actors, graphic staging, and film.
