Slow – an Evening about Water
Thursday, 23 October at 5-10 pm
Immerse yourself in art, talks, conversations, music and food, when Glyptoteket once again presents Slow and dives into the theme ‘Water’.
Based on the special exhibition with artist Alia Farid (f. 1985), we explore water as a condition of life – as well as a political weapon and a growing area of conflict.
Come and discover how water has shaped our worlds since ancient times, determining how people settle, organize societies and distribute power. Delve with us into Roman aqueducts, Egyptian river gods and how parched date palm plantations are connected to today's climate crisis and geopolitical conflicts. Explore how rivers and oceans not only shape landscapes but also create borders and define who has access to resources – and who does not.
As always you can enjoy a delicious dinner served by former Michelin chef Lasse Askov.
The program will be published soon.

Many know Glyptoteket as a space for contemplation and reflection. This experience is enhanced when, on special evenings, Glyptoteket presents a program that invites you to come close to the art and immerse yourself.
