exhibition · 2026-06-08

The Nordic Pavilion at the Venice Biennale presents the group exhibition 'How Many Angels Can Dance on the Head of a Pin?', featuring artists Klara Kristalova, Benjamin Orlow, and Tori Wrånes. The exhibition is held at the Nordic Pavilion in Venice, Italy. The title references a medieval philosophical question, suggesting a thematic exploration of limits, space, and the ethereal. Kristalova is known for her ceramic sculptures and drawings that often depict hybrid creatures and melancholic narratives. Orlow's practice spans sculpture, installation, and performance, frequently engaging with architectural and social structures. Wrånes is recognized for her performative and video works that challenge conventional notions of identity and reality. The exhibition brings together these three distinct voices, offering a multifaceted dialogue on contemporary art. The Nordic Pavilion is a collaborative platform for Norway, Sweden, and Finland, and this presentation underscores the region's ongoing contribution to the international art scene. The exhibition is part of the 60th International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale, curated by Adriano Pedrosa, running from April 20 to November 24, 2024.
