Henrik Olesen

The exhibition "Hey Panopticon! Hey Asymmetry!" features new works by Henrik Olesen, created in response to the architecture of Schinkel Pavillon as a panoptic platform. Henrik Olesen's work has long addressed subcultural visual codes, deploying them to demarcate the ubiquitous gaze of the public. Taking Schinkel Pavillon's 360-degree view as a starting point, the works explore the blurring boundaries between the interior and exterior in a society that increasingly requires people to reveal personal information whilst at the same time sanctioning that which falls outside the norm.
