    Fryd Frydendahl & Jacob Birch

    Listen back to a conversation between Fryd Frydendahl and Jacob Birch, recorded live as part of the Talks Programme at CHART Book & Print Fair 2025. For the seventh episode of the third season of the CHART Talks podcast, we are happy to share a recording of a conversation between the artist and photographer Fryd Frydendahl and Jacob Birch, graphic designer, publisher and founder of Spine Studio and Marrow Press. Together, they reflect on the collaborative process they used to produce the books They didn't want to pierce the sun, Nephews and Salad Days, focusing on how books can emerge through dialogue rather than from a fixed body of material. From creating images and layouts on the go during a shared journey in Texas to treating the book as an evolving dialogue over many years, they discuss collaboration as a method for thinking, making, and navigating change and uncertainty. Fryd Frydendahl and Jacob Birch reflect on their shared projects as spaces for experimentation, where personal relationships and chance encounters influence design decisions and shape the final work. They explore how book design can intersect with lived experience and the complex relationship between commercial work and artistic practice. *This talk is in Danish

    Esben Weile Kjær & Mariam Elnozahy

    As part of the CHART 2025 Talks Programme, we were delighted to present a conversation between Danish artist Esben Weile Kjær and Mariam Elnozahy, curator, researcher, writer, and Artistic Director at Konsthall C, Stockholm. They explored Weile Kjær’s artistic practice, which thrives on contrasts—between materials, spaces, and the expectations we bring to them. From crafting bronze sculptures that mimic plastic (and vice versa) to investigating the social dynamics of clubbing, they discussed his use of materials as a form of performativity to examine different phenomena. Weile Kjær reflected on his work with materials "in drag,” challenging notions of truth and intention while creating atmospheric spaces by combining music with other materials in performative ways. They also explored how he disrupts architectural norms and uses text, image, music, and sculpture as tools in his expansive, cross-disciplinary practice.

    Emily Gernild & Marie Laurberg

    As part of the Talks Programme at CHART 2025, we were delighted to present a conversation between Danish artist Emily Gernild and Marie Laurberg, Artistic Director and CEO at Copenhagen Contemporary in Denmark and Founder of the support program for artists, CC Commissions, and the Beckett-Prize. Drawing on Gernild’s reflections, the conversation traces her path to becoming a painter: from early detours through theology to discovering a practice rooted in everyday objects, colour, and form. She discusses challenging the perception of painting, especially floral motifs, as something simple or feminine, and speaks to her belief in the deep exchange between material and spirit. Laurberg and Gernild explore the shift from canvas to linen, the quiet rituals of the studio, and the symbolic presence of lemons throughout her work, while also questioning whether today’s visual culture has become too banal in the imagery we consume.

    The Impact of Art in the Public Space

    At CHART 2025, we were pleased to present a panel discussion exploring the role of art in public spaces, focusing on the creation and commissioning process of public art. The panel consists of Danish artist Pernille With Madsen, Michael Thouber, Director of the New Carlsberg Foundation and former Director of Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Diana Velasco, Art Consultant at Kunst på Arbejde and served for five years as Program Lead for the Art in Metro initiative at Metroselskabet (supported by Statens Kunstfond, Det Obelske Familiefond and Villum Fonden), moderated by Milena Høgsberg, former Director and Chief Curator of Wanås Konst. The conversation examined the practicalities of applying for public art funding, the balance between aesthetics and functionality, and the complex logistics of working with contractors, sub-contractors, and multiple stakeholders. The panellists reflected on the power of public commissions—how they can embody state representation, shape collective identity, and evolve in meaning over time. Through examples such as The Little Mermaid, Poul Gernes’ decoration of Ordrup Gymnasium, Bruce Nauman’s Square Depression, and Svend Wiig Hansen’s Oceania, they discussed how involving users in the creative process fosters a sense of ownership assuring preservation from future generations.  Click here to access the presentation discussed during the conversation.

    Frederik Næblerød & Marie Nipper

    At CHART 2025, we were delighted to present a conversation between Danish artist Frederik Næblerød and Marie Nipper, Director of ARKEN Museum of Modern Art, Ishøj, Denmark. At the time, Næblerød’s works were the focus of a major solo exhibition at the museum, during which his studio was temporarily relocated to the institution. Together they discuss Næblerød's major solo exhibition at the museum 'All Walks of Life' and explore his work across diverse media including painting, drawing, ceramics and bronze sculpture. Tracing his practice from a background in graffiti, through his time at art school up to his most recent body of work, the talk considers how Næblerød uses an experimental approach to create vibrant energetic compositions that still feel true to life. Næblerød also reflected on his intuitive artistic approach, drawing not from theory or art history but from everyday encounters, like the faces and colours from a simple trip to the supermarket.

    Anders Herwald Ruhwald & Stephanie Cristello

    In this episode Anders Herwald Ruhwald and Stephanie Cristello discuss the interplay between form and content in Ruhwald's latest book project Mineral Skin, which features documentation of Ruhwald's practice alongside accompanying text by Cristello. Together the pair reflect on their collaboration, and the way in which Mineral Skin conforms to and breaks with the conventions of traditional book making. The conversation then broadens into a wider discussion of the role of language in Ruhwald's work and the different ways in which art, materiality and form can intersect in contemporary practice. Anders Herwald Ruhwald is a Danish-American artist based between Chicago and Detroit. His work is held in the permanent collections of The Art Institute of Chicago, The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, The Victoria & Albert Museum and Musee des Arts decoratifs, among others.
