Join Boiler for a glass of wine at the finissage of Torben Ebbesen's exhibition 11 Entries
11 Entries brings together a selection of eleven object-based works by Torben Ebbesen spanning the past two decades. Installed within the intimate basement space of Boiler, the exhibition takes on the character of a cabinet of curiosities. Here, the attention is drawn to a key aspect of Torben Ebbesen’s practice: His ability to draw out the unexpected from what already exists, opening up a space for discovery and curiosity.
Throughout his career, Torben Ebbesen has explored the encounter between human inventiveness and the given world. At a time when the boundaries between the natural and the artificial are increasingly blurred, and when technology and artificial intelligence enable the continuous accumulation, storage, and circulation of information, knowledge, and images, Torbens Ebbesen insists on sustaining—and making visible—the riddle of art. By reworking and recombining familiar elements, he subtly shifts our perspective, allowing the world to appear anew, in ways that remain open and unresolved.
Torben Ebbesen’s works probe the limits of an ordered and systematised world, suggesting that the new does not necessarily lie in inventing something entirely different, but in altering how we see and understand what is already there.
