Maria Eichhorn
(Re)visit
06 Feb – 07 Mar 2026
‘(Re)visit’ enacts in its entirety Maria Eichhorn’s 1995 exhibition at Galleri Susanne Ottesen, repeating her precise staging of three works by central figures of the Fluxus movement: Chair Events, 1969, by George Brecht; 33 1/3, 1969, by John Cage; and Flux Ping-Pong, 1969, by George Maciunas.
Eichhorn’s exhibition poses fundamental questions about artistic authorship, audience participation, and the gallery as an active framework through which art is made and experienced. By recreating works from the René Block Collection, Eichhorn also addresses questions of public display and censorship, raised following the collection’s inaugural presentation at Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen (1992).
‘(Re)visit’ follows on from ‘Manuals’ by Fatima Moallim (2025), the first in an ongoing programme of exhibitions at Galleri Susanne Ottesen reflecting on the gallery’s role amid profound shifts in the way that art is circulated, mediated, and displayed. This new iteration of Eichhorn’s show underscores the relevance of the socio-political concerns that motivated Fluxus, whilst highlighting the specific conditions of exhibition-making in 2026.
Revisiting her conceptual methodology, three contemporary artists activate the exhibition. Employing some of the score- or performance- based strategies associated with Fluxus, their interventions anchor the show alongside artistic practices active within the city today.
The programme will be accompanied by a day of short talks by artists and industry figures, which collectively asks, “What do galleries mean to you?”. The Speakers’ Corner will take place on Saturday 21 February, with details to be revealed in the coming weeks.
