The story behind ART IN CHURCHES Gentofte

By CHARLOTTE TØNDER

For the first time, Gentofte’s churches opened their doors to the arts in a large joint art event. Here, 9 churches showed exciting art by 20 skilled and professional artists on Saturday d. 7th and Sunday d. November 8, 2020. Including both visual arts and sculptures. The exhibition was opened by Mayor Hans Toft and Gentofte’s dean, Peter Birch. A total of 20 professional artists were present throughout the weekend in the church where their work was exhibited. Here, guests experienced art in the magnificent setting that churches represent. There were many visitors and a lot of interest. Behind the project are two Gentofte artists. Charlotte Tønder and Martin POP who have taken the initiative for the big project, and they have met with great goodwill from the local churches. “Art in the Church” is supported by Gentofte Municipality’s culture pool and by Gentofte Deanery.
