The coolest month in more ways than one

By Ben Hamilton

W

hen Marcellus uttered his immortal line about the state of Denmark in Act One, Scene Four of Hamlet, he wasn’t strolling through Frederiksberg Have on a summer’s day, hand-in-hand with his lover, contemplating an afternoon of leafy bliss and sinful is.

No, he said it overlooking the battlements of a fog-engulfed castle, freezing and fed-up, on a day not that much different from today. And to be fair, nothing’s changed in the 400 years since the play was written. February continues to be a month in which winter overstays its welcome and the aptly-named SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) takes over.

Short of going on holiday there is no remedy, well until now that is, because an idea that started as a whisper in empty hotel rooms, half-filled smoky jazz venues and backstage fashion parties has metamorphosed into seven extremely good reasons for staying put and enjoying your February in Copenhagen.

Welcome to the first official year of Copenhagen Wondercool, a festival organised by Wonderful Copenhagen that following a successful pilot last year is returning to redefine your least favourite month, and transform this city of ours into a beehive of activity, as hundreds of venues put on events attended by thousands of revellers.

Sales and Advertising: Jeanne Thames, Mark Millen, Lyndsay Jensen +45 3336 3300

Wondercool Copenhagen is not just one festival, it’s seven: the winter editions of the Copenhagen Art Festival, Copenhagen Cooking and the Copenhagen Jazz Festival, the Copenhagen Fashion Festival, the FROST Festival, and events and activities organised by the Danish Design Centre and Danish Architecture Centre.

If you would like to contact us or leave a comment: info@cphpost.dk

Over the next four weeks we will be trying to keep up with the multitudes of events, and in each edition focusing on at least one of the themes. To kick things off, we’re starting with fashion, design, art and architecture. Week two will include a special section on jazz, week three cooking, and week four FROST, a festival that will take us rocking into next month.

This supplement is published by The Copenhagen Post in co-operation with Wondercool, please refer to our disclaimer on page 2 of the newspaper.

It promises to be a fabulous February, and organisers are already drawing up plans to continue this in the years to come – which is great news for those of us in dire need of a lift at this time of year. If this won’t banish the winter blues, nothing will.

Wondercool Copenhagen - Jan 27-Feb 2

Victor Hugo, a famous 19th century French writer and visual artist, once said: “Winter is on my head, but eternal spring is in my heart.” This scholarly-metaphoric quote is soon going to be a thing of reality! Moving on from blue January, romantic February is going to bring spring into our lives with a host of winter themes in Copenhagen under the Wondercool Copenhagen festival banner, three of which are architecture, art and design.

Wondercool Copenhagen promises to marry the abstract visions of art with the concrete canvas of design and architecture, to exhibit the vibrant and colourful part of the city defying the gloomy-wet-cold weather.

For Wondercool Copenhagen, the Copenhagen Art Festival, the Danish Design Centre and the Danish Architecture Centre are presenting a wide array of mind-boggling events that no art lover can resist.

Art ] The Copenhagen Art Festival’s main focus is contemporary art. This February event, which takes place at five different art centres and public locations across the city, is a taster of the main festival, scheduled this year from August 24-September 2. Many of the Danish and international contributing artists will take inspiration from the theme of ‘community’ to create new works, while there are several events planned, including performances at Højbro Square, debates, and the showing of a specially-commissioned art video on the theme of community.

A passion for fashion Copenhagen Fashion Festival - Various locations in Copenhagen; throughout February; www.copenhagenfashionfestival.com

openhagen Fashion Week is the fashion industry’s event for designers, stylists, hairdresser, and so on, that takes place each August and February. But since 2008 it has also been possible for the public to take part in the fashionable festivities through the Copenhagen Fashion Festival, which once again this year is taking place in co-operation with Wonderful Copenhagen and Copenhagen’s city centre.

Copenhagen Fashion Week started as an industry platform for selling and buying. Later on it became an umbrella for fairs, shows, showrooms, and all the communication around it, but it remained a closed industry event. The Copenhagen Fashion Festival is everything that happens in Copenhagen in relation to Fashion Week, and it’s open to everybody. It’s made up of different events, exhibitions and parties, and includes lots of special offers and contests.

The festival is simply supplying a demand that has been out there for some time. “Many people called in to ask if they could participate in anything during Fashion Week,” recalls Julie Christine Kühne, the project co-ordinator for Copenhagen Fashion Festival. “So it’s based on a specific interest. We think that when you create a big event you should include the entire city, so you 24/7 get the buzz of Fashion Week everywhere you go.”

Photography duo Peter & Ingela Klemntz Farago have created a coffee table book and touring exhibition called ‘Northern Women in Chanel’ in which Scandinavian and Baltic supermodels wear prêt-à-porter and couture Chanel pieces dating back to the ‘20s.

The exhibition ‘Northern Women in Chanel’ takes place at the crossroads between French design and northern beauty. You get the chance to see some of Scandinavia’s and the Baltic countries’ most sought-after supermodels dressed in Chanel pieces posing in outdoor scenery.

The couple behind the book and exhibition, Peter Farago and Ingela Klemetz Farago, are not only husband and wife, but also a visionary photography duo. They took the pictures during 2010 and 2011, and in collaboration with Chanel they created a 384-page portfolio featuring 45 Northern supermodels – including Helena Christensen and Freja Beha Erichsen - only wearing the fashionable Chanel fabrics.

“It was a fashion journey,” Ingela told Vogue. Together with her husband she shot close to 300 different looks - a number only made possible due to unlimited access to Chanel’s archives. The picture

process took around a year and a half, and most of the 45 editorials are shot in Sweden and across the Nordic sites.

The project started after the couple had shot some fashion ads for Chanel. They pitched the idea to the design house’s Baltic division and were offered full access to clothing pieces from both the label’s current collections and archives: prêt-à-porter as well as couture.

Coco Chanel is one of the previous century’s most influential fashion designers. She is known for going against tradition - for instance, she was one of the first to dress women in trousers. Her creations of casual clothes for women have today become classics in most fashionistas’ eyes. With the project, the Faragas have managed to combine the classic Chanel designs and photography in a new way.

“Thanks to Farago’s sense of the pictorial, these photographs not only celebrate the fascinating designs they record, but also produce sensational reinventions, demonstrating how fashion, photography and art can come together,” noted a the press release about the exhibition.

Every little detail in the book has been carefully thought out, so every creation and surrounding was picked specifically for each model.

One of the models is Denmark’s Freja Beha Erichsen, who decorates the cover of the book, and who, among others, has been a muse to the creative director, and contributor to the preface of the book, Karl Lagerfeld.

“The models have been carefully chosen to represent an aesthetic flair for fashion, but also a desire to convey a sense of humanity,” the organisers of the event said.

All models, stylists and others working on the book did the work for free, and all the profit from sales of the book are donated to the organisation Save The Children and the building of girls’ schools in Baltic countries.

The touring exhibition started at Fotografiska in Stockholm in June, and has now finally arrived in Copenhagen. Consisting of more than the 50 large prints, the Danish exhibition has been provided with a series of black and white portraits of the participating models.

These photos will also be published in an exclusive limited edition booklet (just 100 copies), which have been signed by the photographers.
