Bagenkop Kunsthal
Bagenkop Kunsthal is a small unique exhibition space with a wide selection of different artists and art forms.
Contemporary art in southern Langeland
Art in unique surroundings
Bagenkop Kunsthal is located in the former rescue station at the harbour in Bagenkop. The building is steeped in history, and with its location just a few steps from the sea and the characteristic fishermen's cottages, it is difficult to find a more atmospheric setting for modern art.
Plenty of art all summer long
Every summer, you can experience approximately 14-16 changing exhibitions in the art hall. Works by various artists are displayed here – both established names and new talents. This means that there is always something new to experience, no matter when you visit during the summer. The exhibitions cover a wide range of genres – from painting and graphic art to sculpture, installation and mixed media.
Time for contemplation
The art gallery is run with the aim of creating a space for reflection and contemplation. Here, there is room to take your time, be inspired and experience art that stimulates thought. Many of the exhibited works revolve around themes such as nature, human life and society – often with a local connection.
Part of Langeland's art scene
Bagenkop Kunsthal is an important part of Langeland's vibrant art scene, which also includes the Langeland art towers – Denmark's longest art exhibition in old transformer towers. Langeland has a proud tradition of art and craftsmanship, and the art gallery helps to bring contemporary art closer to both residents and holidaymakers.
