Lower East
The photo exhibition “Peace & Togetherness” draws attention to the fact that we also in Denmark live with neighbors, colleagues and friends who are deeply and personally affected by the current conflicts. At the same time, it emphasizes the global need to be able to live together and in peace, regardless of one’s nationality, ethnicity, religion or gender.
The six women with roots in Sudan, Ukraine, Russia, Israel and Palestine whom we meet in the exhibition all have war and conflict close to their lives due to their background in the conflict-affected areas.
Photographer Stine Heilmann and KVINFO are behind the photo exhibition.
Lower East has designed posters, postcards and giant photo prints for the exhibition, which premiered on the International Women’s Day 2024, where it was on display in Vega, Copenhagen throughout KVINFO’s 8 March event.

Dennis Hopper ‘The Lost Album’ © hopper & lowereast.dk
At Martin Gropius Bau, Berlin there is right now a very cool and very inspiring photo exhibition Dennis Hopper – The Lost Album. More than 400 photos taken by Hopper in the 1960’s. Originally exhibited in the US in 1969-70, and now for the first time in Europe. The photos all taken from Hopper was 25 until he turned 31. After that he never touched a camera again… And went on directing “easy Rider“.
“Dennis Hopper is interested in everything. Wherever he happens to be, whether in Los Angeles, New York, London, Mexico or Peru, he takes in his surroundings with empathy, enthusiasm and intense curiosity.“ (from the museums website).
Go there if you have the chance, a rare experience, and what a journey in time. The exhibition runs until December 19, 2012.
