Officinet, Bredgade 66, 1260 Copenhagen K

An exhibition to mark twenty years of CLAYDIES …. the working partnership of the potters Tine Broksø and Karen Kjældgård-Larsen.

A brilliant show with all the humour and the self parody you would expect from CLAYDIES …. where else would you be encouraged to have your photograph taken behind a ceramic string vest or with your head stuck through a large ceramic ring like a horse collar?

But underneath is a very real understanding of ceramic techniques and very real skill - some of these pots are really large and must have been a headache to fire - and there is a clever and broad range of glazes exploited for different strong colours and different effects through textures. You can’t take a gentle dig at your craft unless you have mastered it completely.

This is also, of course, a brilliant dig at the selfie obsession. It’s that old fairground or end-of-the-pier seaside attraction of having your photo taken by a street photographer but with your face stuck through a hole in a picture of a very very large lady wearing a striped bathing costume next to a scrawny little husband so your face replaces hers. Here there is a patterned jumper - in clay - to stand behind or a pottery bobble hat.

With the big bold ceramics set against strong colours, this is where pop art meets pots.

The graduation show for students from the Royal Academy in architecture, conservation, design, graphics and fashion. This is always a major opportunity for the public as well as for people working in the design industries to see the work of the most recent graduates; to see developments and priorities at the academy as their teaching programme evolves and develops and to see not just new talent and new design solutions but to see how those designs are presented.

Japan Retur

Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Gammel Strandvej 13, Humlebæk

Works here are drawn from the collection and mark major themes in art since the Second World War looking at vibrant colour that has a major and immediate impact and the exploration of forms and textures that step well beyond realism or a depiction of colours and shapes and forms in the natural world. The exhibition in the lower galleries looks also at two major themes from art from the middle of the 20th century onwards … men and masculinity and war and conflict.
