There are pieces of furniture, books, natural light and traces of everyday life. The works share space with everything that would normally remain outside an exhibition room.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This isn&#8217;t merely an aesthetic question. Behind <em>Sunday-S<\/em>\u00a0lies a reflection on how we look at contemporary art, how much time we give it and what happens when we stop treating it as something exceptional that we visit and begin incorporating it into everyday life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">At a time built around images competing to capture our attention for a few seconds, <em>Ibsen<\/em> seems to argue for precisely the opposite: works capable of resisting the quick glance.<\/p>\n<h6>Peter Ibsen and the art that stays with you<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>Peter Ibsen<\/em> has been collecting contemporary art for more than 25 years. During that time, his eye has changed, but one essential element of his relationship with a work has remained: the physical response that can arise from a first encounter.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105359 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1100\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-25.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-25-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-25-283x425.jpg 283w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-25-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-25-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cI still value that immediate physical reaction: a work has to stay with me, even unsettle me a little, after I have left the room,\u201d<\/em> he explains.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Intuition remains important, although the years have taught him to distrust seduction that is too immediate. Rather than works that reveal themselves at once, <em>Ibsen<\/em> is increasingly drawn to those that hold something back.<\/p>\n<h2>\u201cI want visitors to feel comfortable enough to look slowly and return more than once to the same work.\u201d P. Ibsen<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">That distinction feels especially relevant within a cultural ecosystem dominated by speed. A work may be spectacular, photogenic or instantly understandable and yet quickly exhaust itself. For <em>Ibsen<\/em>, attraction and lasting interest are not necessarily the same thing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cOver time, I have learned not to confuse instant attraction with lasting interest. The works I return to are often those that keep something in reserve. They do not reveal everything immediately, but continue to open up as you look at them, live with them and discover new layers.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105365 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-08.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1100\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-08.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-08-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-08-283x425.jpg 283w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-08-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-08-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">His collection and his work as a gallerist have been shaped around that curiosity. He is equally interested in young artists who are still relatively unknown and in artists from earlier generations whose work may have been overlooked or forgotten.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">In both cases, there is the pleasure of discovery: noticing something that has not yet received enough attention, or looking again at something we thought we already knew.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For <em>Ibsen<\/em>, the question is not the artist\u2019s status but the internal necessity of the work: <em>\u201cWhat interests me is not whether an artist is already established, but whether the work has a necessity of its own, depth and the ability to remain alive over time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<h6>A gallery that feels like a home<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The philosophy of <em>Sunday-S<\/em> finds its clearest expression in the space itself. Its Copenhagen location occupies a former apartment. Some rooms function as exhibition spaces, while others incorporate works from <em>Ibsen<\/em>\u2019s private collection. There is none of the radical separation between art and life that defines so many contemporary galleries.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105357 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1092\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll5.jpg 1092w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll5-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll5-281x425.jpg 281w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll5-768x1160.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll5-1017x1536.jpg 1017w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1092px) 100vw, 1092px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Natural light also plays a fundamental role. In contrast to the controlled lighting of the white cube, here the works change as the day changes. The architecture, furniture and objects surrounding them inevitably alter our perception.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For <em>Ibsen<\/em>, far from being a problem, that contamination is precisely part of the experience: <em>\u201cContext changes everything. In a home, a work becomes part of a lived rhythm: it is seen in morning light, alongside books, furniture, conversations and everyday life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>Sunday-S<\/em>\u00a0was born, to a large extent, from his desire to escape the coldness that a traditional gallery can create. The domestic format also lowers a psychological barrier that often goes unnoticed within the art world: many people still feel they need to understand certain codes before entering a gallery.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Here, the opposite happens. Visitors tend to stay longer and conversations take on greater depth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cThis doesn&#8217;t make the art less serious; on the contrary, it allows for a more intimate and probably more honest relationship. At Sundays, I want visitors to feel comfortable enough to look slowly and return more than once to the same work.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Hospitality therefore ceases to be a peripheral detail and becomes part of the curatorial project.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105361 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-20.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1100\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-20.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-20-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-20-283x425.jpg 283w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-20-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-20-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>Slow looking as an act of resistance<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>Sunday-S<\/em>\u00a0can also be read as a defence of <em>slow looking<\/em>, a form of contemplation that feels almost countercultural today.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Every day, we look at hundreds of images. We consume, classify and forget them with remarkable speed. Social media, advertising, media platforms and digital culture have turned immediate impact into one of the currencies of our visual world.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>Ibsen<\/em> proposes a different relationship with the image: <em>\u201cLooking slowly means allowing yourself not to understand immediately. It means giving a work enough time to become more complex, even more difficult.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Not understanding can be uncomfortable. Especially because we are used to searching for quick explanations, references and contexts capable of resolving whatever lies in front of us. Art, however, retains an exceptional ability to leave certain questions open.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105353 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1179\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll1.jpg 1179w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll1-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll1-304x425.jpg 304w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll1-768x1075.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll1-1098x1536.jpg 1098w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1179px) 100vw, 1179px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cWe are surrounded by images that demand an instant reaction, but art can offer precisely the opposite: a pause, a resistance and a space for our own thoughts.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Perhaps one of the best ways to measure the intensity of a work is precisely to see what happens once it is no longer in front of us.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cThe most powerful works do not end when you have finished looking at them; they should continue working inside you afterwards,\u201d<\/em> says <em>Ibsen<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It is an idea that explains much of <em>Sunday-S<\/em>. The aim is not simply to show artists, but to create the conditions in which this kind of encounter can take place.<\/p>\n<h6>When art stops being a visit<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The transformation becomes even more profound when a work becomes part of a domestic space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">In a cultural institution or gallery, we go deliberately to look at art. The experience has a relatively clear beginning and end. We enter, observe, move through the space and leave.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Living with a work changes that temporality completely: <em>\u201cArt becomes a companion rather than an object. When you live with a work, it changes with your mood, the seasons and the light; sometimes it disappears into the background and then suddenly becomes completely present again.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105347 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll8.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1091\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll8.jpg 1091w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll8-198x300.jpg 198w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll8-281x425.jpg 281w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll8-768x1162.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery_FrankMoll8-1016x1536.jpg 1016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1091px) 100vw, 1091px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">That alternation between presence and absence is probably one of the deepest forms of intimacy we can have with art. A painting, photograph or sculpture stops demanding constant attention. It becomes part of the everyday landscape until one day, for some reason, we look at it again. The work may not have changed, but we have.<\/p>\n<h2>\u201cArt becomes a companion rather than an object. When you live with a work, it changes with your mood, the seasons and the light.\u201d P. Ibsen<\/h2>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">For <em>Ibsen<\/em>, living with art also affects the way we perceive what lies beyond the home: <em>\u201cIt changes the way we see the world, our city and our life in general, and ultimately influences our choices and our actions as well.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Understood in this way, collecting is not simply about owning valuable or meaningful objects. It can become a way of shaping sensitivity.<\/p>\n<h6>Copenhagen, Paris and R\u00f8rvig: three ways of being Sundays<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The world of <em>Sunday-S<\/em> currently extends across very different settings. In Copenhagen, the project retains the intimacy of an apartment. Paris continues that idea within another urban and cultural context.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">During the summer, <em>R\u00f8rvig Contemporary<\/em> takes the conversation to a former stable near the coast of <em>Zealand<\/em>, where landscape and architecture once again transform our perception of the works.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105367 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-26.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1100\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-26.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-26-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-26-283x425.jpg 283w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-26-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-26-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The diversity of these locations is deliberate: <em>\u201cEach place has its own character \u2014 an apartment in Copenhagen, a Parisian home, an old stable in R\u00f8rvig \u2014 but all of them invite a close encounter with art,\u201d<\/em> explains <em>Ibsen<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">There is therefore no corporate aesthetic to be repeated from one city to another. What matters is preserving a particular emotional condition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cSunday-S isn&#8217;t about creating identical spaces, but about generating the conditions in which a work, an artist and a visitor can meet without too much distance or formality.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The idea may sound simple, but it questions many of the conventions on which the contemporary gallery experience has been built. At <em>Sunday-S<\/em>, the space does not attempt to disappear so that we see only the work. Architecture, furniture, light and even conversation inevitably become part of the encounter.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105351 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1092\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery2.jpg 1092w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery2-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery2-281x425.jpg 281w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery2-768x1160.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery2-1017x1536.jpg 1017w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1092px) 100vw, 1092px\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>Art, design and objects that survive the passage of time<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">This interest in the things we bring into our lives connects <em>Sunday-S<\/em>\u00a0with another of <em>Peter Ibsen<\/em>\u2019s projects: <em>A. Petersen<\/em>, which he describes as his <em>passion project<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">While <em>Sunday-S<\/em>\u00a0focuses on contemporary art and the emotional response a work can provoke, <em>A. Petersen<\/em> allows him to explore the territory of design, craftsmanship and objects from a more material and collaborative perspective.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105349 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-18.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1100\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-18.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-18-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-18-283x425.jpg 283w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-18-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/SundayS-NolwennPernin-18-1024x1536.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Its starting point lies in a respect for the tradition of Danish design, although it also functions as a platform for new ideas, makers and international conversations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The boundaries between the two projects are clear, but they share the same understanding of our relationship with things.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>\u201cBoth come together in my belief that objects \u2014 whether a painting, a chair, a piece of ceramics or a sculpture \u2014 should have presence, integrity and the ability to acquire meaning over time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">In a world saturated with objects designed to be replaced, this defence of permanence takes on a meaning that goes beyond collecting.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">It is not about accumulating more, but about choosing better. Nor is it about turning every everyday object into a work of art, but about recognising that what we decide to live with ultimately shapes our perception.<\/p>\n<h6>The luxury of paying attention<\/h6>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\"><em>Sunday-S<\/em> belongs to a generation of spaces reconsidering the boundaries between gallery, private collection, home and meeting place. Yet its interest doesn&#8217;t lie solely in the apartment format.<\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">What feels truly contemporary about <em>Peter Ibsen<\/em>\u2019s proposal may be precisely what appears least spectacular: creating the conditions necessary to pay attention.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-105363 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1092\" height=\"1650\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery.jpg 1092w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery-281x425.jpg 281w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery-768x1160.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ccmagazine.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Sunday-S_Gallery-1017x1536.jpg 1017w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1092px) 100vw, 1092px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">The possibility of living with images and objects that don&#8217;t exhaust themselves at first glance, that retain areas of uncertainty and that can accompany us for years without ever becoming completely familiar.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps that is also the essential criterion <em>Peter Ibsen<\/em> has developed after more than 25 years of collecting: looking for works that don&#8217;t need to explain everything in order to keep speaking, and for spaces capable of reminding us that truly looking remains one of the deepest forms of attention.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sundays_cph\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>You can follow this cool art gallery on instagram.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>(*)<\/strong> Photos provided by Peter Ibsen.
