Tonny Tromborg Sørensen

Tonny Tromborg Sørensen works with high-end equipment and pushes his camera beyond its intended limits — capturing images that are, in one sense, profoundly still, and in another, impossible to leave. They move you. They act as portals.
The camera, pushed beyond its comfort, finds what the eye alone cannot hold: the moment where the physical world becomes transparent to something behind it.

To imagine God is not to picture a face. It is to stand before something vast and feel the ground shift. That is what Sørensen’s photographs do.

A former world champion in Taekwondo and the founder of Von Dutch. But his art is not about biography. It is about what a life of discipline and vulnerability produces
— a quality of attention that, when turned toward the world, finds it trembling with more than itself.

We at MAXUS101 are proud to present the paintings of Paul Cunningham.

Step into a world of color, texture and singular vision — Paul’s work has a presence you have to experience in person.

The gallery is open all weekend, 12:00–18:00, and you are warmly welcome to drop by, take your time, and discover Paul’s art and his unique voice.

Too far away to visit? Don’t hesitate to reach out — we’ll gladly send you artwork availability and prices directly to your inbox.

We’re also delighted to be showing Paul at Enter Art Fair, Scandinavia’s largest art fair — but before that, come see the work up close, here at the gallery.

📍 Find us at Ørestads Boulevard 61 2300 København S

We look forward to welcoming you this weekend.

Kind regards, Anthon — MAXUS101

“Jeg satte mig ud i marsken inden solopgang og afventede hvilke fronter Vorherre ville sende ind.” — Henrik Saxgren

Det var filosoffen Alex O’Connor, der satte de første tanker i gang, som blev den røde tråd i udstillingen Imagining God til Copenhagen Photofestival. Han formulerede et særligt argument: hvis der skal findes en grund til at tro på Gud, så er det ikke som en første årsag for milliarder af år siden, men som en opretholdende kraft i dette helt konkrete øjeblik.

Når jeg ser på Henrik Saxgrens billeder, hører jeg den samme tanke i en anden tone. Han forsøger ikke at skabe billedet. Han venter på det. Han stiller sig ud i marsken, i sneen, ved havet — og lader noget større tage form.
Det er en sårbar og modtagelig holdning. Ikke styrende, men åben. Og det er netop denne holdning, jeg ønsker at undersøge med Imagining God:
Er der noget, der holder alt oppe lige nu, i dette øjeblik? Noget i landskabet, i lyset, i selve det at vi eksisterer — som vi ikke selv har sat i gang?

Jeg ved det ikke. Men Alex O’Connors tanker og Henrik Saxgrens særlige måde at arbejde på er et ærligt og stærkt sted at begynde at lede.

Kan svaret være at vente — og være der, når lyset kommer?

Mia Mai’s untitled photographs — coming to life almost like paintings of human longing, developed by water and light — are a testament to the unique quality of photography, and to its ability to say what words cannot.

For me, they open up a deeper question: Are we ultimately searching for God, or is it a more earthly longing — to be fully human, unjudged, and free?

Mia Mai’s works will be a part of the group show “Imagining God” opening June 12 as a part of Copenhagen Photo Festival

“Within Melancholia we were working with moments of classical painterly beauty, which Lars von Trier called Wagner Moments: we tried to find a place where a renaissance painter would have laid down their subject to make them look like they were connecting with God.” — Manuel Alberto Claro, DOP, Melancholia (EKI 05)

—-

This will be the first time we present a work by Manuel that has actually been part of a film. Manuel was awarded the European Film Award for Best Cinematography for his work on Lars von Trier’s Melancholia — and the piece fits perfectly into the curatorial frame for our group show “Imagining God.”

We have previously shown two bodies of work by Manuel Claro at the gallery: Samuel — a coming-of-age series about his own son, which we presented at Copenhagen Photo Festival in 2024 — and Stille liv, a series of photographs taken on and around film sets, but never of the films themselves.

Please join us for the opening of the group show “Imagining God” on June 12 at MAXUS101, as part of Copenhagen Photo Festival.

What holds the beauty in Neeltje de Vries’ images?

Her work carries a beauty that is never adorned. The body itself becomes architecture — the line of the spine, the curve of the arm, the shoulder. She photographs the human form the way one photographs a cathedral: with quiet respect for what carries itself. Light falls on skin as it falls on stone — not to expose, but to let the form emerge.

There is innocence in her images — not as a lack of knowledge, but as a state that exists before self-consciousness. The woman resting over the back of an armchair. Two figures by the pool, back to back, water on their skin. The figure in the desert, lifting a branch toward the sky. None of them pose. None of them ask for anything.

Perhaps this is what we long for when we imagine God: not a power, not a judge, but a place where we belong. A home in the body. A space that carries us while we become.

Neeltje de Vries’ works are part of the group exhibition Imagining God, opening at Copenhagen Photo Festival on June 12.

And we will also present Neetjle’s works at Enter Art Fair 27-30 of August

“The album’s front cover and booklet photography was by long-time friend of the band, Kevin Westenberg.”

This is what Soundgarden wrote on their post celebrating the 30th anniversary of Down on the Upside.

With the amount of albums Kevin has photographed, there’s a real chance you already have one of his photos in your house.

What many don’t know is that Copenhagen played a pivotal role in his journey. Forty-plus years ago, while studying architecture abroad in the city, Kevin bought his first camera here and stayed with a local family connected to the Danish punk scene. That experience changed everything — shifting him from architecture toward the photography that would define his career.

From the gallery’s perspective — and with our upcoming group show Imagining God — we are so excited to have Kevin’s works as part of it. The energy his photography brings, and the way it works alongside the other artists in the show… you might just find God in it and start seeing everything a little differently.
