🎭 Some portraits reveal. Others conceal.

A glimpse inside No Feeling Is Final, volkerhermes solo exhibition, now on view at MACA Museum

In Volkerhermes’ Hidden Portraits, visages recede beneath cascades of silk, lace, ribbons, and ornament. Deprived of the portrait’s traditional focal point, the gaze begins to wander; towards the details that once signified lineage, status, taste, and belonging.

What emerges is not an absence of identity, but a reconsideration of how identity is constructed, performed, and perceived. Is the concealed face an invitation to look elsewhere?🪞

Across the exhibition, historical portraiture unfolds as something unexpectedly contemporary: a meditation on visibility, self-fashioning, and the enduring tension between what portrait can reveal and withhold.

✨ No Feeling Is Final is on view at MACA Museum until 24 January 2027 in the ❤️ Copenhagen

This week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Val, a weekly intern from European School Copenhagen who closely engaged and worked with us at MACA Museum ✨

Val explored the MACA collection to choose an artwork for posting. Here are Val’s insightful comments 💛

“Bansky’s “Toxic Mary”, exhibited in our museum, is one of our largest pieces, and makes a strong political stance. It’s immediately evocative of warfare and the use of religion as a weapon of war. It can feel both intimate and horrifying, the threat of death looming over an image of mother and child, something that often brings comfort. Could it suggest that ideologies passed down through generations can bring harm, and will not protect people when they need protection? What do you imagine the symbolism of the only colour being on the bottle and the dots overhead could mean?

Even though it was originally made in 2003 for “Turf War” in London, it still holds political relevance today, with more wars threatening children’s safety. Wars rely on people to turn to hysteria over reason.
The mother may not be able to see the poison she is giving to her child, Banksy could be stating here that we are all blind to the systems of violence we perpetuate through whatever beliefs we may have.”

Thank you, Val, for your curiosity, insight, and beautiful reflections. We hope to continue inspiring many more young adults through art, dialogue, and critical thinking ❤️❤️

🪑🤍 DESIGN WEEK | 10–12 JUNE 🛋️🤍

What if the future of furniture isn’t handcrafted nostalgia, but intelligent production?

From 10–12 June, in occasion of MACA Museum presents the work of , a designer redefining how contemporary furniture is conceived and made.

Operating as a self described one man furniture factory, Rottier combines digital design, CNC fabrication, and a highly local production network to create furniture that is precise, adaptable, and built with minimal waste. His work challenges traditional ideas of craftsmanship and explores how technology can create more sustainable ways of producing for the way we live today.

On view will be pieces from the AR15 and other series, modular collections designed to evolve with changing spaces and needs. Made from recyclable aluminum and engineered for longevity, the works embody a vision of design that is flexible, repairable, and rooted in the realities of contemporary living.

Rather than looking back, Rottier’s practice looks forward, proving that innovation, efficiency, and sustainability can coexist without compromise.

Join us at MACA Museum during to discover a new approach to furniture design 🤍💺

has struck again, and this time it is not a mural 🏢

In his typical secretive manner, the artist revealed a new work overnight in central London. On this occasion, it is a sculpture; a striking figure of a man with his face obscured by a flag, delivered with the provocative language only Banksy can command. A warning to humanity about the danger of extreme nationalism.

We were there.

And remember, Banksy is not just a fleeting presence on the streets. He is also a resident at MACA Museum. Stop by to explore our exhibition, featuring over 50 original works from one of the most influential voices in contemporary art ❤️

The Unveiling: Volker Hermes | No Feeling Is Final
MACA Museum is thrilled to unveil our new exhibition: .hermes, ‘’No Feeling Is Final’’.

🗓️ 28 April 2026 – 24 January 2027. (The exhibition can be experienced with a regular museum ticket).

In Volker’s world, historical opulence meets scrupulous contemporary intervention. No Feeling Is Final explores the latest in Volker Hermes’ series of “Hidden Portrait” works, where the artist digitally alters historical portraits by concealing the sitter’s face using elements from the original paintings. This subtle yet striking gesture draws attention to details such as costume, interior spaces, and ornament; features that once played a central role in expressing identity, social status, and power.

The exhibition is an exploration of how identity is constructed and interpreted in a culture often dominated by facial likeness alone. By shifting the focus away from the visage, Hermes invites viewers to reconsider the continuing relevance of portraiture today.

MACA Museum expresses its deep gratitude to .hermes and all collaborators who made this exhibition possible, and we look forward to welcoming you into this new experience in the ❤️ of Copenhagen!

Step into the laboratory 🧪✨

❤️ We’re excited to present Experiment 118 by the Godfather of Pop Surrealism, Mark Ryden, now available at MACA as a stunning limited edition print of just 250 pieces signed by Mark Ryden! ❤️

Originally featured in Ryden’s 2017 solo exhibition Dodecahedron at Paul Kasmin Gallery in New York, Experiment 118 reflects his exploration of sacred geometry and the symbolic dodecahedron, long associated with the cosmos and the unseen forces of the universe ✨

In this 2015 masterpiece, Ryden blurs the line between childhood innocence and alchemical mystery. A young girl sits in quiet contemplation, surrounded by a cabinet of curiosities, translucent orbs, anatomical forms, and symbolic objects that echo centuries old alchemical traditions 🔮

This edition is expected to sell out quickly, so don’t miss your chance. Order your Experiment 118 print at artsy.net or our online shop macamuseum.com while you can!
