BLACKLANDS celebrates the deep allure of art in the color black.
The project is produced and curated by Mariam Zakarian,
and features artist interviews, group exhibitions, live music performances, and the signature BLACKLANDS Catalogue,
where it is possible to purchase some of the beautiful, dark pieces.
The 1st exhibition was in 2023 in collaboration with the gorgeous Lövendahl boutique in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The 2nd edition in 2024 was expanded with additional weeks at the elegant Galleri Ørn in Frederiksberg.
BLACKLANDS keeps evolving, and the latest artist voices can be found in the articles below.
