V1 Gallery, Contemporary art gallery in Meatpacking District, Copenhagen, Denmark
V1 Gallery is a contemporary art space in Copenhagen's Meatpacking District that displays paintings, sculptures, installations, and photographs from established and emerging artists. The venue occupies a former industrial building with spacious rooms that change regularly with each new exhibition cycle.
This gallery was founded in 2002 and grew into a major venue for Danish and international contemporary artists over the following years. Its emergence coincided with the district's shift from purely industrial use toward becoming a cultural and creative destination.
The space reflects how this former industrial district has transformed into a vibrant hub for creative expression and artistic exchange. Visitors experience how local and international artists connect with audiences in an accessible, informal setting.
The space is easily reached on foot from other parts of the district, which also offers nearby cafes and other art venues to explore. Plan your visit with the gallery's schedule in mind, as opening hours may vary depending on current exhibitions.
The organization runs a second exhibition space called Eighteen in the same neighborhood, allowing two shows to happen at the same time. This setup lets visitors experience multiple artistic perspectives during a single visit to the area.
