Jack Kabangu (b. Zambia 1996)

Gallery owner Christoffer Egelund has decorated this year’s Art Tree with an original work by the highly sought-after Danish artist Jack Kabangu. The work was exhibited at Galleri Christoffer Egelund on Bredgade in autumn 2023 in connection with a solo exhibition featuring Jack Kabangu. The tree also comes with two books about Jack Kabangu, published in connection with the solo exhibition. “I love the work of Jack Kabangu. He’s a young artist of 26 who emigrated from the Congo with his parents 15 years ago. Jack is a young person who has witnessed a little of everything but has now become a world-renowned artist. So, I think it makes perfect sense to donate a work of his for the benefit of vulnerable children and young people. And I also think it’s nice that it depicts an angel as we approach the Christmas season.” – Christoffer Egelund

By bidding on one or more of the 11 fantastic trees, you not only get an ocean of wonderful designs and experiences, but you also help vulnerable children and young people during a festive season that can be difficult, when it’s not possible to spend Christmas safe at home. The sum raised from the auction goes, among other things, towards giving children and young people who are forced to spend Christmas in women’s shelters, residential institutions, hospitals or the like, some lovely, cosy Christmas experiences.
