Luise Faurschou

Luise Faurschou is a Copenhagen-based Danish curator, art advisor, cultural entrepreneur, and former art gallerist.
She is the Founding Director of ART 2030, a non profit organization uniting art with the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals. ART 2030 facilitates art projects connected to the UN Global Goals - including public events, art experiences, and educational activities. In 2021 ART 2030 worked with Superflex on the project 'Interspecies Assembly', debuting in New York at the 76th UN General Assembly. In 2019 ART 2030 worked with artist Jeppe Hein on the project 'Breathe With Me', a public art action on display at UN Headquarters from 21 to 24 September, and in Central Park from 25 to 27 September, 2019. In 2017, ART 2030 curated Ai Weiwei's installation Soleil Levant on the façade of the art institution Kunsthal Charlottenborg, in Copenhagen, Denmark. With over 3,500 lifejackets collected from the shores of the Greek island of Lesbos barricading the outer wall of the exhibition gallery, the work renewed focus to the ongoing European migrant crisis, as well as issues surrounding the topics of equality and justice in mainstream and public discourse.
