Inuuteq Storch at MoMA PS1: Soon Will Summer Be over
Past exhibition
About
MoMA PS1 presents the first US solo exhibition of photographer Inuuteq Storch (Kalaaleq, b. 1989), tracing the artist’s practice over the past decade. Soon Will Summer Be Over highlights Storch’s approach to imaging moments of intimacy, mundanity, and sublimity across Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), often focusing on his hometown of Sisimiut—a town of 5,500 people just north of the Arctic Circle. Storch documents the textures and rhythms of communities navigating the crossroads of Inuit traditions, Danish colonial influences, climate crises, and the pressures of globalization.
Inuuteq Storch is a photographer and artist from Sisimiut, Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland). In 2024, Storch represented Denmark at the 60th Venice Biennale, as the first Greenlandic artist to do so. He attended the International Centre of Photography, New York, and the Fatamorgana School of Photography, Copenhagen. Storch has exhibited at the Sharjah Art Biennial; Buffalo AKG Art Museum; Akureyri Art Museum, Iceland; Frankfurt Ray Triennale; FOFA Gallery, Montreal; Nordatlantens Brygge Art Institute, Copenhagen; Gammel Strand Kunsthal, Copenhagen; and Center for Photography, Copenhagen, among other venues. His work is in the collections of Moderna Museet, Stockholm, and Kunsten Museum of Modern Art, Aalborg, Denmark, among others.
