kulstofpris

Kulstofpris is a contemporary art installation located in Hadsund, Denmark. It was designed by Danish artist Broddi Bjarnason and his brother Kali Bjarnason, and completed in 2008.

The installation consists of a large artificial ski slope made of carbon fiber and steel, measuring 70 meters long and 30 meters high. The two brothers designed the structure to be both functional and sculptural, allowing visitors to ski down the slope and experience the thrill of speeding down a large artificial mountain.

Kulstofpris was built in a modular design, with interchangeable sections that can be rearranged and reassembled. The structure's framework is made of steel, while the ski slope itself is constructed of carbon fiber panels.

The installation has been used for recreational purposes, with skiers and snowboarders able to rent equipment and ride the slope during the winter months. During the summer, the slope is covered with a removable steel cover, transforming it into a flat plane.

In addition to its functional purpose, Kulstofpris has also become a notable cultural landmark in the region. It has been visited by tourists and locals alike, and has been featured in various media outlets and publications.

Broddi and Kali Bjarnason founded the cultural organization Kunstkubek in association with kulstofpris, with the aim of creating a community space for people to engage with art and culture. The organization has hosted various exhibitions, workshops, and events at kulstofpris, further enhancing the installation's cultural significance in the region.
