Karriere Bar

Karriere Bar was a bar and restaurant in the Meatpacking District of Copenhagen, Denmark, co-founded by Berlin-based, Danish artist Jeppe Hein in 2007. The establishment featured interactive and Site-specific art by a range of international artists. It opened in 2007 as one of the first new places to open in the Meatpacking District. The artworks are integrated into the design of the restaurant, involving a concept for the menu, the lamp (Eliasson), the moving bar (Hein), a concept for live transmission of the conversation at one of the tables (Cardiff/Miller), the toilets [AVPD] and many other components of the restaurant environment.
