I Separat har Dana Sederowsky skapat en karaktär som aktivt väljer bort samhället. En karaktär som vägrar behöva någon annan än sig själv. I en blandning av korta, lösryckta meningar, listor, protokoll, långa stycken och tomma sidutrymmen beskrivs här ett liv i total social isolering. Andra människor betraktas på…

BORO: Nödens konst handlar om idérikedom sprungen ur brist. Om spår av historia och minnen i lappade och lagade tyger. Den beskriver en japansk textilkultur där minsta tygbit togs till vara på och där kreationer av sparsamhet gick i arv, generation efter generation. Boken innehåller en fotodokumentation av nyckelverk…

It´s probably a combination of the material and the special way in which colors are rendered that gives Polaroid images their often jewel-like aura. It´s a quality that is there almost independently of what the image depicts, although the motif can further boost this effect in quite a palpable way. This is very much…

Metamorphoses, illusory effects, theatricality, and artificiality. Overloaded ornamentality, bombast, sentimentality, breaches of style, and contrasts. Spiritual and Dionysian ecstasy, dreams, and visions. The world is a stage and life is a dream. A fascination with death, or beauty in death. All this and much more can…

Scenografi är ingen suverän konstart. Dess betydelse och gestaltningsförmåga uppstår i mötet med skådespelarna på scenen och dessförinnan i samarbetet med regissörer och övriga konstnärer. Däri ligger dess komplexitet som visuellt uttrycksmedel och dess utmaningar. I denna bok belyser en av Sveriges mest framgångsrika…

Ingemar Lööf föddes i ett enkelt arbetarhem i Kristinehamn 1929. Fadern som var murare hade gärna sett att Ingemar fortsatt i samma spår som han själv, men Ingemar hade andra planer. Att i 1940-talets Sverige, långt bort från akademier och lärosäten bestämma sig som 19-åring att bli konstnär måste ha varit ett stort…

In the heyday of modernism, the Swedish artist Greta Knutson (1899-1983) was, along with her husband Tristan Tzara, a respected member of the avant-garde in Paris. Although her exhibitions were favourably reviewed by her contemporaries, Knutson’s body of work has never been given the attention it deserves. With…

The poles in our conceptual schema of the development of art are analogous to human life, which is placed between two…

Add shellac,…
