Den bild vi har i Sverige idag av den internationella konstnärsskara som samlades i den franska byn Grez-sur-Loing under 1870- och 80-talen, präglas i hög grad av sin tids nationalistiska kulturklimat, men också av den konstruktion av platsen och fenomenet konstnärskoloni som både konstnärer och konsthistoriker skapat i efterhand.

Tuija Lindström was one of Sweden's foremost photographic artists and was highly influential in Finland as well. This is the second of two books covering her work from 1980 onwards. Many of the images in the book carry on chronologically from where the last book left off, giving an overview of her production from the start of the 1990s to the 2000s. The themes of beauty and death, life and humanity, are at the heart of the works. The artist approaches these subjects in her powerful and direct, yet tangibly sensitive style. Tuija Lindström was born in 1950 in Finland and passed away in Stockholm in 2017. Between 1992 and 2002 Tuija Lindström was Sweden's first female professor in photography at the School of Photography and Film at the University of Gothenburg. The book In The Beginning There Was Everything was published in conjunction with an exhibition at the Finnish Museum of Photography in Helsinki.

Inside Bridgerton [Bok / Inbunden]

The notion and nature of play has puzzled and inspired thinkers over the course of history. Interpreted as excessive, illusive, and unproductive, play and imagination have over time permeated cultural spheres and now emerge from the 20th century as two critical ingredients of today s artistic and political discourse. Emphasizing productivity through spontaneity, risk, freedom and pleasure, the act of play and radical imagination have motivated not only significant research and experimentation within the arts, but also social and political change. As artist practices, curatorial models, and institutional frameworks continue to shift, each development makes visible the transformative impact of this critical investigation. This book reflects the conceptual backbone of 2013 Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art Play! Recapturing the Radical Imagination and illuminates an active discourse.
