Summary:
L'artiste suédoise Mamma Andersson peint des intérieurs empreints de mélancolie, exécutés avec élégance dans un style unique juxtaposant les textures et les techniques picturales. Cette série de peintures propose une variation autour de motifs sculpturaux, mis en scène dans des espaces domestiques ou cadrés en plan rapproché. Inspirées par les mises en scènes cinématographique et théâtrale, ou les peintures d'époque, les compositions de Karin Mamma Andersson (née en 1962, Luleå, Suède, vit et travaille à Stockholm) se caractérisent par leur sensibilité onirique et leur expressivité. Si ses références stylistiques vont de la peinture figurative nordique du début du XXe siècle à l'art populaire et vernaculaire, son utilisation de l'espace pictural et ses juxtapositions de peintures épaisses et de dessins au lavis lui sont propres. L'artiste prend régulièrement pour sujet des paysages et des intérieurs où s'expriment la mélancolie. En 2011, le travail d'Andersson a fait l'objet d'une exposition individuelle au Museum Haus Esters à Krefeld, en Allemagne. Elle a également exposé au Aspen Art Museum, Colorado, en 2010, à la Douglas Hyde Gallery, Dublin, en 2009, ainsi qu'au Moderna Museet, Stockholm, pour une rétrospective célébrée qui voyagera à la Kunsthalle Helsinki et au Camden Arts Centre de Londres. En 2006, Mamma Andersson a remporté le Carnegie Art Award, prix prestigieux consacrant la peinture nordique. Son travail a été présenté au Pavillon nordique à la 50e Biennale de Venise en 2003. Ses œuvres font partie des collections du Dallas Museum of Art, du Göteborgs Konstmuseum, (Göteborg, Suède), du Hammer Museum (Los Angeles), du Magasin 3 (Stockholm), du Malmö Konstmuseum (Suède), du Museum of Contemporary Art (Los Angeles), du Museum of Modern Art (New York), du Moderna Museet (Stockholm) et du Västerås Konstmuseum (Suède).

Featuring essays by curators Joni Low and Anne-Marie St-Jean Aubre, the publication explores ideas of performativity and labour, material resilience and decay, the work’s presentation in both public and gallery space, and exchanges between humans and matter that prompt shifts in understandings of agency, causation and relations. A conversation with the artists expands on the deeper personal and political underpinnings in their engagements with entropy and colour.

This book is part of my ongoing investigation into Beatrice Wood's inspiring example, including ceramic works and collage.

Summary:
Occult practices, seances and magic have traditionally been met with suspicion in the world of high culture, but they are currently getting a fresh look. Turns out, they have long had a quiet influence on art--at least since the mid-1800s. The Message demonstrates this fascinating history with paranormal-influenced paintings, drawings and thought photographs, a term for the phenomenon of imprinting an image from one's mind directly onto a photographic medium--something we've all at least wished we could do... By the early eighteenth century, the occult had found a home in the arts with the advent of Surrealism--in 1933, Andre Breton discussed these inexplicable phenomena in his text, The Automatic Message. This publication borrows its name from Breton's text; and features early-twentieth-century photographs of seances from the archive of parapsychologist Albert von Schrenck-Notzing, which vividly illustrate Breton's ideas
