Berlin – correct me if i’m critical
August 30~2010

Art used as criticism is the focus of exhibition correct me if i’m critical, that runs from the 12th of September until the 2nd of November 2010. Nordic and international artists such as Annika Eriksson, Daniel Knorr, Florian Zeyfang, Slavs and Tatars, Marcus Degerman and Olof Dreijer use form, ideas and a contemporary approach to “stage” art as a critical observer, executed with both humor and subtleness. As a reaction to the Scandinavian context of political correctness and with Berlin as the backdrop, the entire project aims to investigate the question of how critical knowledge and criticism has been positioned by artistic practices.

Oslo – Grand National
August 26~2010

Grand National, visitable until October 3, 2010, is the most extensive exhibition of works by British artists to be held in Norway in over a decade. The show, curated by Charles Danby, takes as its starting point the contemporary position of artists located in an internationally bound artworld in which national heritages are no longer the dominant strategies they once were.

Venezia – Claire Fontaine: Unbuilding
August 24~2010


Zürich – Sue Williams at Eva Presenhuber
August 23~2010

Unlike many of her contemporaries, who in confronting the classically male dominated medium of painting turned to other modes of expression such as film, photography, or installation, Sue Williams remained committed to her familiar terrain. Until September 18, her narrative paintings will be visible at Eva Presenhuber Gallery, Zurich. The work of the American artist, who became known to a wide audience with her visual stories that express her rage over the enduring acceptance of sexism in society, has constantly moved along a narrow line between figurative depiction and complete abstraction. In her new paintings, these two realms are mixed anew, and Sue Williams thus explores an entirely new way of working.

London – 27 Senses at Chisenhale Gallery
July 21~2010

‘27 Senses’ at Chisenhale Gallery is an exhibition based around the participating artists’ investigation into a forgotten moment in the life of seminal artist Kurt Schwitters. The first stage of the exhibition took place in the summer of 2007 in the form of a visit to Norway by Kenneth Goldsmith and UbuWeb, Carl Michael von Hausswolff and Selmer Nilsen, Karl Holmqvist, Jutta Koether and Eline McGeorge. On this occasion they discovered the Schwitters Hütte – a small Merzbau-like structure on the remote island of Hjertøya that the artist inhabited and transformed during his exile from Germany in the 1930s. This research trip served as an initial on-site exploration of the presence of Schwitters in the area, and as a basis for the creation of site-specific works. The exhibition at Chisenhale is the third stage of the project, following the exhibion at Kunstmuseet KUBE in 2009.

Malmö – Suppose it is true after all? What then?
July 20~2010


Ryan Trecartin, Matias Faldbakken and Tobias Madison have a thing in common: they’re all interested in how a strongly defined visual language, stemming from the awareness of information and linguistics as a tool, can form the basis for identity creation and artistic integrity. Until August 15th, their work will be exhibited in the show ‘Suppose it is true after all? What then?’ at Johan Berggren Gallery, Malmö. From very different starting points, the artists evolve their practice around visual strategies reflecting chance, trial-and-error and linguistic flow in its purest form.
