Dit-Cilinn – Carrier Waves
21 August - 27 September 2014 Inside the hermetic chamber of the sculpture White Lilly lies a mind devoid of the immediate corporal experiences we take for granted on the outside.

Matthias van Arkel – Loop
22 August - 29 September 2013 Matthias van Arkel´s characteristic tongues of colour weave his paintings together.

Matthias van Arkel´s paintings spread out like... Read more -
Jean-Baptiste Béranger – Telles que sont les choses
16 May - 15 June 2013 För att göra sina bilder isolerar Jean-Baptiste Béranger gärna någon aspekt av den fotografiska apparaten – ljus, lins, film, avtryck, spår osv. – för att se om den på egen hand kan ge upphov till fotografiska bilder, kameran förutan. När han så gör ett avtryck i snön (indexikalitet), är det... Read more -
Linda Hofvander – Alterations
11 April - 12 May 2013 Let’s start with the X that indicates where it “took place”, so that we have a point from which to start and perhaps return to. The X constitutes a specific situation in the sense that it is both a symbol as well as a location. Two branches have been painted... Read more -
