Mats Hjelm – Taste of Salt
3 October - 10 November 2013 Romanticized in literature and myth for its ability to heal and reaffirm, the sea offers an instinctive setting for Mats Hjelm’s meditation on the histories of the transatlantic Middle Passage – the part of the Atlantic slave trade in which millions of people from Africa were shipped to the New...

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

Young In Hong – This is Not Graffiti
16 February - 24 March 2013 Trained as a sculptor, Young In Hong sees her embroidered works rather like three-dimensional constructions than paintings.

Richard G. Carlsson – Workspaces – Dialogues
10 January - 8 February 2013 The work of Richard G. Carlsson (b. 1964) has long been characterized by a subtle expression that incorporates an intriguing dialogue between the abstract and the figurative in the form of sparse, intuitive yet precise non-figurative paintings and pragmatic visual surveys of his own studio space. In this exhibition, Richard... Read more
