Author: Andersson, Mamma
Mamma Andersson ranks as one of the most important painters of her generation. The Swedish artist is an eminent interpreter of the unique language of painting. With a sharp sense of mood, colour and materiality, she has developed a personal take on the classical genres of painting: still lifes, interiors and landscapes are at the crux of her work. This catalogue accompanies the Louisiana’s exhibition and contains contributions from the author Karl Ove Knausgård and others. Her signature aesthetic is the result of repeated applications and overpainting. Oil on canvas is covered in spray paint, paint is dragged in thin bands across the surface, producing a material fullness and variety.Others featured include the playwright Magnus Florin and the art writer and poet Barry Schwabsky, in addition to a conversation between Mamma Andersson and the exhibition’s curator, Marie Laurberg.
ISBN 9788793659414. Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. hb. 176 pages. 80 colour, 5 b/w ills. 24 x 31 cm.
