Mamma Andersson news

Mamma Andersson joins producer Ben Catford on Nordic Portraits to discuss her career spanning over thirty years, and the evolution of her art practice. 

Caroline Walker’s ’Life Bug Study’ is featured in the Drawing Biennial 2024.

'Faszination Höle', or 'Cave Fascination', explores artistic representations of the cave. The exhibition examines the cave as a place of shelter and spirituality, as well as a threat– a space that is dark and difficult to reach.

'Thin Skin' is an exhibition of paintings by Australian and international artists who explore the liminal space between figuration and abstraction. Guest curated by Australian, London-based writer, curator and former editor of frieze magazine, Jennifer Higgie, it will feature works by more than thirty artists.

We are thrilled to share a selection of recent museum acquisitions. ⁠

Mamma Andersson is included in 'Heat/ Energy', a group exhibition which opens at Kummelholmen, Stockholm in September 2021 before travelling to Körsbärsgården, Gotland. Inspired by the Kummelholmen's architecture, location and former function as a district heating centre, the exhibition explores the interconnections between art, culture, society and ecology. 

'Humdrum Days' at Louisiana Museum is the first major exhibition by Mamma Andersson in Denmark. Featuring almost 60 works including new paintings, the show spans 15 years of Andersson's practice. The presentation was developed in close collaboration with the artist and is accompanied by a catalogue with texts by Magnus Florin, Karl Ove Knausgård, Barry Schwabsky and an interview by the curator Marie Laurberg.

We are delighted to invite you to join Stephen Friedman and owner of Modernity Andrew Duncanson for an online conversation about their collaboration, ‘Stephen Friedman Gallery at The London House of Modernity'. 

Titled 'Binnenskamers' (Inner Spaces), the 7th Biennial of Painting brings together a wide selection of modern and contemporary paintings by both Belgian and international artists. The works included display the diversity of the medium and encompass a thematically wide range of 'inner spaces', from the studio and domestic interiors to the inner realm of the imagination.
