The 60s - The Moderna Museet Collection Malmö - 26 December 2009 - 21 November 2010

In our first presentation of Moderna Museet’s collection, we have chosen to focus on the 60s. A time in which the art is characterized by a drive to approach a reality outside the gallery space and to a greater extent fuse with life itself. Here we meet Robert Rauschenberg’s famous goat, Monogram, on the threshold into a new era where the concept ...

Evert Lundquist

Stockholm - 16 January 2010 - 11 April 2010

“The speed at which we live our lives, connected to fast-flowing images, desolate and forever on our way somewhere, gives me a strong longing for the inertia, mystery and personal address of oeuvres such as that of Lundquist.”

Thus writes the curator Fredrik Liew in the catalogue for Moderna Museet’s first exhibition in 2010. The ...

Ed Ruscha: 50 years of painting

Stockholm - 29 May 2010 - 5 September 2010

Curators: Lars Nittve and Ann-Sofi Noring

Ed Ruscha’s paintings are ambiguous and provocative, recycling scraps from popular culture and redefining established genres. Was he one of the first pop artists, a trailblazer for conceptual art, a late surrealist, a pioneer of postmodernism, or - actually - a bit of everything?

Moderna Museet Nu: Erik Chambert

Stockholm - 31 October 2009 - 10 January 2010

Erik Chambert var bildkonstnär, men i lika hög grad formgivare. Han arbetade, likt många av dagens unga kreatörer, gränsöverskridande. Med utgångspunkt i livet självt försökte han förvandla personliga erfarenheter och tankar till ren form. Gemensamt för hans skapande – vare sig det resulterade i en stol, ett textilmönster eller en målning - är en ...

Moderna Museet Now: Anthony McCall

Stockholm - 10 October 2009 - 6 December 2009

Fascination, delight – and caution … The moods we experience are remarkably physical the first time we encounter Anthony McCall’s membranes of light that move osmotically between his strangely shifting spaces within the space. As soon as our eyes adjust to the dark, we experience something new: Solid Light – a material light, a sort of radiant, ...
