Often referred to as “the painter of the Albanian transition,” Edi Hila has captured the era following the collapse of the oppressive communist regime, during which a new (and alien) capitalist society was rapidly being implemented.
Through his dense, often dreamlike compositions, Hila conveys a sense of looming lawlessness tempered by a pragmatism infused with subtle humour, grand ambitions, and an air of seemingly endless anticipation.
This exhibition is a collaborative project between Moderna Museet Malmö and Hamburger Kunsthalle, in close dialogue with the artist. It is accompanied by a jointly published multilingual publication.
A more extensive press kit will be available closer to the exhibition opening. For any questions, or requests for additional press images, please contact press.malmo@modernamuseet.se.
