Cecilia Edefalk (born 1954) is currently one of Sweden's most internationally prominent visual artists. In her different series of paintings, she creates a unique spatial sense in which repetition and the work´s internal proportional relationships play a considerable role. Often it is the gaze itself – the play between the viewer and the viewed – which is focused upon. Through her use of the grisaille technique, she investigates how the “picture in the picture” (how representation and figuration in the painting) work as catalysts for consciousness and awareness of reality. The 1999 exhibition is a modified version of that which was on display at the Bern Kunsthalle in Switzerland in the autumn of 1998. Curator: Cecilia Widenheim
