Marie-Louise Ekman Moderna Museet Catalogue

This richly illustrated catalogue is the first virtually total overview of Marie-Louise Ekman’s long and winding artistic practice. In the texts, the poet Kristina Lugn and the playwright Martina Montelius each portray their friend and colleague. Jo Widoff, curator at Moderna Museet, describes the artists serious sense of humour while the art historian Lars Bang Larsen focuses on the groundbreaking movie Hallo Baby (1976) and the surrealist element in Ekman’s art. The art critics Maria Lind and Azar Mahmoudian relate her to an art historic context and identify how her body of work influences contemporary art.
