Drawings. Miss Terrified feels small, lonely and worthless and shares with us her fears and joys in love. Miss Remarkable knows that you have to become something grand, like a nuclear physicist, a film director or a designer on Manhattan, in order to be a success.

The exhibition features original drawings from Joanna Rubin Dranger’s books “Fröken Livrädd och Kärleken” (Miss Terrified and Love, 1999) and “Fröken Märkvärdig och Karriären” (Miss Remarkable and her Career, 2002).
Until 13 April 2008
Maria Friberg: Boys are us
Photography and video 1998—2008 Maria Friberg is one of our most established artists both in Sweden and abroad. In her photographs and videos she explores concepts such as masculinity and group belonging, social codes and conventions. In her images we are surrounded by men, often young and at the beginning of their careers who wear their business suits like a uniform. The business suit signifies rationality, potency and authority. By finding the chink in the armour that a suit can be, Maria Friberg analyses power and homes in on men’s vulnerability and insecurity, as well as on their playfulness and boyishness.
The exhibition “Boys are us” is the hitherto most comprehensive presentation of Maria Friberg’s work in Sweden, comprising photographs and videos from 1998 till 2008.
Until 25 May 2008
