Carling Dalenson – Vera Lutter “When Stones Were Blooming” 10:15 AM Friday, September 22, 2023 Carling Dalenson is thrilled to present “When Stones Were Blooming,” the debut exhibition featuring the works of renowned German artist and photographer, Vera Lutter. In this captivating showcase, Lutter takes us on a journey through ancient European sites, delving into the rich history of aged artifacts. Her exploration began at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2012, where she meticulously photographed fragmented sculptures from ancient Greek and Roman art. Moving from smaller objects to monumental architectural sites of ancient significance, Lutter’s quest centers on understanding why certain forms were chosen and the profound cultural and spiritual meanings embedded in those choices. Through her lens, she invites us to ponder what these artworks meant to the people of those times and how their minds were shaped by these visual and physical experiences. While the immediacy of the past eludes us, Lutter’s work captures the enduring wonder that informs her ongoing exploration of history through photography.

Olivia Pettersson Fleur, Atomic Snapshot 1:11 PM Monday, September 25, 2023 Introducing Olivia Pettersson Fleur’s second solo exhibition, “Atomic Snapshot.” Her artistry involves painting on paper, where brush strokes create captivating color gradients. These gradients are shredded into pieces and reassembled with a subtle shift, often featuring circular elements. Inspired by scientific concepts and influenced by Emanuel Swedenborg’s theories, Pettersson Fleur explores the abstract nature of energy and frequency. In “Atomic Snapshot,” vibrant lines contrast with clusters of circular shapes, creating intricate, vibrating structures on the canvas. Her work delves into quantum mechanics, where the wave-particle duality theory blurs boundaries between particles and waves. Olivia Pettersson Fleur’s art invites us to contemplate these elusive possibilities, connecting spirit with matter. A graduate of the Royal Institute of Art, Stockholm, and the Umeå Academy of Fine Arts, she has exhibited internationally and received prestigious awards and grants. Her art is featured in notable collections, including Public Art Agency Sweden and Region Stockholm.

Lovisa Ringborg, The Living Room 11:04 AM Monday, September 25, 2023 Announcing Lovisa Ringborg’s latest exhibition, “The Living Room,” at Cecilia Hillström Gallery. This captivating project blends photography and sculpture, featuring an interior theme with reddish-pink tones that unify the works. Through a unique interplay of daylight and infrared light in her photography, Ringborg captures both visible light and the presence of heat. Unlike her past nature-focused pieces, this exhibition explores the interior of an unadorned room. Small details within the room, such as an unmade bed, draped textiles, and warm, glowing lights, hint at life. However, as you delve deeper into each image, the room transforms from a safe space into a claustrophobic environment. The sculptural work showcases a sleeping boy on a bed, created with terracotta hues that resemble flesh. The sheets on the bed symbolize the shedding of skin, representing change and metamorphosis. This theme of transformation also appears in wooden sculptures of two pairs of hands, where one pair morphs into sharp claws upon closer inspection. Smaller still-life pieces complement the larger photographs, offering subtle hints of memory. Pressed dried flowers and bottles filled with warm water at various temperatures provide discreet references to the room and its history, resembling fragments of a memory. One photograph brings nature into the exhibition, portraying an untamed landscape with lupine flowers by the roadside. It evokes a hazy memory of a summer night, simultaneously inviting and nostalgic, yet also eerie and ghostly. Throughout Lovisa Ringborg’s work, a consistent tension prevails. Whether depicting an altered reality, a dreamlike state, or the depths of one’s subconscious, Ringborg’s art invites viewers to explore themes of seduction, tenderness, and the uncanny, all with an elusive quality that’s both intriguing and challenging.Ringborg, an MFA graduate from the School of Photography at Gothenburg University, has exhibited her works internationally and received numerous awards and scholarships. Her art is featured in prominent collections worldwide, including Moderna Museet, Hasselblad Foundation, and more.
