Anna-Karin Rasmusson | 'Den första färgen'⁠

Last few days to experience Anna-Karin Rasmusson's exhibition 'Den första färgen'⁠. The gallery is open today Wednesday 11:00–18:00 and tomorrow Thursday 11:00–14:00.⁠

⁠Rasmusson’s new exhibition marks a shift in her practice, placing faith in the image within a chaotic world. Throughout art history, the sacred image has functioned both as a reflection and as a window—an image that requires no explanation and offers no definitive answers. In Rasmusson’s poetic new videos, narration has almost disappeared, giving way to the image itself—to a painting unperturbed by time. In these works, painting becomes a process of moving colour between different “rooms,” from the subconscious mind to the physical act of creating an image.⁠

Cecilia Hillström Gallery is pleased to announce the representation of artist duo Bigert & Bergström.⁠

After 40 years of collaboration, Bigert & Bergström are best known for their large-scale installations and performances. Their practice often operates at the intersection of art, science, and social issues, with a particular focus on climate, technology, and our relationship with nature. In their projects, they combine humor, seriousness, and poetic strategies to highlight new perspectives on contemporary global challenges.⁠

Mats Bigert, born in 1965, and Lars Bergström, born in 1962, have collaborated since 1986. They studied at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm from 1986 to 1990. The duo has carried out numerous exhibitions and public projects, both in Sweden and internationally. Recent solo projects include Broken Greenhouse – Embodied Climate Futures, Lund Botanical Garden (2025); Tipping Point, Djurgården, Stockholm (2022); Hurricane Party, Norrtälje Art Hall (2022); and CO₂ Lock-In, Stockholm School of Economics (2020). Broken Greenhouse will be presented at Bergianska Trädgården outside Stockholm in collaboration with Accelerator in autumn 2026.⁠

The acclaimed social sculpture Solar Egg (2017) has been exhibited and toured in Sweden and internationally since its first installation in Kiruna.⁠

In 2025, Bigert & Bergström received the Art for the Globe Award, one of Sweden’s most prestigious cultural prizes.⁠

Anna-Karin Rasmusson | 'Den första färgen'⁠

The gallery is open today Saturday 12:00 – 16:00. Welcome!⁠

In Anna-Karin Rasmusson’s video works, painting is central. Everyday tasks are often performed repetitively within scenographies constructed as collages of painted cardboard boxes and boards. Her work explores human interaction, both physical and emotional. The masked characters in her videos—played by herself—engage in somewhat clumsy attempts to support, comfort, and reach out to one another. More broadly, Rasmusson’s expressive, painterly imagery highlights complex feelings of inadequacy, disorientation, and tenderness.⁠

Anna-Karin Rasmusson | 'Den första färgen'⁠

The psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung claimed that colours are the mother tongue of the subconscious—they speak directly to our emotions and to the non-verbal mind. The red liquid in Rasmusson’s work is connected not only to the subconscious but also to the human body; the colour of life—Den första färgen. Circulating within us, blood leaves impressions and stains in a variety of nuances.⁠
