Current Exhibitions
Tori Wrånes
2 March – 25 August 2019
Hybrid forms and mutations, trolls singing and chanting, treadmills covered with dough, and bean bags, suspended from the ceiling, that have collided head-on with abstract painting. This spring, the meteoric Norwegian artist Tori Wrånes features at the Gothenburg Museum of Art in her first solo exhibition at a museum in Sweden.
The World around You: Contemporary Art from the Collection
17 April–22 September 2019
Art can be beautiful, seductive and moving, provocative and emotional. It can make us ponder over our ingrained conceptions and see the world around us differently. In this exhibition, art of the 1970s meets the art of our time. It comprises around forty works that relate to their time in different ways – embracing or criticizing it, challenging it and making its presence known, or by turning away from it.
