Exhibition Catalogue No. 9

Artipelag’s No Man Is an Island – Artistic Excursions in Stockholm’s Archipelago
Produced by Artipelag, 2014
237 pages, illustrated. Languages: Swedish, English.
ISBN 978-91-980428-7-0
Contents
Few places are as copiously written about, celebrated in song, or “prettily painted” as Stockholm’s archipelago. But nowadays, representations of the archipelago are increasingly seen as more of a nostalgic tourist cliché, wherein the notion of archipelago art has become a dubious category. Aided by artwork from the end of the 1800s up until today, the exhibition No Man is an Island attempts to problematize the image of the archipelago based on concepts such as class, gender and identity.
The richly illustrated catalogue is designed by Greger Ulf Nilsson. Text written by Bo Nilsson.
Price: 100 SEK

Exhibition Catalogue No. 4

Poul Gernes / Sidekick / Cosima Von Bonin
Produced by Artipelag, 2013
105 pages, illustrated, paperback. Languages: Swedish, English,
ISBN 978-91-980428-3-2
Contents
The art of Danish artist Poul Gernes (1925-1996) has long been an integral part of the Danish art scene, but Gernes was also somewhat of an outsider that preferred to go his own way. Cosima von Bonin (born 1962 in Kenya) is one of contemporary art’s most acclaimed artists. In conjunction with the exhibition Bruder Poul sticht in See at Hamburger Kunstverein 2001, Cosima von Bonin began to engage in a dialogue with the artistry of Poul Gernes. This dialogue deepened over the years, becoming a rich discussion wherein it was not always clear who was the lead person and who was the sidekick. In Artipelag’s exhibition Sidekick, the works of Poul Gernes and Cosima von Bonin will be shown together for the first time in Sweden.
The richly illustrated catalogue is designed by Matilda Plöjel. Authors: Bo Nilsson, Magnus Jensner, Laura Cottingham, Anders Krüger.

”The exhibition is an invitation to follow an exercise of self-examination: I attempt to identify – across time, across sets of motives and across the presentation forms used – common denominators of the visual memory that is guiding me.”
