A celebration of the representation, figuration, and classical antiquity in Mamma Anderssons newest paintings. "When I look at this collection of pictures, ... what strikes me first is the image-making capacity itself and the endless stream of images it brings forth and always has brought forth into the world. Karl Ove Knausgaard, Mamma Andersson: Sleepless The Swedish painter Mamma Andersson draws inspiration from a wide range of photographic source materials, art history, filmic imagery, theater sets, and period interiors, as well as the sparse topography of northern Sweden. The paintings and works on paper collected in this volume explore atmosphere and mood through representations of masks, statues, and figurines, which take on a dreamlike, mythical quality in stark silhouettes. While recalling classical genres of still life, landscape, and interiors, this body of work, painted in 2021 and 2022, blends our sense of the past, present, and future. A companion to the artists previous books A Storm Warning and The Lost Paradise, this limited-run publication features a new essay by Karl Ove Knausgaard. The text considers the history and evolution of the human desire to depict our surroundings, placing Anderssons doubled renderingspictures of pictureswithin a tradition of painting not from life but from representations of life.
