Summer 2019 Art Exhibitions in Stockholm: From Artipelag to Fotografiska

Stockholm's art scene this summer features a diverse array of exhibitions across multiple venues. At Artipelag, the exhibition 'Sculpture in Nature' runs until November 3, 2019, showcasing works like Per Kirkeby's bronze 'Monument' and Berlinde De Bruyckere's 'Rodt', a dead deer on a stone slab. The museum's architecture by Johan Nyrén integrates pine-clad walls and a two-billion-year-old rock in the café. A major retrospective 'Fornasetti Inside Out Outside In' (until January 26) presents Piero Fornasetti's complete works, including his collaboration with Gio Ponti and the iconic 'Tema e Variazioni' plates featuring Lina Cavalieri. Annika Liljedahl's 'Insekt Insikt' (until September 1) fills the Blackbox with insect sculptures and audio by Lo Kristenson. At Moderna Museet, Arthur Jafa's monographic exhibition 'A series of utterly improbable, yet extraordinary renditions' (until September 8) includes collaborations with Ming Smith, Frida Orupabo, and Missylanyus, exploring Black aesthetics and the white gaze. Liljevalchs presents Anders Petersen's 'Stockholm' (until September 1), a photographic documentation of the city from 2015 to 2018. Fotografiska hosts three shows: James Nachtwey's 'Memoria' (until September 15) covering war and suffering; Mandy Barker's 'Sea of Artifacts' (until August 25) highlighting plastic pollution; and Scarlett Hooft's 'Graafland Vanishing Traces' (until September 1) featuring surreal performances in remote landscapes.
