Anna Camner: A Plague I Call a Heartbeat

Anna Camner’s paintings invite reflective contemplation. They are precise close-up studies of materials, textures and surfaces, but it is difficult to determine just what these materials are; natural, or fabricated, alive or dead. The paintings are usually small and to perceive their details, they must be seen up close in an intimate encounter with the artwork. With technical brilliance, Camner uses the possibilities of painting to create pictures that could hardly be achieved with a camera.

Camner (b. 1977) graduated from the Royal Institute of Art, Stockholm, in 2003. Her work has been exhibited internationally in solo shows in London and New York and recently in a group show in Mumbai, India. In conjunction with the award of the prestigious annual Beckers Art Award in 2017, her work was exhibited at Färgfabriken, Stockholm, Sweden.
This is Camner’s first exhibition at Galerie Forsblom.

Toni R. Toivonen: The Last Presence

Toivonen’s work stem from a physical process of decay where deceased animals like dogs, hares, cows and horses, are transformed into artworks. Toivonen places the animal onto a sheet of brass and when putting it to its final rest, the procedure becomes a burial. By time, the animals decompose into a nature morte, a still life, where they are captured in their last presence.

Toni R. Toivonen (b. 1987) graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki, 2016. He has been exhibited extensively in Finland as well as internationally in Berlin, Vienna, London, and New York. His works are included in public collections at the Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art, the Sara Hildén Museum of Art in Finland and at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Kraków, Poland. In 2019 Toivonen received a grant from the Greta and William Lehtinen Foundation.

Ann-Sofie Claesson: One Life

Ann-Sofie Claesson’s artistry is anchored in universal themes such as time, memory, identity and family. At Galerie Forsblom a new series of paintings is presented, based on black and white photographs that pays an homage to her grandmother. The surface of the paintings has a texture reminiscent of organic patterns. Fleeting moments and memories linger in Claesson’s works along with the transient nature of time and life.

Claesson (b. 1992) graduated from the University of the Arts Helsinki, 2018. She has exhibited in the studio at Galerie Forsblom in Helsinki and in group exhibitions including Liljevalchs, Stockholm, Borås Museum of Modern Art, Sweden and Amos Andersson’s Art Museum, Helsinki, Finland.

Wetterling Gallery is proud to present the exhibition ‘Joseph Cornell’s Holiday’ by Sir Peter Blake. The American artist Joseph Cornell (1903- 1972) has been a great inspiration for Peter Blake. Cornell is sometimes referred to as Americas first surrealist, working with shadow boxes in which he arranged fragments of found objects. He also made films and collages. Joseph Cornell lived a rather isolated life taking care of his mother and disabled brother, basically never leaving the New York City area.

In the exhibition ‘Joseph Cornell’s Holiday’, Peter Blake sends out Cornell on a travel through Europe. In a large number of paper collages Blake lets Cornell visit places he couldn’t travel to in his own life.

Halloween at Gröna Lund is back bringing a lot of fun and great times for all ages and lots of blood-soaking news.

Fewer seats, GREATER EXPERIENCE
New for this year that all tickets are date controlled, meaning you buy a ticket for a specific date. Another news for this year is that there are limited number of tickets with a maximum of 12,500 people for each opening day as the area this year is limited due to Gröna Lund’s redevelopment. This means that even you who have free entry (0-6 years and 65+ years) need to pre-book your ticket to enter the park. Allowing Gröna Lund also to take care and scare all their guests in the best way. And they promise that this year, the park experience will be more cool than ever!

ATTRACTIONS AND HOME
The entire amusement park with attractions is open, where the Lilla Området, the kiddies area is adapted for younger visitors with pumpkins, witches, ghosts and children’s performances every day. In the Greater Area, the more courageous visitors will be able, among other things, to take part in the haunted Ship that returns and more terrifying new rides.
