Read the review by Dan Backman in Svenska Dagbladet (in Swedish)

We invited film director Peter Grönlund for a talk with artist Anna Bjerger about her exhibition Blanket for a Sail at the galleri (27.3–1.5 2021). The conversation is in Swedish (27:20 min) and was recorded on March 25, 2021.

NATURE — Home & Workplace

Anna Bjerger takes part in a group exhibition at The Nuuk Art Museum, Greenland.

From press release:
In Greenland, nature plays a special role, both as our home, our pantry and as the place where many find their peace. That's why Nuuk Art Museum has worked to get the exhibition NATURE // Home & Workplace for Nuuk. The exhibition is made up of artists who in small and huge large paintings, sculptures and installations revolve around nature. There are 12 artists from the Nordic countries, including Inuk Silis Høegh from Nuuk.

From press release:
With energetic brushstrokes and slow-paced precision Swedish artist Anna Bjerger conjures up a familiar and sensory visual universe harbouring undertones of longing and loneliness in her largest solo exhibition in Denmark to date at Gammel Holtegaard Art Centre.
A woman’s inscrutable gaze, a nonchalant hand holding a lit cigarette, a landscape of dark, wandering figures, a cucumber plant. The figurative motifs of Swedish artist Anna Bjerger are apparently simple yet enigmatic. Her paintings are supremely mastered, low-key, and intensely sensual.

Galleri Magnus Karlsson moves to London this autumn!

After nearly 20 years at art fairs in Europe and the USA we are trying out new ways of presenting our artists internationally. During 2018 we have taken a pause from international art fairs to explore the possibilities with pop-up exhibitions.

This summer we will present the first exhibition at the gallery’s co-owned hotel Le Manoir in Banyuls-sur-Mer. This little gem is located in French Catalonia where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean Sea. Works by our gallery artists are shown in the public areas and bedrooms throughout the hotel. In a solo presentation, Anna Bjerger will be presenting new paintings and works on paper in the hotel dining room, library and bar. The exhibition is a way to further connect with the local audience and explore potential regional collaborations.

Robert Armstrong & Anna Bjerger

Painters have a complex relationship with their source material. While it provides them with vital information and can often stimulate certain illuminating reactions within them, it can also act as a self-imposed limit, which, once introduced, must be escaped from. Slips and Glimpses, an exhibition of new work by Anna Bjerger and Robert Armstrong delivers moments of both vivid immersion and profound escape.

The point of departure in Bjerger’s paintings is found, anonymous photographs. She works from seemingly redundant images. Images whose shelf life is long passed. Photographs from outdated travel guides, technical handbooks, knitting magazines. She hoards this source material and mines it for her subjects.

Louisiana presents a cornucopia of international contemporary and classic works of art acquired over the past three years – almost one hundred works within painting, photography, sculpture and installation.

At Louisiana the opportunity for in-depth insight into the art of the present must be featured. The museum therefore upholds ambitious goals for the acquisition of contemporary art in order to create surprising and eye-opening perspectives on our time.

We are pleased to present Divining, Anna Bjerger’s first solo exhibition of paintings at Galleri Magnus Karlsson.

Press Release:

We are pleased to present new works by Mamma Andersson, Anna Bjerger, Jens Fänge and Charlie Roberts in our stand (#C28) at Frieze New York.

New Opening Days

In the Project Room we will present recent paintings by Anna Bjerger.
The paintings of Anna Bjerger capture fleeting moments. We, the viewer, are involved in the paintings as covert onlookers. A tense relationship occurs between the actions represented in the painting and our inclusion as a spectator.
