​
The people portrayed in Ulf Lundin’s series "From Darkness" have been enclosed by themselves in total darkness for half an hour before the artist pulled the trigger on his camera. This he did from an adjoining room without seeing the sitter. The portrayed had no notion when the flash would lighten up their faces.

The BF Artist Film Festival VII programme has been selected from over 500 applicants and curated to showcase current technical approaches and thematic concerns explored by moving image artists. Domesticity and banality, voyeurism and sexuality, navigating the Internet and our relationships within the urban environment, are all themes that have occurred naturally through the selection process.

PART I

You are welcome to a conversation in Ulf Lundin’s exhibition The Monument at the gallery. The Monument presents a photgraphic project based upon the area around Högdalstoppen, south of Stockholm, where Ulf Lundin has spent much time in recent years. The photographs depict a specific place but are also loaded with an underlying narrative dealing with dreams and reality. In the conversation artist Ulf Lundin, the writer Stefan Lindberg and the journalist Per Wirtén looks at the place from their different perspectives.

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.

Please contact the gallery should you like to view the videowork.

In the video 5-9 we’re following the everyday doings in a office building in the Stockholm area. The piece is shot secretly from the outside during dark hours. Lundin has gathered material during several weeks. That material is put together digitally so that the result is 27 minutes long unbroken dolly shot. The result is a condensed reality where time and space has been manipulated. Lundin is not really interested in the office workers that are portrayed in 5-9. They represent all of us and our gaze is turned towards ourselves. How do we choose to live our lives?

Temporal Anxiety comprises a media installation of four works examining the passage, perception and fluidity of time through natural and man-made cycles; from literal stop-motion condensing reality to extended shots questioning the nature of linear temporality.

AIVA 2014 Finspång.AIVA 2014, International Video Art Festival will take place in Finspång, Sweden May 28-31 and the main purpose of the festival is the free presentation, promotion and development of international video art and to create a new, alternative, peripheral meeting point for emerging and established video and media artists from all over the world. We hope to bring Sweden clearer on the map, both nationally and internationally, as a vivid scene of video art.

To look at the world around us, perhaps through a window or from a beautiful vantage point is something we all have enjoyed.
