Figure in a Landscape is a painting by Francis Bacon that interprets a photograph of his lover, Eric Hall, dozing on a seat in Hyde Park, London. The artist depicts a disfigured, abstracted, partly over-painted man, lying across a park bench. With a blue sky and flowers drained of color in a murky, somber landscape, it seems, forebodingly, to be at once both day and night. Painted during World War 2, the work’s banal title belies the currents of violence churning within the frame.

Participating artists:

Lina Bjerneld
Anna Engver
Dick Hedlund

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.
