The Swedish artist couple Mamma Andersson and Jockum Nordstrom have been at the forefront of contemporary figurative art since the late 1980s.

Mamma Andersson
In addition to personal life experiences, the Swedish artist Mamma Andersson draws on a number of other sources for her paintings, including northern landscape painting of the 19th and 20th century, interiors from forensic investigations and scenes from theatre brochures.The shift from meticulous attention to detail to gestural and abstract work lends the paintings an uncannily suggestive power. Thus, the portrayal of an everyday walk becomes a family drama, a children's room is revealed as a place of loneliness and destruction. The artist is concerned at all times with life in its entirety: a reflection of the contemporary human condition.Published on the occasion of the exhibition Mamma Andersson: Dog Days at Kunstmuseen Krefeld, Museum Haus Esters, 23 October - 5 February 2011.English and German text.

Her psychologically-charged paintings have an eerie sense of familiarity, as collaged dreamscapes cluttered with common imagery and accumulated biblio-ephemera.

The paintings and works on paper collected in this volume explore atmosphere and mood through representat...
Mamma Andersson: A Storm Warning
This collection of Mamma Andersson’s latest paintings spotlights the beauty and mystery of nature and the erasure of time "What Mamma Andersson does in some of these pictures is on the one hand depict the illusions, the one thing which is another thing—masks, theater, statues, paintings—and on the other portray that which is only itself, potted plants, tree trunks, trees, landscapes. Everything is motionless, these rooms are located out of time." —Karl Ove Knausgaard, Mamma Andersson: A Storm Warning In a series of oneiric paintings inspired by interiors and the landscape of her childhood, the Swedish painter Mamma Andersson muses on the line between reality and illusion. She introdu...
