HELI HILTUNEN 

Half Remembered Light

Galleri Andersson/Sandström is proud to present our second solo exhibition with one of Finland’s most established contemporary artists, Heli Hiltunen (b. 1960).

Hiltunen moves in-between the boundary of photography and painting. In this exhibition, Hiltunen will take the viewer on a journey through melancholy landscapes, fragmented narratives, and dream-like states in what has become her signature style.

WILHELM MUNDT

BOYS AND GIRLS AND BLACK HOLES

In 1989, German artist Wilhelm Mundt completed his sculpture Stein 001. The work marks the start of a chronological series of abstract, lump-shaped sculptures that soon came to be titled trashstones. These trashstones has characterised Mundt’s artistry ever since and he has already completed more than 600 of them. The title Boys and Girls and Black Holes is an allusion to the expectations and pre-conceptions that may arise when one encounters a colour, a structure or a shape. While the black bronze surface absorbs almost every light, the aluminum ones are reflecting their surroundings. There will also be a selected range of photographic works presented, The Black Holes. They show various leftover shadows of lumps, each one showing the contour of a Trashstone. 

- Regardless of the muriad of possible associations, the aim is to create something that does not pretend to be anything other than it is, Mundt clarifies.
