Louisiana print with the work, The Long Goodbye (2015) , by the Swedish painter, Karin Mamma Andersson (b. 1962), which Louisiana presented in 2021 with the exhibition, Humdrum Days. Mamma Andersson stands as one of the most important painters of her generation and Louisiana presented her for the first time in large detail in Denmark. The work is printed on extra strong, uncoated paper.
Mamma Andersson has many landscapes and still lifes among her works - but certainly also figures. Often with an immediacy aura, less accessible to our projected notions of what the characters' stories might be. A figure can also be semi-geometric sculptures, an empty piece of clothing, or what ultimately remains of the figure, the skeleton, as here in The Long Goodbye (2015) .
Mamma Andersson builds her paintings on the basis of art historical references and found photographs, films and historical clippings - often black and white, which gives her greater freedom in choosing colors, as she tells. It is painting upon painting, pictures upon pictures, when Andersson's works open up into a universe of suggestive and emotionally charged narratives in expansive landscapes, interiors and portraits. But, it will never be a pure copy. The originality lies in a new translation, where Mamma Anderssons turns and plays with the images in paint, charcoal, chalk - so a new story emerges.
