Contemporary art gallery / Galleri för samtidskonst Galleri Magnus Karlsson was founded in 1990. In August 1997 the gallery moved to Stockholm.

The first 7 years the gallery was located in Västerås, a city 100 km west of Stockholm. It gained a reputation as one of the most interesting contemporary art galleries in Sweden. The focus of the gallery is to show the work of emerging and established contemporary artists from Sweden. The gallery has done international art fair such as Liste, Basel (1999, 2000 and 2001), Art Forum Berlin (2002) Frieze Art Fair, London (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012) and The Armory Show, New York (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012) to present those artists also internationally. The gallery also co-produces exhibitions and projects with museums and galleries. The gallery is located on the ground floor of The Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts, Fredsgatan 12, Stockholm. In the summer of 2011 Hellvi Kännungs, a project room on the island of Gotland, opened for the public. It will also be a place for artists to meet and work. http://www.youtube.com/user/GalleriMK

Galleri Magnus Karlsson startades 1990. Under de första 7 åren låg galleriet i Västerås, en stad 100 km väster om Stockholm. Det fick ett rykte som ett av de mest intressanta gallerierna för samtidskonst i Sverige. I augusti 1997 flyttade galleriet till Stockholm. Galleriet fokuserar på svensk samtidskonst och har deltagit på internationella konstmässor som Liste, Basel (1999, 2000 och 2001), Art Forum Berlin (2002) Frieze Art Fair, London (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 och 2012) och The Armory Show, New York (2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 och 2012) för att presentera sina konstnärer även internationellt. Galleriet samproducerar även utställningar och projekt med museer och andra gallerier. Galleriet ligger på bottenvåningen i Kungliga Svenska Konstakademien, Fredsgatan 12, Stockholm. Sommaren 2011 öppnades Hellvi Kännungs - ett projektrum på Gotland, för allmänheten. Det kommer även att fungera som en plats för konstnärer att mötas och arbeta.

We are excited to announce Sara-Vide Ericson’s solo exhibition ’Drift’ at Liljevalchs + Liljevalchs in Stockholm. The starting point of the exhibition was when Sara-Vide Ericson took part in an expedition to the Arctic Ocean aboard the icebreaker Oden in the autumn of 2025. It features a large selection of smaller paintings made during the challenging voyage, along with larger paintings completed in her studio in 2026.

”During the last few years, Sara-Vide Ericson has established herself as one of her generation’s most significant artists, exhibiting both in Sweden and internationally. In her figurative painting, personal experiences, mythical motifs and the sovereignty of nature are interwoven in intense and physical imagery. The practice emanates from a physical way of working, where presence, vulnerability and transformation are recurring themes. In ’Drift’, these explorations are deepened through an encounter with a landscape that both carries and dissolves the human being.”
(From the Press Release)

The exhibition ’Drift’ runs from November 13 2026–February 28, 2027 and is accompanied by a beautiful monograph published by Ocean Books. It features all paintings in the exhibition and an essay by Joanna Sandell Wright (curator and director of Liljevalchs) together with the artist’s journal from the days and nights on board.

Alejandro Sintura’s new paintings can be described as balancing between narrative and materiality. The group of works on view in the exhibition shows great variety, both in how they are painted and in the choice of subjects. Every addition to the painting’s surface is full of intention and an attempt at communication. Some works have heavy body paint, thick impasto over thick surfaces, and others are light, faint, thin where the raw colour of the canvas shines through.

The paintings are figurative but also fragmentary and, at times, almost merely hinted at. A narrative is perhaps more a sense of narrative. They depict not only a memory but also the inability to remember. A tender scene portrays not only closeness but also desperation and distance. Within the beautiful and serene lies a brooding eeriness. Each painting forms its own world, independent and self-contained, like in a collection of short stories. All works are equally important, regardless of size and content. Every painting act contains the potential of giving a soul to an object, and every object contains the potential of being given a soul.

Final days of Thomas Broomé’s exhibition ’False Idols’. The second room in the exhibition presents the light sculpture ’PhoneticBody’.

”Thomas Broomé’s PhoneticBody can be experienced both as an object and as spatiality. Here we encounter slowly pulsating volumes of light together with a gentle voice. The work consists of a cube of light that produces poetry, creating lyrics about everyday objects and things found in our homes, such as dining tables, cloths and lamps. Words, rhythms and phonemes take form through different shapes and colors. Light materializes language, giving it a temporary body and making it part of the room.”
–From an exhibition essay by Lotten Wiklund
