Ink-wash on paper, 73 1/4 x 53 1/2 in. (186 x 136 cm)

Opening August 27, we will be showing new work by Swedish artist Gunnel Wåhlstrand. Born in 1974, Wåhlstrand graduated from the Royal Academy of Art in 2003 with a break-through exhibition. Her second show at Andréhn-Schiptjenko will be an installation of realistic depictions of photographs, some of them very large scale. Wåhlstrand works in ink-wash, a time-consuming and precise technique she has come to master to perfection. Her motives are images from her family-album and the psychological power of her paintings is as striking as their impeccable execution.

ARTIST NEWS [MISC] Upcoming Shows
As always our artists are very active. To keep track of what they will be up to this winter/spring check out our newsletter.

MIKA ROTTENBERG [NEW ARTIST]
		We are pleased to announce that Mika Rottenberg is now represented by Andréhn-Schiptjenko. Working with drawings, photos and video installations Rottenberg has established her own unique, narrative approach, in which action often is compressed into layers of illogical activity. Rottenberg was recently exhibited in a groupshow at Andréhn-Schiptjenko and currently has a major soloexhibition at La Maison Rouge in Paris (until May 3). Recent groupshows include The Whitney Biennial 2008, Serpentine Gallery, London (2006). In 2006 she became the first recipient of the Cartier Award. Based in New York, Mika Rotteberg was born in Argentina in 1976, and raised in Israel.
