Exhibition Catalogue No. 4

Poul Gernes / Sidekick / Cosima Von Bonin
Produced by Artipelag, 2013
105 pages, illustrated, paperback. Languages: Swedish, English,
ISBN 978-91-980428-3-2
Contents
The art of Danish artist Poul Gernes (1925-1996) has long been an integral part of the Danish art scene, but Gernes was also somewhat of an outsider that preferred to go his own way. Cosima von Bonin (born 1962 in Kenya) is one of contemporary art’s most acclaimed artists. In conjunction with the exhibition Bruder Poul sticht in See at Hamburger Kunstverein 2001, Cosima von Bonin began to engage in a dialogue with the artistry of Poul Gernes. This dialogue deepened over the years, becoming a rich discussion wherein it was not always clear who was the lead person and who was the sidekick. In Artipelag’s exhibition Sidekick, the works of Poul Gernes and Cosima von Bonin will be shown together for the first time in Sweden.
The richly illustrated catalogue is designed by Matilda Plöjel. Authors: Bo Nilsson, Magnus Jensner, Laura Cottingham, Anders Krüger.

Candida Höfer is one of the foremost representatives of contemporary photographers and the exhibition at Artipelag is her first in Sweden. Including almost 100 works, it is an overview spanning 4 decades from earlier works such as Liverpool to Rodin’s Borgarna i Calais and later works from Neues Museum Berlin. In addition to rich photographic material, the book also includes text written by Professor of Psychology Friedrich Wolfram Heubach as well as a preface by Artistic Director Bo Nilsson.
”The exhibition is an invitation to follow an exercise of self-examination: I attempt to identify – across time, across sets of motives and across the presentation forms used – common denominators of the visual memory that is guiding me.”
