Today we are terribly excited to bring you an actually well timed conversation, with the wonderful Jonas Liveröd. It’s been a while coming, but it fits perfectly, because already on this Friday, April 20th, he has a solo show opening at the great Steinsland Berliner Gallery in Stockholm. So as awesome as the conversation we are about to play for you is, it’s always better to...
Read MoreWhen you talk process with an artist, many similarities between practices begin to pop up over time, but there are also those occasions where you hear about more independent ways of working and thinking.

The closure of these...
Read MoreWe are joined today by artist extraordinaire Malin Gabriella Norden, who was here in town for the CHART Art Fair, because the homies over at Steinsland Berliner gallery were showing some of her works.

Read MoreDisplacement is the title of the show today, and the Swedish artist Runo Lagomarsino is our distinguished guest. The name comes of course from our talk, and it relates to something dear to the heart, to home, and to something important in art. His story and family history are very interesting, and they are very much reflected in his...
Read MoreToday’s guest is perhaps the kindest man in the art world, Bo Christian Larsson. He’s a magician of art, he works with his hands and his heart, and he’s a pleasure to talk to.
