A major figure on the art scene in Sweden ever since the 1970s, the world of images she uses are instantly fascinating whether it be mixed media on canvas or photography. The bright red contrasting the color black, a sublime and subversive vocabulary of images characterized by desire, corruption, dreams and shadowy landscapes. The aim of the book is to document her extensive oeuvre from the 1970s right up to her most recent paintings from 2004 in both words and pictures. Essays by Lars O. Ericsson, Jan-Erik Lundström and John Peter Nilsson approach Maya’s work from different angles, offering readers a comprehensive view. Her work is very up-to-date and has a sense of sophistication.

Andy Pape, born in California in 1955, came to Denmark at the age of fifteen. With his chamber opera The Great Houdini, Pape had an unusual musical breakthrough in 1988. His catalogue as a composer includes instrumental theatre compositions as well as orchestral and chamber music with a fondness for distinctive instrument combinations and frequent use of percussion. This opera was conceived after Pape was captivated by the sound of two women’s voices together, Maria Stenz and Edith Guillaume. Although they were trained in seperate traditions (classical opera and the chanson/cabaret tradition), he thought they sounded extraordinarily good together.

In the 1990s and thereafter Annika von Hausswolff became established as one of the leading figures in Swedish and Scandinavian contemporary art. Many of her photographic works have already become classics. She is one of the Swedish artists who has received most notice internationally in recent years and she has represented Sweden at several major exhibitions including the Venice Biennial in 1999. She belongs to a generation of young, women artists who have used photographic images conceptually with a clear gender perspective and a critically analytical approach. The exhibition comprises almost 50 works and this makes it one of the larger shows of her work to be presented in recent years.
