This Must Be The Place

June 8, 2010

Taking an alternative route in Swedish contemporary art This Must Be The Place is an interesting addition to Swedish emerging art scene. The art project is shaped as a book including 42 Swedish artists in various media: painting, illustration, photography and more.
The essential goal for the book is to highlight a talented group of young Swedish artists that were selected from the 2500 submissions founders Carl-Johan Wirsell, Katarina Löthman Kaliff, Olle Halvars Franzén and Ola Möller received since the initial stage of the project in 2008, and to design a platform for creators in visual art to facilitate ways of showing their art to a broader audience.
To fulfill the goal of making art more accessible This Must Be The Place is available online, as an e-book. If you want to get your hands on the real copy head over to Adlibris and Konst-ig
Some favorites from this talented bunch include:

Painter, Alexander Falldén

Photographer, Otto Lindstam

Painter, Joanna Ageborg
