"In the Age of Abberation: Drawings, Sketches and Paintings by Vera Nilsson"
2001-10-13 until 2002-01-16
Modern Museum
Stockholm, , SE

Vera Nilsson (1888 - 1979) is one of the most acclaimed Swedish 20th century artists. The few exhibitions that took place during her lifetime attracted a large and enthusiastic public. She is best known as a painter, but Vera Nilsson herself often included sketches and drawings in her exhibitions.

The rich volume of sketches in the present exhibition intensifies the picture of a long and many-facetted artistic life. When the sketch is focused upon, what is emphasised is the process rather than the finished product - and it is a grinding process, directed by an indefatigable will and a strong dose of self-criticism.
