MANY TIMES BEFORE
Texts in Swedish (pdf)

Exhibition at Galleri Mors Mössa Gothenburg, Sweden 2008

Traces of exhibitors and visitors since 1990 documented with 30
signs in stainless steel, texts and 20 paintings (acrylic on canvas).
The signs pointed out traces left behind by artists through the years,
and named the artists responsible for these specific traces.
With the gallery owner’s help I went through the visual
documentation of almost 20 years of exhibitions, and the
traces were identified and catalogued. Accompanying thesigns
were a collection of texts telling the stories behind the traces.

The paintings depicted the most frequently occurring
signatures in the gallery’s archived guest books.
