Andréhn-Schiptjenko (SE/FR)

Since its inception in 1991, Andréhn-Schiptjenko has been committed to working on an international arena and to the long-term representation of emerging and established contemporary artists from all over the world working with painting, sculpture, photography, film and digital media as well as installation-based and site-specific work. The gallery is today located in Stockholm and, as a way of expanding the gallery’s international scope and to accommodate for collaborative and multidisciplinary projects, a second space opened in Paris in 2019, allowing for a closer relationship with the gallery’s international network.

Curated for
CHART

For CHART 2025, Andréhn-Schiptjenko brings together two prominent Swedish artists: Kristina Jansson and Theresa Traore Dahlberg. Jansson’s lush and emblematic painting meets Traore Dahlberg’s vibrant and complex sculptural works. From different perspectives, their work examines global issues and both artists are concerned with the possibilities held within their respective materials.

Theresa Traore Dahlberg (SE)

In Theresa Traore Dahlberg’s work, the material in itself is often the point of departure, both as a physical material and as a container of histories, ideas and notions. She draws on her personal experience of being anchored in two divergent sociopolitical realities: Sweden and Burkina Faso.

Theresa Traore Dahlberg (b. 1983, SE) resides and works in Sweden. She graduated in 2017 with an MFA from The Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm. Institutional solo exhibitions include Kalmar Konstmuseum and Musée National du Burkina Faso. Her work is represented in Ståhl Collection, TiA Collection, and Uppsala Konstmuseum.

Kristina Jansson (SE)

Kristina Jansson’s grand and ambiguous paintings often deal with the emblematic relationship between her motifs and various human undercurrents and desires. At first glance, her paintings appear to refer to something illustrative, however, the subversive and sensual properties of the material create a barrier between the evident and the unknown.

Kristina Jansson (b. 1967, SE) resides and works in Sweden. She is professor of Art at The Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm, from where she graduated in 2001. Her works are today found in several museum collections. In 2022, Värmlands Museum presented a large survey exhibition on her work.
