Dorothée Nilsson Gallery (DE)

Dorothée Nilsson Gallery was founded in 2017 in Berlin, Germany. The gallery represents an international portfolio of artists and artists' estates. While the artists of the gallery practice in a vast range of mediums, their work is often based on photography. Experimental approaches regarding medium or engagement with societal issues play a core role in their work and are explored through a critical, aesthetic or poetic lens. Dorothée Nilsson Gallery presents a dynamic exhibition program while valuing long-term collaborations with the artists. Each year, five to six exhibitions take place in the gallery space at Potsdamer Str 65, in addition to artist talks and panel discussions. The gallery regularly takes part in several international art fairs.

Lotta Antonsson (SE)

Antonsson explores the limits of photography and experiments with different materials from her archive by complementing vintage photographs from fashion and erotic magazines with natural objects such as stones, corals, and shells. Her analog cuts and repetitions seize upon the allegorical potential of image fragments, freeing fashion, and erotic photography in an exploration into the gendered side of this clichéd history. Her oeuvre includes collages and installations that seek a formal and psychological engagement with gender history and relate to a spatial context in which photographs and objects are combined into an associative whole.

Lotta Antonsson (b. 1963, SE) lives and works in Berlin, Germany and Falkenberg, Sweden. She was educated at Konstfack, Stockholm (1989-1992), The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts (1992-1993) and The Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm (1995-1996). Antonsson belongs to a generation of Swedish artists who emerged in the early 1990s and whose work was inspired by postmodern art and theory. Antonsson addressed the vulnerability of young women, thereby sparking a new public debate about power and social gender, questioning the objectification of women with irony and self-distance while criticizing the male gaze.
