Martin Ålund

The starting point of this book is the painting suite Chemistry by the Swedish artist Martin Ålund. The suite was exhibited for the first time in its entirety in 2015, at Konstnärshuset (The Artist's House) in Stockholm, and curated by Celia Prado. Chemistry deals with, among other things, the chemistry of the painting itself and its components, the chemistry that emerges between the different works, the personal chemistry in encounters among individuals, the inner chemistry of sensibilty and reflection, and the chemistry that emerges through the work process. The book features texts by Anders Olofsson, Celia Prado, Jakob Staberg and Martin Ålund.
