Mikael Olsson participate in the exhibition in 'Mutadis Mutandis – 24 pavilions'.

As an impromptu response to the cancellation of the Venice architecture biennial and the subsequent postponement of the upcoming art biennial, 'Mutadis Mutandis' showcases 24 proposals for future/imaginary pavilions free of any geopolitical, economic, physical, durational, or cosmic limitations.

Studio Giardini is – very suitably – situated in close proximity to the Giardini della Biennale in a residential neighborhood directly behind the oldest foreign pavilion inaugurated in 1907.

NEW BOOK AT STEIDL VERLAG



"The images of Mikael Olsson are held by the tension between visual faculties and visual conventions, the reality of perception and the reality of vision, of the concrete and the abstract." Péter Nádas

In on | auf the Swedish artist Mikael Olsson undertakes a photographic study of the Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron’s and the Chinese artist Ai Weiwei’s temporary pavilion at the Serpentine Gallery in London 2012.

By investigating the traces of their creative processes in their archives, and exploring the relation between their pavilion and its shifting contexts, Olsson creates visual narratives which uncover questions about displacement, perception, and space.

The book includes an essay by the Hungarian writer and photographer Péter Nádas entitled ’Loaned Landscapes, Borrowed Objects. The Real Space of the Image and the Representation of Space in Mikael Olsson’s Photography.’

STIL - RADIO SHOW



Conversation with Blenda Setterwall Klingert and Luca Guadagnino on national Swedish radio (Public service) program Stil.

Italy's most recognizable filmmaker today is director Luca Guadagnino, known for films such as Call Me By Your Name. His latest film Suspiria is a reinterpretation of the iconic Italian horror film of the same name. The film shows the Swedish artist and photographer Mikael Olsson in a role and his photographs from the recording have also become Japanese fashion designed by Jun Takahashi. We spoke to them and found out more about the process.

Sophia Loren - likes the style of glamour and good food
