Fia Backström & Andreas Eriksson for Sweden in the Nordic Pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2011

The partnership between the three nations sharing the Nordic Pavilion in Venice – Sweden, Finland and Norway – will try a new concept for the next three biennials. The previous requirement that all three countries should be represented by artists will be set aside to enable solo exhibitions. Sweden, which is responsible for the Nordic Pavilion in 2011, will thus be presenting two separate projects.

The artists Fia Backström and Andreas Eriksson are currently producing new works for the Biennale. Once these projects have reached a more mature stage, they will be presented in a new press release.

Rafael Soriano at University of Miami Lowe Art Museum

Rafael Soriano: Other Worlds Within, a Sixty Year Retrospective
University of Miami Lowe Art Museum
January 29 – March 27, 2011
Cuban-born painter Rafael Soriano is one of the major Latin American artists of his generation. Soriano broke with regional and folkloric themes which once dominated Cuban art in the mid-twenties. Soriano first mastered geometric abstraction as a style in the 1950’s, but by the late 1960’s had defined his signature approach to painting. His work embodies a style best described as ‘Oneiric Luminism’ combining a purely abstract form of light, form space and shadow with an interest in poetic and metaphysical impulses.
