"Hjertén's expressive canvases receive long-overdue scholarly attention, reframing her as a central figure in Swedish early modernism."
This major retrospective reclaims Sigrid Hjertén's place in European modernism through over sixty paintings and drawings from her Matisse-influenced Paris period to her later Swedish production. Curators address the gendered marginalization that long sidelined her work, presenting new archival research on her studio practice, her relationship with Isaac Grünewald, and her psychiatric institutionalization in the 1930s.
