Monica Sjöö: Den stora kosmiska modern
through September 1, 2024
at Moderna Museet, Ola Billgrens plats 2–4, Malmö, Sweden

Moderna Museet writes: ‘Throughout her practice, the artist, activist, writer and eco-feminist Monica Sjöö (1938–2005) fought an uncompromising battle for freedom from all forms of oppression. The exhibition “Monica Sjöö: The Great Cosmic Mother” is the first retrospective of Sjöö’s extensive corpus, where art, politics and spirituality are inseparable.’

The exhibition ”Monica Sjöö: Den stora kosmiska modern” (Monica Sjoo – the great cosmic mother) collects for the first time Sjöö’s extensive life’s work where art, politics and spirituality remained inseparable. Sydsvenskan (newspaper) writes: “The images are phenomenal as feminist statements. No hesitation, no determination – the brushstrokes are definite and strong”.
