Maria C Bernhardsson and Ulrica Elmberg is coming back
19 February, 2024We welcome the artists Maria C Bernhardsson and Ulrica Elmberg back to us. In the exhibition, they will show paintings and ceramics.
“For our second joint exhibition at RiverCity Gallery, we have once again worked on the basis of some common themes. Then both of us have created works in our own studios based on the same inspiration. Not until we put up the exhibition the day before the opening do we get to see what the other has created! New for this time is that we made a call among our followers on social media where we asked for suggestions on an image that we could interpret and create works from. The image we chose and the finished works will be shown in the exhibition!” Maria & Ulrica
Opening Saturday, March, 2 at 12-16

Arjuna Geir Aasehaug in a new exhibition
29 January, 2024We are pleased to welcome the artist Arjuna Geir Aasehaug back with a new solo exhibition namned “Enigma”.
“My paintings have a dreamy and enigmatic expression, I think of my pictures as wordless poems. It turns out solitary animals, such as a horse or a deer in a mysterious landscape; a forest or a lake, often partially hidden in fog. Maybe you see the outline of a small town or a house, or a mountain.The floating spherical shapes, and the moon or other mystical lights symbolize the ephemeral moment and eternity of the cosmic enigma.” Arjuna Geir Aasehaug
Opening Saturday, February 3 at 12-16
The exhibition is running until February, 18 2024.

27 November, 2023Vernissage Saturday December, 2 at 12-16
Åsa Södergren with the exhibition “Habitat”
24 October, 2023We welcome the artist Åsa Södergren back to us and this time with a solo exhibition.
In her exhibition, she will show paintings, collages and three-dimensional objects.
“I gave myself a whole year to dive into the paint. I had reached the end of the road in mine painting and needed to do a reboot. From the figurative I moved into the abstract, and rummaged around.
How difficult it was! And rewarding!
And it is from that process that my current work comes. I found one language and a theme that touches me, or rather is there, deep down. It can take different expressions, both figurative and non-figurative, in different techniques and material and both two- and three-dimensional. It is both a pleasure and a compulsion to be there/here, but above all it is one voyage of discovery. Like a truffle pig I bark and root, like a geologist I knock stones and bury me. I wash gold, and find stories.”
Vernissage Saturday November, 11 at 12-16
On the opening day at 12:30 and 14:30 Åsa Södergren talks about her artistry.
The exhibition is shown until on November 26, 2023.
Warm welcome!
Lennart Samor is back with a new solo exhibition!
15 September, 2023We are happy to once again welcome Lennart Samor to Gothenburg and RiverCity Gallery.
In the exhibition “Melanrum” he shows paintings around his theme – DISTANCE / MOVEMENT / CLOSENESS, which he has worked on since his last exhibition with us in 2020. Now he shows new paintings where changes and movements are more in the visual. He breaks up the surfaces more now, at the same time the images become more realistic and he approaches the subjects and portrays them with greater realism. The focus on urban environments, how we travel and encounter new places, has also been highlighted in the motifs in recent times. It’s about depicting the present and the space between places.
Vernissage Saturday September, 23 at 12-16
The opening day at 12.30 and 14.30 Lennart Samor talks about the exhibition and his ways to paint.
The exhibition is shown until October 8, 2023.
Warm welcome!
