It&#8217;s a project she&#8217;s been doing periodically in recent years, to paint a little picture a day. Sometimes it&#8217;s blue skies and sometimes grey weather. One day a muddy gravel road plays the main role, another day a sunny kitchen is in focus.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;How do I choose what to paint? my eyes just gets stuck on something. It goes by itself, I don&#8217;t think too much and that&#8217;s just as it should be.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Anna says that the project with the daily paintings helps her to see life and to appreciate it. A recurring theme in Anna&#8217;s watercolours is the forest. It&#8217;s the real forest we&#8217;re talking about. The one that is not only wonderful but also dark and inhospitable. But Anna also sees the light, which finds its way down through the treetops, and catches it.<\/p>\n<p>Anna is an award-winning watercolorist. She was awarded the Nordic Watercolour Society&#8217;s Winsor and Newton Prize in 2024. She exhibited at Liljevalch&#8217;s Spring Salon in 2023.<\/p>\n<h3>Opening Saturday May, 4 at 12-16<\/h3>\n<p><strong>The exhibition will is running until\u00a0 May, 19 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Welcome!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>March, 29\u00a0 &#8211; April, 18\u00a0 Jubilee exhibition &#8211; RiverCity Gallery 10 years!<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This year the gallery celebrates 10 years\u00a0 with a Jubilee Exhibition.<\/p>\n<h3>Opening on Good Friday, March 29 at 11-15<br \/>\nOpen Easter Eve and Easter Sunday at 11-15<\/h3>\n<p>We have shown many artists and exhibitions over the years and for this exhibition we have invited many of the artists who have been part of this fantastic journey and contributed with their art to interesting exhibitions.<\/p>\n<p><em>Arjuna Geir Aasehaug, Susanna Arwin, Zehra Ay, Lennart Berggren, Hans O Bergman, Maria C Bernhardsson, Steve Bettman, Johanna B\u00f6rjesson, Ulrica Elmberg, Dalibor Eminefendic, Niklas och Jessica F\u00e4nnick, Charlotta Gavelin, Torbj\u00f6rn Hahne, Barbro Hall\u00e9n, Anders Hammarstr\u00f6m, Lars Hansson Lahn, Tarik Hardaga, Anna Israelsson, Tomas Lacke, Magnus K Larson, Ingrid Leonardsson, Tobias Liljeborg, Emilia Linderholm, Malin Mossberg, Yusuke Nagano, Susanne Norberg, Beata Carlberg, Lennart Samor, Azita Sassanian, \u00c5sa S\u00f6dergren, David Tedfeldt, Anna T\u00f6rnqvist, Richard Vakil, Louise Villa, Mia Wiking, Eva Wir\u00e9n, Lena \u00d6ritsland<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>The exhibition ends with a Finissage on April 18 at 15-19.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Welcome!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>March, 2 &#8211; 17\u00a0 Maria C Bernhardsson and Ulrica Elmberg<\/h3>\n<p>We welcome the artists <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rivercitygallery.se\/en\/artist\/maria-c-bernhardsson\/\">Maria C Bernhardsson<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rivercitygallery.se\/en\/artist\/ulrica-elmberg\/\">Ulrica Elmberg<\/a> back to us.

With the purse as a weapon if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>For Susanna Arwin, the expression has always changed between different techniques and imagery, depending on what is to be said through her.

There is a common thread through her art, even though over the years she has switched between different techniques.\u00a0She has always been fascinated by houses. It is noticeable in her art, which opens the door to a magical dream world that flows with color, form and imagination.\u00a0She has wonderful color combinations in both her imaginative watercolors and her more abstract acrylic paintings. In the acrylic paintings, there are often imaginative little creatures that appear and surprise the viewer, which makes the pictures exciting.<\/p>\n<p>We have also followed Ulrica Elmberg for a long time, but this is the first time will exhibit her ceramics at RiverCity Gallery.\u00a0Ulrica works with stoneware clay and she creates both art objects and utility objects. For the most part, she rolls, builds, thumbs, sculptes and curls, but also keeps the rotation alive. In addition to working with her own creation, Ulrica also holds some courses.<br \/>\n\u201dClay is a great joy for me and means calm, focus, form. With my own production of art and utility objects, I want to inspire others to work with clay. \u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The exhibtion runs until Nov, 22.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Warm welcome!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Oct 23 &#8211; Nov 1 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rivercitygallery.se\/en\/artist\/mats-jonasson\/\">Mats Jonasson<\/a><br \/>\n(glass)<\/h3>\n<p>We have the pleasure of showing a glass exhibition with the glass artist Mats Jonasson from M\u00e5ler\u00e5s.<\/p>\n<h3>Preview during &#8220;Culture Night&#8221; on Friday October 23 at 15.30 &#8211; 19.30<\/h3>\n<h3>Vernissage Saturday October 24 at 12 &#8211; 16<\/h3>\n<p>Early on, Mats Jonasson&#8217;s drawing talent was noticed and he began working as an engraving apprentice at the glassworks as early as 1959.

But also in shapes, surfaces and colour. To be changing but at the same time being secure. One surface against another, a shape that turns through an incident just as movements in life affect each other. While we are closer than ever to those physically far from us, it is also possible to distance ourselves from the people nearest to us. Through our different touch points we can follow the every day lives of our far away friends without having to be an active part in them.\u00a0<\/em><em>At the same time this can make us estrange ourselves from those closest to us but enable socialising at a distance.\u00a0<\/em><em>Where a look meets someone\u2019s back, a greeting meets a nod and an intimate secret is stored in the cloud. A longing for intimacy can in thoughts and actions lead us closer to each other.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Lennart Samor portrays his reflections in a series of paintings where bold colours meet passive areas. Meandering movements through events and depths without any apparent logic. Motifs from people\u2019s lives give substance to the telling of fragments from every day life like a collage.\u00a0Through an uncommon spontaneous basketball game or a common social media update, Lennart Samor tells a narrative that passively comments on his life and every day events.\u00a0A motif that shows a quick social media post (in an internet feed) which will be forgotten within an hour, will be retained for all time as a painting.\u00a0A selfie painted on canvas turns into a portrait of an era. A memory from a certain place, a meadow in the forest or a stretch of summer-warm, pine-scented beach.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Summer exhibitions with guest exhibitors<\/h3>\n<p>During the summer, the gallery is visited by various artists during shorter exhibitions.<br \/>\nThe artists themselves are present throughout the exhibitions.<br \/>\nBelow you can see the entire program.<\/p>\n<h3>June 27 &#8211; July 2 Damir Gutic<\/h3>\n<h3>July 3 -9 Margareta Alvthin<\/h3>\n<h3>July 18-23 Gunnel Nirving and Thomaz Grahl<\/h3>\n<h3>July 25 &#8211; 30 Mia \u00c4leg\u00e5rd<\/h3>\n<h3>Aug 1 &#8211; 6 Ewa-Britt Andersson and Katja Laakso<\/h3>\n<h3>Aug 7 &#8211; 16 Dalibor Eminefendic<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>April 18 &#8211; June 14 \u00a0 SPRING EXHIBITION<\/h3>\n<p><strong>A mixed spring exhibition where you can see art by a variety of artists.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Due to the prevailing situation with Covid -19, the number of people staying in the gallery at the same time will be limited.

Two highly skilled and experienced artists we are proud to show in a joint exhibition.<\/p>\n<p>Hans-G\u00f6ran Broman&#8217;s painting moves in a boarder zone between the abstract and the figurative. The figures are indicated and it triggers the mind on the viewer. Interesting color and form combinations in a superb technical performance. His interest in painting was first raised at the drawing lessons at school, and he has been painting ever since. Nowadays in a studio at Rydal Museum.<\/p>\n<p>Torbj\u00f6rn Hahne studied ceramics at Konstfack in Stockholm, and has then been educated in both glass and enamel. Inspiration fetches Torbj\u00f6rn from nature, trips and hikes. The impressions are collected and then expressed in amazing experimental colors and shapes that grow through, for example, raku burning. It will be a kind of painting with the help of the fire and the oxides. His creation takes place in many stages with sketches, paintings, photographs and screens, both in own studio at Hind\u00e5s and at KKV in Gothenburg.<\/p>\n<h3>Vernissage Saturday April, 14 at 12-16<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Welcome!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>March, 3 &#8211; 18 \u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rivercitygallery.se\/en\/artist\/lena-oritsland\/\">Lena \u00d6ritsland<\/a> &#8220;Cranes, rust and sky&#8221; (photo)<\/h3>\n<p>Photographer Lena \u00d6ritsland exhibits pictures from the Gothenburg Harbour.<\/p>\n<p>Lena has been walking with a camera on her shoulder since she was 17, and when she began to approach her 30s, she wanted to take the opportunity to develop her artistic side, she sought and entered the University of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm.

She documented cranes, docks, ladders, raindrops, early morning till late in the evening and in all kinds of weather.

Gladly with as many colors as possible in combination at the same time. Contrasts, strong colors-bright pastels, dark-luminous, angular, skewed, dreamy, naive, layer on layer.
