General guided viewing in Bigert & Bergström's exhibition The Broken Greenhouse.
Exhibition hall, Sara kulturhus, Skellefteå
Now it is once again time for Skellefteå art gallery to visit the exhibition hall at Sara Kulturhus. Welcome to a guided tour of the artist duo Bigert & Bergström's exhibition The Broken Greenhouse.
For nearly thirty years, the artists Mats Bigert and Lars Bergström have worked as a duo whose artistry is centrally anchored in natural science and historical theories, often with clear references to issues concerning society and the climate changes that are occurring.
In the borderland between man, nature, and technology, they create large-scale installations, sculptures, photographs, films, performances and geoengineering projects that give the viewer a visual experience but also invite active participation. Central to the exhibition The Broken Greenhouse is the problematization of the greenhouse as an Arcadian place and our human quest to control and tame nature by creating spaces for cultivation, vegetation and life.
