Vernissage
Opening for Aboowe, this is for you by Ikram Abdulkadir during Stockholm Culture Night
During Stockholm Culture Night, we are holding an opening for the exhibition Aboowe, this is for you by Ikram Abdulkadir.
Welcome to the opening of the exhibition “Aboowe, this is for you” by Ikram Abdulkadir during Stockholm Culture Night.
Due to the Israeli embassy’s participation in Stockholm Culture Night, Ikram Abdulkadir has chosen not to participate in the artist talk during the opening.
We hope to be able to conduct the conversation in a context further ahead.
The exhibition is open 18-24 during the evening.
Introduction to the exhibition 19:00, 20:00, 21.00, 22:00. 23:00
Through Ikram Abdulkadir’s intimate and gentle portraits, we get to know a little brother. We get to be there when he is on the football field, with his relatives, or dreamingly standing and looking away. In the earlier works, it is the sisters who have taken their place. This time it is he who gets to shine and be highlighted in his own exhibition. The images create a sense of intimacy and presence and invite you into the family in Malmö.
Ikram Abdulkadir (b.1995) exhibited at Fotografiska in Stockholm and at the Fotofestivalen in Arles in 2023. Her photographs often depict family members and friends with whom she can identify; black, Muslim women living in Sweden. In her practice, the images become a work of memory and an ongoing writing of history.
