Mamma Andersson
Apr 23, 2026 – Jun 27, 2026

Mamma Andersson's works on paper (Œuvres sur papier) in a Paris exhibition.
Why go
The exhibition debuts a new series of six etchings titled *Porte clé* (2026) created at Atelier Tazé-Lipreau-Araï, walking distance from the gallery, alongside prints and drawings that reveal Andersson's sustained engagement with printmaking as a generative compositional practice since the late 1990s.
What to expect
A focused presentation of works on paper across multiple techniques—etching, lithography, woodcut—and unique drawings. The new etchings feature furniture, doll-like figurines, deer heads, and mysterious landscapes that evoke private associations and pay homage to Chinese woodblock prints and Northern European painters like Hammershøi and Carl Fredr
