Welcome to Lars Lerin's pictorial world, created from water and pigment. This summer, Liljevalchs will display hundreds of paintings from Lerin's 2002-2018 period. The rugged landscape of Lofoten or the ruins of Syria, a pillar-like birch forest or lines of files on archive shelves - Lerin reincarnates powerful visual impressions via his inimitable technique. In recent years Lars Lerin has cemented his position as one of Sweden's most loved artists. People queue for hours to see his exhibitions and the television and radio programmes he participates in attract millions of viewers. We feel that we know him; his openness gives voice to our own shyness. Lerin, however, is not only a very popular and folksy guy from Värmland, he is a passionate, obsessed and serious artist. Widely regarded as the premier watercolourist of the Nordic region, he also works with graphic art and photography as well as text. Exhibition: Liljevalchs konsthall, Stockholm, Sweden (18.05.-09.09.2018).
