Happily Ever After

Julia Bjoernberg, Nina Bjoerk, Anna Hohansson, Kirse Junge-stevnsborg

Happily Ever After is a richly illustrated exhibition catalogue. Featuring newly written essays by the author Nina Bjoerk and curators Julia Bjoernberg and Anna Johansson, as well as presentations of the works and the artists.

Happily Ever After brings together artists and artist collectives whose practices explore what happens to us as individuals and collectives in a time cast in a haze of neoliberal optimization of the self, economic and political stakes in our emotions, and an increasing contempt for weakness. Through a range of artistic expression, topics such as mindfulness, welfare state profits, the tech industry, and social media are addressed. Together, the works point to how our mode of experiencing and expressing feelings is in flux and how these changes in turn affect how we see ourselves, each other, and society. Happily Ever After invites reflection on how emotions can open up futures by emphasizing the importance of resistance in the form of authenticity and community, and how we choose to act in relation to each other. The book is published in collaboration with Malmoe Konstmuseum.
