August Said So!: Guided Tour

In 2026, the Swedish Institute will present a guided tour around a unique work: an exhibition by Cecilia Edefalk, conceived under the influence of the renowned writer August Strindberg. The event highlights a previously unpublished conversation between the artist and writer and critic Daniel Birnbaum, moderated by Sara Arrhenius, curator of the exhibition. This meeting offers a privileged insight into the artist’s creative process and her relationship to Strindberg's legacy. The exhibition explores complex themes related to perception and representation. Accompanied by a performance by Cecilia Edefalk at the Grand Palais, this tour is a rare opportunity to observe a contemporary work in a rich historical and artistic context. The tour is in English and constitutes an immersion into the world of contemporary art.
