Bigert & Bergström

Skellefteå Art Gallery presents the Broken Greenhouse by the Swedish art duo Bigert & Bergström, whose new exhibition, The Broken Greenhouse, focuses on the destructive human impulse to control and tame nature by creating space for cultivation and cities. For this exhibition, the artists are showing new and older works that in different ways allude to the idea that nature created for humanity a perfect climate that is now broken. For almost thirty years, Mats Bigert and Lars Bergström's work has been driven by scientific and historical theories, often with clear reference to issues concerning the current climate crisis.
