Indoor/Outdoor at the Athenaeum and San Diego Art Institute

The exhibition Indoor/Outdoor is the outgrowth of an international friendship between artists from Sweden and Southern California. How interior and exterior spaces in our two countries are perceived and then addressed in visual terms resulted in a vibrant pair of exhibitions held in San Diego, California, in June 2019, at the Athenaeum Art Center and the San Diego Art Institute.

Traditional and contemporary print production techniques used by the Swedish artists of Krogen Amerika combine beautifully with the varied and wide-ranging visual art methods used by members of Feminist Image Group, based in San Diego, California. In addition to the exhibitions, activities included a print workshop hosted by the visiting Swedish artists, and participation in a Midsomer Festival, an important Swedish tradition honoring the goddesses of fertility.

A catalog of the exhibit is available on Amazon
