Date: November 11, 2010
Location: Magasin 3, Stockholm
Language: Swedish

What do I look like? What am I like? Who am I? Faces are used to comunicate, be recognized, or be sought after. In the portraits of others be mirror ourselves. Art history has traditionally been most interested in the question of who has been portrayed. In chapter I of the exhibition Thrice upon a time that question is secondary. In this part of the exhibition curator Elisabeth Millqvist has extended the definition and focuses on portraits as contemporary subject matter.

Curator Elisabeth Millqvist gives a special viewing of the exhibition together with invited guests; Karin Sidén who has a PhD in art history and is a curator at Nationalmuseum, Stockholm as well as the artists Gunnel Wåhlstrand, Matts Leiderstam and Cecilia Edefalk who participate in the current exhibition at Magasin 3.

Limited number of participants. The tour is included in the entrance fee.
