Summary
Annee Olofsson's large, profound and often eerie photographs, video works and sculptures deal with the complexities of family relationships and power balance. Time and again, Olofsson uses her own body and her personal history as instruments in her work. Bodies become symbols and narratives not just of our inscrutability but also of our human limitations. In Olofsson's imagery, people are heavily constrained in a compact darkness, and the human presence within it has the power to instill life and death in equal measure. This Is Annee Olofsson' is the artist's most comprehensive monograph to date, providing a visual journey through her body of work. It shows the great breadth of Olofsson's practice, with essays by Ruth Noack, Alice Hutchison, Aneta Szy'ak, Estelle af Malmborg, and Milovan Farronato providing extra depth. This Is Annee Olofsson' is comprised of 128 images of artworks mixed with embedded layers of photographs from the artist's family photo album. This suggestive composition of the material blurs the lines between work and portrait, art and life. Using the format, font, and layout of an album cover, the book is designed to emphasize Olofsson's great interest in music, especially vinyl records. The work featured on the cover of the book, "The Shadow of Jacqueline," is based on the controversial album cover of 'A Virgin Killer' by the German band Scorpions from 1976.
