Event Details:














Ann Wolff: The Art of Living


Discover the brilliance of internationally acclaimed Swedish artist Ann Wolff in a new exhibition, Ann Wolff: The Art of Living, at the American Swedish Institute. Curated in partnership with the Ann Wolff Foundation and the artist herself, the exhibition showcases breathtaking artworks by Wolff cleverly displayed throughout the historic Turnblad Mansion. 

Wolff's work meets local artists Nancy Randall and Laurie Van Wieren, engaging in dialogue with one another within the historic Turnblad Mansion in this significant exhibition series, Ann Wolff: The Art of Living. 

With over five decades on the international scene, Wolff (b. 1937) has earned recognition as one of the world's foremost artists working with glass, known for her distinctive sculptural creations. Her deeply personal approach to her life-long artistry extends beyond glass to metal, concrete, drawing and photography exploring themes of identity, self-expression, and the art of living. 

From large glass and concrete sculptures to delicate nickel silver castings, this exhibition explores Wolff's multifaceted artistic evolution from the early 2000s to the present. This is the largest presentation of artworks by Wolff outside of Sweden, featuring works on loan from private collections, including the Minnesota based Cafesjian Art Trust.
