The Institute for Reproducibility
Press Print Paint


The Institute for Reproducibility is an artistic research project initiated by Lina Bjerneld and Jenny Olsson with support of artistic research and development funding at the Royal Institute of Art. The project started in 2020 and in the spring of 2023 the workshop Print Press Paint was carried out as a first step to investigate concepts and methods within the concept of reproducibility. The workshop resulted in this publication.

The aim of the Institute for Reproducibility is to create more knowledge about processes related to reproducibility and how they behave both as methods and as results. The research has the potential to uncover new and different aspects of artistic thinking and examine whether shifts have occurred in our perception of the art object and artistic practice. It is about to develop and make visible choices, habits and repetitions that often belong to the tacit knowledge of the practice.
Contributors and participants:
Gurli Kruber, Kayo Mpoyi, Kristina Nenzén, Ossian Söderqvist, Robin Rydenhov, Ester Fleckner, Annu Vertanen, Asier Mendizabal

BILD No. 2 Winter


The seasons came and went—summer, fall, winter—and then spring arrived once again, bringing a sense of renewal. Just before Christmas, Helena Lund Ek, Astrid Kajsa Nylander, and I gathered in my studio in Örnsberg, where we wrote a manifesto about painting. We left it unfinished, just lying around.

During the summer, I reached out to Henrik Eriksson to ask his thoughts on the season and his recent work. He responded with a text and some documantation of his paintings. He mentioned he'd been reflecting on Alfred Bohman’s work and thought it would fit well. I asked him to invite Alfred to join us.

In the fall, I came across a painter from Gothenburg, Karin Ström, who captured sunsets in the shape of an "i"—a simple yet striking symbol. Though her work extends beyond this, those particular paintings felt raw and vivid, reaching beyond the canvas towards life itself.

And so, all the seasons came together in this way, and perhaps that's how it should be. Maybe that’s just the way things are.

BILD is a zine dedicated to artistic exploration and practice related to painting.
It serves as an open collaborative platform for work in need of an open, yet to be defined, space to be formulated.
Published as a series, BILD aims to encourage and inspire a dialogue about painting within the local community, while also creating opportunities for alternative exhibition contexts and meaningful conversations.
