Galleri Format is delighted to start off our 2022 exhibition programme with A Cloud of Smoke a solo show by Malmö based artist Runo Lagomarsino.
Language, geography, and historiography are themes that Lagomarsino revisits in his artistic practice, using materials that often evoke memories or a relationship to something, only to ask us to reflect on the conditions enabling these connections. Lagomarsino’s work points towards the gaps and cracks in our explanation models highlighting language’s precarious foundation. With precise and poetic displacements, he constructs frictions, fractures of blind spots from where to tell other stories.
Lagomarsino was born in Lund in 1977 and lives and works in Malmö. Recent solo exhibitions have been held at Lunds konsthall (2021), Moderna Museet, Stockholm (2019), Dallas Museum of Art (2018), La Criée centre d’Art contemporaine, Rennes and Malmö Konsthall (Carla Zaccagnini) (both 2015).
