Collectors Agenda

In the Studio Abiona Esther Ojo, Vienna

Austrian-Nigerian artist Abiona Esther Ojo combines autobiographical themes with photographic, textile and conceptual processes in her work. In her artistic practice, she explores themes such as identity, inherited memory and intuitive knowledge.

In the Studio Tschabalala Self, New York

By combining paint, recycled materials, collage, and textiles, Tschabalala Self creates a world that is both sensuous and political. In her powerful images of black bodies, mostly women, she centres pleasure, relaxation, and self-possession, while working against the histories of racism and sexism that have shaped how these bodies are seen.

In the Studio Soufiane Ababri, Paris

Leaving the past behind is not a choice for the artist Soufiane Ababri. After moving from Morocco to France at 18, he began creating a personal visual archive of queer life in the Arab world and of gay immigrants in the West — one that weaves together autobiography, political awareness, and homoeroticism.

Collector Stories Kristian Roland, Aarhus

What started out as an interest of his father’s, turned out to impact the life of young art collector Kristian Roland in a surprising way. Art became a focal point in his life, which the growing art collection in his home bears witness to. For Kristian, artworks are carriers of stories, the best of which challenge the spectator and serve as gateways for unexplored territory.

Marjatta Tapiola, Sysmä
Visiting Marjatta Tapiola, one of the main protagonists of Finnish Neo-Expressionism, in her mansion in Sysmä, a two-hour drive from Helsinki, takes you back in time. From her studio in a 400-year-old threshing house, far removed from the outside world, Marjatta creates her monumental paintings that recount life's cruelty and carnal indulgences and, more recently, increasingly take their inspiration from biblical themes.
