Who was Dick Bengtsson? A conversation

As part of this spring’s major exhibition What No One Wants to See, dedicated to the enigmatic Dick Bengtsson, art critic and curator Daniel Birnbaum joins acclaimed artist Cecilia Edefalk for a conversation about one of Sweden’s most mythologised artists.

Who was he, really? What drove him? And how is his life reflected in the mysterious nature of his art? Often described as “an artist’s artist”, Bengtsson has long intrigued and unsettled audiences, leaving behind a legacy that continues to provoke questions and reflection.

Join them at Sven-Harrys Art Museum to get closer to the artist behind the myth.
