    Exploring the boundaries between private and public, between inner organizations and outer limitations From the publisher: Skissernas Museum presents a solo exhibition with Charlotte Gyllenhammar's sculpture, photography and film work. Gyllenhammar's work explores the boundary between private and public, often with issues related to identity and vulnerability and the conditions for artistic creation. A central work in the exhibition is the film Cast, in which a woman is violently cast by having plaster thrown on her. In the end, she is covered in plaster and turned into a sculpture. In another room, an installation shows a sculpture of a woman and the mould in which it is cast. Out, Giant stands outside in The Sculpture Park. It is a five meter tall sculpture of a child wearing overalls, protected from storms but with limited mobility and field of vision. Charlotte Gyllenhammar was born 1963 in Gothenburg. She is educated at The Royal College of Art in London and The Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm. She was appointed professor at Malmö Art Academy in 1995. Gyllenhammar's breakthrough on the Swedish art scene came with the work Die for You (Dö för dig), an oak hung upside down on Drottninggatan in Stockholm, 1993. She is represented in many collections and has created several works for public space, including Meteorite in Lund (2017), & child (2016) and Mother (2014) in Malmö, Memorial – Raoul Wallenberg (2007) in Gothenburg and Under (2006) in Stockholm. --- Swedish: I samband med Charlotte Gyllenhammars utställning kastad/cast ger Skissernas Museum ut en rikt illustrerad bok med samma titel. Helt nya verk som inte har publicerats tidigare visas tillsammans med äldre verk och skisser. I boken finns texter av Charlotte Gyllenhammar, Mikael van Reis, Saul Anton och förord av Patrick Amsellem. Titeln på Gyllenhammars utställning och bok leker med mångtydigheten i ordet kasta, ett fornnordiskt ord från vilket engelskans cast stammar. Engelskans cast, kan betyda både kasta och gjuta. Ordets många betydelser beskriver Gyllenhammars konstnärskap, en undersökning av vad det innebär att vara människa, utslungad i en verklighet som ofta är brutal. Sedan Dö för dig (1993), ett av Gyllenhammars tidigaste verk, har hon kastat om perspektiven. Den upp och nedvända eken som hon tillfälligt hängde över Drottninggatan i Stockholm förkroppsligade utsattheten även hos det kraftfullaste av träd. I kastad/cast fortsätter Gyllenhammar att kasta om perspektiven för att undersöka villkoren för den mänskliga tillvaron och den konstnärliga skapandeprocessen.
