Eline Mugaas

Adressen til Eline sitt atelier er Hovinveien 1, 0576 Oslo
Atelieret er åpent lørdag 23. april

Eline Mugaas is an artist based in Oslo, Norway working primarily with images and installation. Her background includes photography, collage, sculpture and publishing.

Mugaas has worked closely over several years with the sculptor Siri Aurdal, publishing an artist book with Primary Information based on Aurdals sketches and notes. In 2016 an exhibition was held at Kunstnerens Hus, featuring Aurdal’s reconstructed sculptures from1969 and Mugaas’ series of photographs Scale Model featuring Aurdals moquettes. She continues to curate and publish as a vital part of her practice.

For more than a decade Mugaas and artist Elise Storsveen have been publishing the fanzine ALBUM. A facsimile of the first 10 issues was published with Primary Information in 2014. This series of zines offers a sophisticated meta-narrative on the human body, sexuality, and the social lives of images. In 2013 Mugaas/Storsveen co-curated with Kunsthall Oslo the show Hold Stenhårdt fast på greia di – art and feminism in Norway 1969 to 1989. This show sought to make reinstall a generation of woman artist to the canon of Norwegian art history.

Recent activity includes shows at National Museum for Art, Design and Architecture, Skissernas Museum in Lund, CCVA Harvard University, Munch Museum on the Move and Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo.
Mugaas was the recipient of the Lorch Schieve art award, 2019, at Trondheim Kunstmuseum.
Upcoming projects include solo show at Galleri Riis
