The Swedish artist couple Mamma Andersson (born 1962) and Jockum Nordstrom (born 1963) have been at the forefront of contemporary figurative painting since the late 1980s. Updating Vuillard for a post- Hitchcock age, Andersson paints beguilingly eerie untenanted interiors and landscapes. Nordstrom's detailed collages, paintings and drawings occupy a more folkloric realm peopled by historical and contemporary characters enacting sexual and social roles across broad narrative panoramas. Who Is Sleeping on My Pillow showcases Andersson and Nordstrom's work from the late 1980s to the present day in over 260 full-colour plates. Alongside these, it also includes family snapshots and source materials, texts by Paolo Colombo and Anders Kruger, a poem by Stig Claesson and an interview with Nordstrom by Marcel Dzama.
