SHUBIGI RAO / PULP I–IV
Destruction of books, assaults on libraries, erasure of women’s voices, and loss of languages—in Shubigi Rao’s exhibition, we encounter histories of cultural destruction and the resistance that has emerged in its wake.
SWEDISH PICTURE BOOK OF THE YEAR
Each year, a jury selects the best Swedish picture book published over the past 12 months. The award is presented at Littfest. In conjunction with which Bildmuseet opens an exhibition of sketches and original illustrations from the winning book.
