Graduation Show
Master of Fine Arts

Konstakademien
Since 1784, the Royal Institute of Art’s graduation shows have been shown at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts [Konstakademien] in Stockholm. This year the exhibition celebrates 240 years. The very first graduation exhibition at the Royal Institute of Art marked the starting point for art exhibitions in Sweden, open to the public.
The graduation exhibitions constitute an important documentation of the development of art in Sweden, and every year we look forward to exhibiting the artists of the future – our students – in the Academy’s premises.

ABSOLUT CAPITALISM
Soni Sagan
A procession of animist nihilism, a vision quest for sovereignty. Performed throughout the precious halls of The Royal Academy of Fine Arts, in the land that taught the world how to speak capitalism in its absolute form.
((the supreme idea in which all other ideas participate, the subject object relation))
