Stokholm, Sweden, 1966, lives and works there.
Klingberg studied magazine and newspaper design at RMI-Berghs, Stockholm, and sculpture at Konsfstack, University College of Arts, Crafts, Design, Stockholm. Numerous solo exhibitions of her work have been held across Europe, and in 2005 she received a five year working grant from the Swedish Visual Arts Fund.

In Brand New View Kilngberg has covered the windows of Moore College’s entrance in bright orange vinyl patterns that illuminate the interior of the gallery with vivid patterned light. The large elaborate designs are composed of smaller logos and brands found in supermarkets that have been reconfigured into geometric abstractions that recall Moorish patterns and the designs of Persian carpets and Eastern mandalas.

Je vous présente la dernière création de l’artiste suédoise Gunilla Klingberg baptisée « Wheel of Everyday Life ».
Ce mandala géant composé de logos de grandes marques est une installation commandée par la galerie Rice à Houston. Ce projet envahit littéralement le sol de la galerie et se prolonge sur l’extérieur comme une prolifération virale.

Шведская художница Gunilla Klingberg для своей последней работы под названием «Колесо повседневной жизни» (Wheel of Everyday Life) использовала логотипы известных брендов. Прямо на полу выставочного зала Гунилла изобразила логотипы таким образом, что они стали похожи на буддийскую мандалу.

La artista sueca Gunilla Klingberg usa marcas familiares que inundan nuestra vida en su obra Wheel of Everyday Life (Rueda de lo cotidiano). La instalación se encuentra en la Rice Galería universitaria de Houston, Texas. Ella utiliza logos y marcas como Shell, Kmart, y 7-Eleven y las acomoda en una forma repetitiva, circular, como un mandala. Klingberg explora el consumo de masas y se pregunta si es posible “hacer de lo mundano algo espiritual”.
