With a labyrinthine exhibition design by Klas Ruin of Stockholm architecture firm Spridd, Bonniers Konsthall's Against Time group show includes film, photography, text, and installation works by 20 international artists, who address time and history with diverse storytelling methods. Irish artist Gerard Byrne challenges preconceived ideas of the past in his arresting three-channel video installation, 1984 and Beyond, a contemporary re-enactment of a 1963 Playboy magazine interview with 12 famous sci-fi authors wittily speculating about life in 1984. Stage III, German artist Ulla von Brandenburg's wall painting, depicts silhouetted figures in a 1908 rehearsal of Strindberg's play The Father. Swedish artist Per Wizén's imposing reworking of Paolo Uccello's 1470 painting The Hunt in the Forest maintains the original painting's composition, but excludes the figures, evoking the calm before the hunt.
