With a sense of reorientation, the reader is invited to trace a long development and encounter an artistry that is at once spiritual and playful - resisting any easy classification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The sculpture \u003cem\u003eLooking for Alice Fine\u003c\/em\u003e is a portrait of the questing artist. Or the artist who wants to become one with his medium and escape into his painting. I view artistic work and meditation as two sides of the same coin. They are two different methods for connecting with your unconscious, two ways to start thinking. There’s a state you can reach where your thoughts wander by themselves, without any deliberate guidance.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eInterview with Fredrik Wretman by Eva-Lotta Holm Flach, published in the book\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art \u0026 Theory Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53902558101845,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/9918\/9967\/files\/fredrik-wretman-looking-for-alice-fine_022d5f48-229f-42cf-9fc9-48696173e481.jpg?v=1779885763","url":"https:\/\/artandtheory.org\/products\/fredrik-wretman-looking-for-alice-fine","provider":"Art \u0026 Theory Publishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
