- Inhalt: Ola Pehrson : retrospective is the first monograph on the artist to be published. The book includes a range of essays, as well as documentation of his most important artworks, together providing valuable insight into Ola Pehrson's artistic legacy. Ola Pehrson's (1964-2006) public breakthrough came in the late nineties with the multi-media installation Yucca Invest Trading Plant, a humorous and multifaceted work dealing with the financial market. In his oeuvre we move between large-scale systems, such as the global economy and mass media, and the intimate sphere of the home. At the core we find a keen interest in human behaviour and what controls it, as well as a deep fascination for human perception. The suburban villa that was his childhood home appears in different guises throughout his body of work, like in the installation Birthday Party, a reconstruction of his mother's sixty-fifth birthday. His last work, Hunt for the Unabomber, garnered wide international acclaim when it was presented at the 2005 Istanbul Biennial
