The city of Malmö has commissioned Charlotte Gyllenhammar to construct a large public installation in Hyllie. Hyllie is the name of the new city centre currently being constructed in south Malmö. The expansion aims to make Hyllie a place of interest for the entire region of Öresund. Gyllenhammar’s installation is expected to be completed in spring 2014. Please visit this news page for future updates on this project.
November 15, 2012 Charlotte Gyllenhammar was awarded the Prince Eugen Medal for outstanding artistic achievement. The medal was awarded by His Majesty the king of Sweden Carl XVI Gustaf.
June 3–November 27, 2011 Glasstress was a unique collaboration pairing some of the most interesting names in contemporary art and design with master artisans of Venetian glass. Gyllenhammar's contribution to the exhibition was an installation utilizing glass, sculpture, and video. The Glasstressexhibition was an official part of the 54th Venice Biennale of Art. Curated by Peter Noever, Lidewij Edelkoort, and Demetrio Paparoni.
Art critic, essayist, and exhibition curator Demetrio Paparoni on Glasstress 2011:
”The theme of this year’s exhibition is the complex relationship that ties art, design and architecture together in an age thought to have moved beyond modernism. Comparing the opinions of various curators, Glasstress addresses this issue through glass sculptures specially made by major artists on the contemporary scene and through objects and sculptures made by designers, whose research was influenced by the formal aspect of the use of the object.”
Among the exhibiting artists were Fred Wilson, Tony Cragg, Tony Oursler, and architect Zaha Hadid. The exhibition was held at the Palazzo Franchetti / Istituto Veneto Di Scienze Lettere Ed Arti situated on the Canal Grande.

Gyllenhammar's exhibition was comprised of her acclaimed photographic series entitled Hang which first premiered at Paris Photo in 2006, as well as her sculpture entitled In Waiting.
