…and other new acquisitions
The major autumn exhibition is a selection of the hundreds of acquisitions added to the museum’s collection in recent years. The sketches provide exciting insights into the artists’ work processes and how ideas emerge and take shape.
Fredrik Strid
Making Nature
Skissernas Museum will present a solo exhibition by Fredrik Strid in the spring and summer of 2024. The starting point for the exhibition Making Nature is the process-based sculpture project Alla fåglar i Sverige (All Birds of Sweden). The project, which the artist has been working on since 2018, will be shown here in its entirety for the first time.
