The Corona Collection will be placed at government agencies around the country \u2013 from the Swedish Public Employment Service, the Social Insurance Agency and the Tax Agency to court houses, universities and institutional residential homes for young people. The art will meet citizens at their places of work in many different contexts and under various conditions. What does it mean to encounter art at one\u2019s workplace every day? How does art at a university contribute to the study environment and the education? What happens when people meet art in their everyday lives? This exhibition seeks to raise thoughts about the significance of encountering art in the spaces we share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collection includes works of art by artists of different generations and diverse backgrounds from the entire country. Nature, and especially trees, play a big role. The artists often deal with nature that is endangered and exposed, but also with nature as a transformative and inspiring force and as a place of rest and recharging. Many of the works deal with identity and self-image, memory and forgetfulness \u00ad\u2013 fragments of memories that are brought to life and merge with other experiences. In many cases, the artists use materials and techniques that require a great deal of time and consideration, from charcoal and graphite drawings to carefully executed archival work. It is usually about a genuine love of the chosen material.<br><br>The exhibition is presented in collaboration with the Public Art Agency Sweden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Participating artists:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Karlsson Rixon<br>Afrang Nordl\u00f6f Malekian &amp; Nour Helou<br>Alexander Gustaf-Thompson<br>Andreas Glad<br>Anna\u202fSjons\u202fNilsson<br>Ayan Farah<br>Behjat\u202fOmer\u202fAbdulla<br>Carola Grahn<br>Charlotte Walentin<br>Christian Andersson<br>Daniel Hoflund<br>Danilo Stankovic<br>Elisabeth Moritz<br>Elizabeth Thun<br>Ella Tillema<br>Emm Berring<br>Emma Nilsson<br>Erik Holmstedt<br>Eva Klasson<br>Fathia Mohidin<br>Fredrik Nielsen<br>Fredrik Strid<br>Gerd Aurell<br>Gustaf Broms<br>Helmtrud\u202fNystr\u00f6m<br>Hendrik Zeitler<br>Henrik Haukeland<br>Isabel Theselius<br>Johanna Gustafsson F\u00fcrst<br>Juri Markkula<br>J\u00f6ran \u00d6sterman<br>Kristina M\u00fcntzing<br>Lap-See\u202fLam<br>Lena Ylip\u00e4\u00e4<br>Lisa Wallert<br>Lotta Antonsson<br>Martin Jacobson<br>Micael Norberg<br>Moa Israelsson<br>Norrakollektivet (Tomas \u00d6rn, Anja \u00d6rn &amp;Fanny Carinasdotter)<br>Rasmus\u202fNossbring<br>Rikard F\u00e5hraeus<br>Rina Eide\u202fL\u00f8vaasen<br>Sam Hultin<br>Samaneh\u202fReyhani<br>Samira Englund<br>Shiva Anoushirvani<br>Signe Johannessen<br>Sigrid\u202fHolmwood<br>Silje Figenschou Thoresen<br>Tarik Kiswanson<br>Tom\u202fBogaard<br>Ulla Wiggen<br>Victoria Verseau<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more about&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/publicartagencysweden.com\/the-corona-collection-public-art-agency-swedens-acquisitions-2021\/\">The Corona Collection at Public Art Agency Sweden<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Skissernas Museum presents a selection of the more than 500 works of art by 350 artists that Public Art Agency Sweden acquired in 2021 in support of the Swedish art world during the pandemic. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6523,"template":"","lagonda_exhibition_cat":[],"lagonda_exhibition_tag":[],"class_list":["post-6247","lagonda_exhibition","type-lagonda_exhibition","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"page_gallery":6898,"exhibition_subtitle":"","exhibition_start_date":"2022-10-13 00:00:00","exhibition_end_date":"2023-02-12 00:00:00","exhibition_gallery":null},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_exhibition\/6247","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_exhibition"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/lagonda_exhibition"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"acf:attachment":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6898"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6247"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"lagonda_exhibition_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_exhibition_cat?post=6247"},{"taxonomy":"lagonda_exhibition_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skissernasmuseum.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/lagonda_exhibition_tag?post=6247"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
