The major exhibition for the spring and summer highlights the architect Sigurd Lewerentz (1885\u20131975) and some of his most famous buildings. As far back as 1968, the museum presented an exhibition about Lewerentz\u2019s work \u2013 the first institution in Sweden to do so. Since then, interest in Lewerentz has constantly grown, not least internationally. Today, he is considered to be one of the leading architects of the 1900s, and his work continues to inspire new generations. One example is the architect and artist Petra Gipp, who has created a new sculptural work for the exhibition, an architectural exploration of Lewerentz\u2019s world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sigurd Lewerentz received commissions in Sk\u00e5ne early in his career. The projects presented in the exhibition \u2013 the Eastern Cemetery with chapel and flower kiosk in Malm\u00f6 (1916\u20131975), Malm\u00f6 City Theatre (1927\u20131944) and St Peter\u2019s Church in Klippan (1962\u20131966) \u2013 span a period of almost 60 years, a period of shifting architectural ideals and considerable changes in society. Through drawings, models and objects, as well as archive material, photographs and film clips, we can find out about Lewerentz\u2019s ideas concerning architecture and cemeteries. Towards the end of the 1950s, Lewerentz lived in Skan\u00f6r. In his last years his home and studio, known as the Black Box, were in Lund. Enthusiastic young architects in Sk\u00e5ne collaborated with Lewerentz at the time, including Bernt Nyberg, who also accompanied him to the construction sites in Klippan and Malm\u00f6. The exhibition features a film by Sven Blume comprising excerpts from Nyberg\u2019s material, while Per Kristiansens photographs provide a contemporary view of Lewerentz\u2019s architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During the spring and summer, a series of conversations, thematic viewings, family workshops and student collaborations will offer insights into the field of architecture and Lewerentz\u2019 rich output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
