Guerilla Art - The Roundabout Dog at Ropsten

This Roundabout Dog has been scaring the drivers at the Ropsten roundabout for some time now. His pal, they were two for some time, has disapperad. I wonder where. Probably he went to look for some nicer company ...

Robert Rauschenberg - at Moderna Muséet

Rauschenbergs Combines ... this afternoon I went to the exhibition at Moderna Muséet, the Museum of Contemporary Art, in Stockholm.
I love Robert Rauschenberg and his art. Always done it and Rauschenberg has a long history with Sweden, Moderna Muséet and Pontus Hultén, the director in the 60's.
Why isn't the art life in Stockholm as open and unpretentious and FUN today 2007 as it was in New York and Stockholm in the 60's! And why don't we have more museum directors as Pontus Hultén?
Sometimes I think I live in the wrong century.

Art - Edholm & Rehnberg at Millesgården

I went to an opening today. The Ann Edholm & Håkan Rehnberg exhibition at Millesgården, Carl Milles studio museum in Lidingö, the island just by Stockholm.

Ann Edholm shows gigantic intellectualized paintings, Håkan Rehnberg strict geometrical sculptures and subtle coloured sheets of paintings. But too much thinking to get into their art in my opinion, not much feelings expressed. But as objects - so decorative.

The best thing was that I took my mother with me. A nice afternoon out with mom is not what I get too often!

Millesgården is a favourite spot. A must-see when visiting Stockholm. The park, the home of Milles, the exhibitions, the coffee-shop. The museum shop is a gem with quality arty objects.
And Ann Edholm & Håkan Rehnberg show their work here until May 20.
