Wednesday we visited Gothenburg Röhsska Museum for Design, Fashion and Decorative Arts. Anything is covered by this description as I discovered when I found a sign over the bathroom radiator
Staircase
The ceiling of the museum shop
From the collection of early modern times
Tapestry Running water from 1906 by Swedish artist Gustaf Fjæstad - cotton, wool, and silk.
The Le Courbusier kitchen
From one of their many display cases
Relief Saigon Fell this Morning from 1975 by Swedish artist Lillemor Peterson
From the exhibition Family Outlet by Zandra Ahl
A strange exhibition was the From the Coolest Corner - contemporary nordic jewlery. Some items were quite nice - others really challenged my concept of jewlery. Here are three that I actually like.
Broche Grandma sings the blues from 2011-12 by Norwegian designer Elise Hatlø
Necklace Garland from 2010 by Finish designer Aino Favén - this is made from used plastic bags/polyester cloth
In the museum shop a surprise exhibit of two mosaics from the throne room of Nebukadnesar II's (y. 604-563 B.C.) - the lion and the dragon
Hugs and stitches from
