CAROUSCHKA STREIJFFERT – The Victory of Urge over Resistance
Carouschka Streijffert (b.1955) is an artist, architect, scenographer, active in Stockholm and on her own island in the Stockholm archipelago. In the exhibition, the viewer encounters hundreds of sculptural objects, collages and paintings, which together show the artist’s rich aesthetic symbolism and present a museum structure characterized by resistance to mass production.
Ulla and Gustav Kraitz – Sensual
In the Kraitz Hall, a new installation with ceramic sculpture by the artist couple Ulla and Gustav Kraitz, RAVINEN’s founder, is shown.
Create with light and sound: Experience light and sound installations
During a creative workshop, children born between 2013 and 2015 have created light and sound installations in and around RAVINEN together with a light designer and a composer. Experience the installations in the winter darkness and don’t miss the interactive installation in the Birgit Nilsson Hall. The project is a collaboration between RAVINEN and Bjäre Kraft.
