Besides providing many wonderful photo opportunities, Stockholm also offers one of the largest contemporary photography museums in the world. Located in the beautiful Stockholm harbor, Fotografiska focuses only on photography as an art form. Even the building, originally a custom service house, kept its original Art Noveau style during the renovation. Four major exhibits, along with 15 to 20 minor exhibits are featured each year.
Approaching the square at the main entrance is the interesting and controversial bronze sculpture by Dan Wolgers, a well known Swedish artist.
Controversial? I’ll let you decide. I love his imagination!

I learned “A dirty mind is a joy forever” from Astrid, whose dad would then add “and a pretty girl is a toy forever.” As I usually say, if we can’t take a joke…..
Exactly! I have a feeling they can get away with murder in Scandinavia, Robin, based on the art I saw in Oslo. HA!

Oh how I love that! I’m going to quote Astrid and her father in some future post, ha ha! I so agree with you. Can you imagine any of this in the USA? Big hugs!
