Exhibition: Kiruna Forever One of the downsides o
f mining is that it can make a big hole. And things can then fall into that hole. To stop that being the fate of Kiruna, Sweden’s northernmost city, they’re moving the town by three kilometres, which means that about a third of the people and buildings have to move. This exhibition at ArkDes tracks this extraordinary event, talking to architects, urban planners and artists about the move, and about Kiruna’s history and future. Paying a visit will let you see some incredible images, including whole buildings on the move.

Now extended to September after its initial February-May run time was disrupted by corona, Art In Fashion is the baby of fashion expert and trend analyst Cay Bond, who has brought together the works of 14 designers, both Swedish and international, whose work is clearly influenced by the world of art. It’s a tribute to the avant garde, of both the fashion and art worlds. Art In Fashion, Sven Harrys Konstmuseum, on display until Sep 27 Are you or is someone close to you a gin fanatic?
