Exhibition: Giacometti Alberto Giacometti sought
with his art to bring modernism into the world of sculpture, at least in the sense that he strove to push the artform forward and firmly into the future and create works that resonated with the times. This exhibition showcases around 100 of his works, as well as revealing his relationships with some of the other major artists and thinkers of his time, including the influence his friendships with writers like Jean Genet and Samuel Beckett had on his artistic worldview.

They’re opening two new projects for kids, Tidsvalvet and Mitt Liv. With Tidsvalvet, on-site at the museum, children can via an interactive exhibition explore how their lives might have been had they lived in another time period, though a playful journey through the past 150 years. Mitt Liv on the other hand is a digital project aimed at school classes, where children can send in information about their own lives to be preserved to tell the story of our current age (a similar project took place in 1942). The stories will become part of Nordiska’s collection, a resource for future researchers. Nordiska Museet, Djurgårdsvägen 6–16 27 Photo: Carl Thorborg
