Guided tours of the art collection run from 7June – 27 August at Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays
All tours start from the SL Center on Sergels torg by T-Centralen station. Tours in Swedish start at 1.30 pm and tours in English start at 3 pm. The tour lasts approximately one hour and is free of charge, but you will need a valid ticket.
Moderna Museet proudly presents works of Siri Derkert, a pioneer of Swedish 20th century art. Her work for the Östermalmstorg metro station (1965) in Stockholm marked a radical change in the notion of public embellishment. English tours of the exhibition at the museum are available during July and August on Tuesdays at 2 pm.
