Moderna Museet Collection

We take a closer look at the artist Öyvind Fahlström. Join in on a tour that highlights one artist. The guided tour is about 20–30 minutes. Free admission. No advance booking. Welcome!

Immerse yourself in our large, rich art collection based on the theme ”Travels in Time and Space”. See Pascal Sébah’s photographs of pyramids, Henri Matisse’s Moroccan landscapes, Ivan Aguéli’s Egyptian paintings and Tora Vega Holmström’s painting ”Främlingar”. Paris was not the only destination which artists and photographers travelled to  in the 20th century to get inspiration, meet colleagues and exchange ideas. They also travelled to cities like Algiers, Tangier, Cairo and Constantinople which motivated them to experiment with new shapes, colours and motifs. The guided tour is free and no booking is required.

See ”Stones Have Laws (Dee Sitonu a Weti)” by Lonnie van Brummelen & Siebren de Haan. The film is an immersive initiation into the life of a Maroon community in the former Dutch colony of Suriname. Combining stories of African ancestral traditions and escaped slavery with enacted contemporary rituals, the film explores how the community’s powerful ties to the land have become endangered as industries threaten to devastate the region through deforestation and mining. Book your free ticket: filmklubben@modernamuseet.se.
