Art in public places
Two reproductions of nostalgic advertising posters from the 1950s that sit on a subway station (Hötorget) in Stockholm. Even though they are from the 50s, I would love to hang them in my office. There is something special about nostalgic posters.
The posters advertise Apotekarnes vatten (drinking water) and Toy chewing gum.
The posters are reprints of hand-painted advertising boards from the 1950s.
The left poster has the slogan "Visst katten, Apotekarnes vatten (Of course, apotekarnas water).
The right poster advertises Toy Swedish chewing gum with the text "Ta det lungt ta en TOY" (take it easy, take a TOY") These posters have been on Stockholm's local transport during the mid-20th century.
A boring building in a slaughterhouse area has been highlighted thanks to the artist who decorated the house with his art.
The house is located in the Slakthusområdet/Globen. Stockholm/Sweden
The artwork in the picture is a relief created by sculptor Aston Forsberg (1922-2001).
Aston Forsberg was a Swedish sculptor, born on Alnön outside Sundsvall. He is known for his powerful public works in steel and concrete.
Forsberg studied at Konstfack and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm.
This work was made 1969 and is called "Mutation" It stands at Sabbatsbergs Sjukhus in Stockholm.
In Stockholm (Sergels torg) stands a large sculpture in a lovely bright pink color. This beautiful sculpture is called Baby and is created by a Swedish artist Hanna Hansdotters.
Baby is made of recycled aluminum. Recycling materials and creating art is worth noting, which Hanna and Baby have been able to do in, among other things, Vogue magazine.
