Swedish Curators in Warsaw, 1/2016
In January we spent 3 days with our guests from Stockholm on a research visit to Warsaw, organised by the Institute of Adam Mickiewicz in collaboration with the Creative Poland Foundation. It was the second trip of its kind and part of a long term Polish – Swedish Design Collaboration. Amongst the invited Swedish team were: Berndt Arell, director of the National Museum of Stockholm; Eva Kumlin, CEO of Svensk Form; Tom Hedqvist, graphic designer, former principal of Beckmans School and a director of Röhsska Museum, and designer/curator Sara Torsson Szyber.
The Swedish Ambassador to Poland, Ms Inga Eriksson Fogh, opened her residence to a reception for the Polish design community, where we all could continue our discussions on culture exchange.
