Lunch showing of the exhibition ARCHITECTURE SCULPTURE – Sigurd Lewerentz, Petra Gipp

Skissernas Museum’s major exhibition for the spring and summer highlights the architect Sigurd Lewerentz (1885–1975) and some of his most famous buildings. The projects presented in the exhibition – the Eastern Cemetery with chapel and flower kiosk in Malmö (1916–1975), Malmö City Theatre (1927–1944) and St Peter’s Church in Klippan (1962–1966) – span a period of almost 60 years, a period of shifting architectural ideals and considerable changes in society. Through drawings, models, and objects, as well as archive material, photographs, and film clips, we can find out about Lewerentz’s ideas concerning architecture and cemeteries.

As far back as 1968, the museum presented an exhibition about Lewerentz’s work – the first institution in Sweden to do so. Since then, interest in Lewerentz has constantly grown, not least internationally. Today, he is considered to be one of the leading architects of the 1900s, and his work continues to inspire new generations. One example is the architect and artist Petra Gipp, who has created a new sculptural work for the exhibition, an architectural exploration of Lewerentz’s world.

Skissernas Museum – Museum of Artistic Process and Public Art now welcomes all employees at Lund University to a guided lunch tour through the exhibition!
