Lewerentz Symposium
The exhibition Sigurd Lewerentz: Architect of Death and Life is now closed. In connection with the last days of the exhibition we wanted to acknowledge the exciting research and thinking about Lewerentz that has happened beyond the museum. ArkDes welcomed the audience to a research symposium where academics, writers and other researchers shared new ways of discovering the works of Sigurd Lewerentz.
