'STREAKS OF COLOUR'

Painting and drawing are my main techniques, but I like to work in mixed materials with chalk, spray, templates and textiles. Colour is what  comes first - when I find the nuances, the contrasts, the luminosity, then I also find the shapes. The political '68 affected me in different directions and made me falter before I stood steadily at the easel.  Nowadays, I think that each theme, each artwork, each intention requires its expression, its image, - the color, shape, and content.

GALLERI UPSALA 1810
Svartbäcksgatan 21
753 32 UPPSALA

Kenneth Engblom is a painter whose art is mostly inspired by old houses, churches and towers which he has spotted during his travels in Italy, Spain, Estonia, China and other countries. He prefers to show his art in most unexpected places like in the catacombs of the Crypt Gallery in London, the old cable factory in Helsinki, the antique furnace in Deruta, the Glyptotheque in Tartu, the medieval castle tower in Paide, the Forsby-Köping limestone cableway or the open air museum of Mannaminne.
This is the first time for the artist to exhibit...

The opening takes place in Värdshuset (the restaurant)

Cecilia Ciscar has taken on the project to fill tram nr. 143 from Norrköping with passengers. The tram retired in 2000 and found a resting place in Ångermanland 2 years later, far from its place of birth and far from its workplace.
In the summer of 2018 the visitors to Mannaminne will meet Cecilia Ciscar's faces, which together with the tram will become one work of art. The 'streetcar faces' observe the wide entrance of this open-air museum created by Anders and Barbro Åberg.
The simplicity of our artist's faces is apparent. The pursuit o...

The opening takes place in Önlogen

The exhibition is part of the NORDINGRÅ KONSTRUNDA  18 - 20 May 2018

Our summer exhibition in Mannaminne has already become a tradition. This summer we have at our disposal the high-vaulted Örnlogen which is ideal for larger artworks; the timbered cottage from Estonia with its intimate interior and the first tram in Tallinn - a somewhat unusual but cool space for an exhibition.

Past shows: "Memories", Frang Dushaj - "Memories in Black and White", Kenneth Engblom - "My Estonia", "Flashbacks", Memories from Estonia", "Good Old Memories", Frang Dushaj - "More...

Users of the Stockholm Metro have for decades been able to admire in the passages and on platforms the artwork of a large number of creative artists. Recently we were offered the unique opportunity by one of them, the late Anders Åberg (who along with Karl Olof Björk decorated Solna Station), to make an exhibition inside a subway car which stands in the Mannaminne Museum. It is not just any subway car, it is the Silverpile...

Mannaminne (Living memory) open air museum is a Swedish cultural heritage on the beautiful Höga Kusten. Its founder artist Anders Åberg had a vision to bring in the world and create a forum for ideas and dreams, and preserve the memories of the past. He started his project in the 1980ies on a piece of forest land in Nordingrå, close to his father Pelle Åbergs art studio. Together with his wife Barbro and friends, he has for decades developed Mannaminne, which today consists of 60 buildings of cultural and historic value. Some are built on the spot, others have been transported  from far and...
