The Glass Kingdom
The history of Swedish glassmaking began in 1742 - it is a craft that is very much
alive to this day in Sweden. The film will take you to the Kingdom of Glass in the
southern province of Småland, which attracts visitors from all over the world.
Meet Erik Rosén who became Managing Director of Boda (later Kosta Boda) in 1947
at the age of 23. He was the first to realise the importance of attracting designers
and artists to modern glassmaking. His initiative in this direction made Swedish
glass world famous.
The film also features Erik Höglund, the first trendsetter at Boda, who was
followed by some of Swedens most famous design personalities like Bertil
Vallien, Ulrica Hydman-Vallien, Monica Backström, Kjell Engman, Göran Wärff,
Anna Ehrner, Rolf Sinnemark, Signe Persson-Melin and Erika Lagerbielke.
Christian Falk, Gunilla Hedvall-Falk Falkfilm.

Top 13 Destinations in Sweden
Top 13 Destinations in Sweden according to Lonely Planet
13. Inlandsbanan
Take a journey through the middle of Norrland along this historic train line, which passes by small mining towns, deep green forests, herds of reindeer and, if you're lucky, the occasional moose along the way. Built during the 1930s and rendered obsolete by 1992, the line has more than enough charm and historical appeal to make up for its lack of speed.
12. Winter Sports
Winter sports in Lappland are a major draw. To go cross-country skiing, just grab a pair of skis and step outside; for downhill sports, be it heliskiing or snowboarding, Åre is your best bet. Few pastimes are as enjoyable as rushing across the Arctic wasteland pulled by a team of dogs, the sled crunching through crisp snow -- but if you want something with a motor, you can test your driving (and racing) skills on the frozen lakes instead.
11. Vikings
There are still real, live Vikings, and you can visit them at one of Sweden's most absorbing attractions. An evocative 'living' reconstruction of a late--Viking Age village, Foteviken Viking Reserve was built on the coast near the site of the Battle of Foteviken (1134) and contains some 22 reed-roofed houses.
10. Bohuslän Coast
Caught between sky and sea, the coast of Bohuslän is raw and starkly beautiful, its skerries thick with birds and its villages brightly painted specks among the rocks. Choose from myriad quaint seaside bolt-holes.
9. Islands of Stockholm's Archipelago
From the Middle Ages until the end of the Cold War, the Swedish military has had troops, ships and fortifications in the archipelago, to defend Stockholm. The local population relied on subsistence fishing and farming, isolated from Stockholm's tremendous progress in the 19th century, as tourists started to colonize the area.
8. Gotland & Fårö
Gotland is Sweden's largest island, in the middle of the Baltic Sea. Some 50,000 people live here all year. Gotland is said to be the homeland of the legendary Goths, who sacked the Roman Empire during the 5th century AD.
7. Kingdom of Crystal
The Kingdom of Crystal is a geographical area today containing a total of 15 glassworks in the municipalities of Emmaboda, Nybro, Uppvidinge, Växjö and Lessebo in southern Sweden. Their history can be traced back to the 18th century at least.
6. Göteborg
Gothenburg is the second largest city in Sweden with approximately 520,000 inhabitants in the municipality. It is situated on Sweden's west coast at the outlet of the Göta river. With over 60,000 students, Gothenburg University is the largest in Scandinavia. Gothenburg has a reputation of being a friendly place, even more welcoming than the Swedish capital.
5. Local Cuisine
Due to Sweden's large north-south expanse there have always been regional differences in Swedish cuisine. Historically, in the far North, meats such as reindeer, and other (semi-) game dishes were eaten, some of which have their roots in the Sami culture, while fresh vegetables have played a larger role in the South.
4. Medieval Cities
It's hard to overstate the beauty of the Hanseatic port town of Visby, in itself justification for making the quick ferry trip to Gotland. Inside its thick medieval walls are twisting cobblestone streets, fairy-tale cottages draped in flowers and gorgeous ruins atop hills with stunning Baltic views.
3. Northern Delights
The Northern Lights or aurora borealis are a natural phenomenon that can paint the night sky with unearthly, surreal color. The Aurorae are caused by charged particles ejected from the sun. When these particles reach the earth, they collide with gas atoms and molecules in the earth's upper atmosphere, energising them and creating a spectacular multi-coloured light show.
2. Hiking
Particularly in the northern reaches, Sweden has some absolutely gorgeous hiking trails, most of which are well maintained and supplied with conveniently located mountain huts along the way. The season is relatively short, but it's worth a bit of extra planning to get out into the wilderness: its natural landscape is one of Sweden's best assets.
1. Stockholm
Stockholm is the capital and largest city of Sweden, with nearly 2 million inhabitants in its metropolitan area. The inner city is made up of 14 islands across Lake Mälaren and three streams into the brackish Baltic Sea, with the Stockholm archipelago with some 24,000 islands, islets and skerries. Over 30% of the city area is made up of waterways, and another 30% is made up of green areas.

Glasbruket på Skansen blåser armatur till ambassaden i Warszawa.
Sveriges ambassad i Warszawa har i en hall en armatur tillverkad vid Skansens glasbruk i slutet av 1930-talet. När den gick sönder bestämdes att Skansens glasbruk skulle få göra en likadan att ersätta den gamla med. Vi var med när den togs fram.

It is the largest, most expensive and mysterious sculpture ever created at Kosta Boda. It is truly an epic art piece, valued at $1 million.
Founded in 1742, Kosta Boda celebrates its 275th anniversary next year. Bertil Vallien's masterpiece Passage was created to honor Sweden's oldest glassworks and pay homage to its 53-year partnership with the artist by providing an unbridled opportunity for him to create his legacy piece.
With this project, Bertil Vallien is portraying the mythology of the history of the world, from birth to death. From the virgin princess to the mummification - the individual who wants to be immortal and live forever in time.
Bertil is internationally renowned, holds several design and art awards, and his work is represented in the most prestigious museums around the world. Thus, we are honored to unveil Passage, perhaps Bertil Vallien's most awe-inspiring and majestic masterwork.

Galeri Konuşması | Gallery Talk: Asa Jungnelius & Ahu Antmen
Aurora: Kuzey Ülkelerinden Çağdaş Cam Sanatı sergisi kapsamında düzenlenen söyleşi, İsveçli genç kuşak sanatçılar arasında en dikkat çekici isimlerden Asa Jungnelius ile sanat tarihçisi ve eleştirmen Ahu Antmen'i buluşturdu. Söyleşide Kuzey ülkelerindeki köklü cam sanatı geleneğinin günümüzde çağdaş sanata nasıl evrildiği ve bir kadın sanatçı olarak Asa Jungnelius'un, işlerinde kimlik, cinsiyet ve tüketim toplumlarına dair sorunsalları ne şekilde gündeme getirdiği tartışıldı.
----
In conjunction with the exhibition Aurora: Contemporary Nordic Glass Art, Asa Jungnelius, a remarkable name from Sweden's young generation of artists, was in conversation with art critic Ahu Antmen. The conversation focused on Nordic countries' well-established contemporary glass art tradition and how it has evolved, alongside an examination of Asa Jungnelius' work, which poses questions on identity, gender and consumer society.
