One big beautiful bathroom

Hours at the beach – swimming – sunbathing – eating icecream is soooo nice when you have lived 15 years in Greenland where the ocean is around 0-1 celcius the whole year around – it can be very warm in Greenland – but swimming is rare – I really appreciate beach visits right now.

And this particular beach is located at the end of a long road in the forest and in the end the wonderful Moesgård Museum is located – right before this very beautiful beach and surroundings.

Todays colourdose

At Aros at lovely art museum in the middle of Aarhus…I was so lucky to be gifted a years membership with an extra person to this lovely and colourful museum…

Today was the first time of many visits and I really enjoyed it with my girls and some good old friends which came in from Copenhagen to visit us for some days.

Days at museums – exploring this new place – this new city means a lot of walks – today more than 11km/ 7 miles and 15 floors – yesterday was more or less the same…besides I need to continue projects from Greenland I think a couple of days at the beach would be good for us the voming days…

A lot of history

And beautiful surroundings at Moesgård Museum where we went yesterday. Its a huge museum (with a lot of stairs because of its architecture, where you can have a nice view at the countryside of Aarhus at the rooftop).

We were not able to visit the whole museum – but having a membership for a year we will definetely pay the museum regularly visits!

Tourist in our own city

First day being tourist’ in our own city , Aarhus, in wonderful warm and sunny weather…a whole afternoon at “Den gamle by”, (the museum The old city)…placed in the middle of Aarhus city…that was so cosy, relaxing and funny…

Soo sweet and huge bumblebee at the museum today

I had a wonderful birthday and new home gift a few days ago – a years access with a partner to the art museum Aros – which I really look forward to use..

Its sitting in the walls

I have a passion for very old houses and their history, which goes along so well with a swedish TV series from the Swedish Television called Its sitting in the walls / Det sitter i väggarna. The show has two host’ one is a building antiquarian and the other one is a historian. And

Homeowners write in with a video application where they ask curious question about their homes…and then 6 of them are chosen each season…and the show has been running for a lot of seasons. I really like the way they have made it, its a combination of detective work, history, building renovation of parts of the houses, the destiny of the former homeowners, and some about the timeperiods….its in swedish…

Waiting for a match….

The french based photographer Stefan Draschan enjoys visiting different museums mostly in Paris, Vienna and Berlin where he waits for visitors to suddenly match with a piece of art in a funny way. The result is these humorous and unique pictures of unexpected harmony between people and the artworks they’re facing. It’s usually the outfits that match the art, but there are also people who match with the paintings because of their hair styles and colors, or even beards.

Take a look at his blog, and see more of his lovely project…I like the project people sleeping in museums

Street Art inspiration

a new museum  with street art opened yesterday in Berlin, Germany, its called Urban Nation, and the purpose of it is to connect, create and care a global art community, a network without limits. So these days in connection with the opening they have a lot of interesting events, like the ArtMeile

170908_UN_ArtMeileMap_A3_web2_klein-1097x604.jpg

Between Nollendorfplatz and Bülowstraße underground stations in Berlin-Schöneberg, different art instillations and performances will be shown under the tracks between the two underground stations. There is prepared hand-on activities, such as community walls, for everyone who wants to get (artistically) involved.

So some inspiration for the future or for those in the neighbourhood of Berlin…
