The golden brass facade of this art gallery gleams on the south side of Vasaparken. It stages interesting temporary exhibitions on a variety of themes, but the main attractions are its rooftop terrace and sculpture garden, surrounding a replica of rooms from Sven-Harry’s former home: an 18th-century manor house on Lidingö, decorated with his extensive art and modern furniture collection.
