Since the late eighteenth century, science, architecture, and art have interacted with nature in the area that is now Campus Frescati. Parts of this earlier history are still visible, others have disappeared. A new era began in 1960, when the then Stockholm University College became a state university, and preparations began to create a campus for this new seat of learning. During the tour, we will look at art, architecture and nature at Frescati, inside and out, focusing on the period from 1960 until the present day.

Merit Laine will guide the tour. She is Associate Professor of Art History and Curator of the Stockholms University Art Collections.
