A TIME FOR EVERYTHING
25 YEARS OF CONTEMPORARY ART AT SCANDINAVIA HOUSE
Scandinavia House, NYC, USA
October 2025 - February 2026
The American-Scandinavian Foundation presents A Time for Everything: 25 Years of Contemporary Art at Scandinavia House, opening on October 18, 2025. Organized in conjunction with the cultural center’s 25th anniversary, which has welcomed over 3 million visitors since opening in October 2000, the exhibition features internationally acclaimed Nordic artists — all of whom have previously shown work in the Scandinavia House Galleries over the past 25 years. The exhibition underscores the Galleries’ role as a platform for both established and emerging Nordic voices in contemporary art and promotes the exchange of ideas and culture between the United States and the Nordic region.
Among the participating artists is Sámi artist Britta Marakatt-Labba, who will exhibit her work Shadows and Reflections.
Fences and fractures run between worlds. The mine has left its mark – a wound in the mountain, an intrusion into both landscape and life. Here, the visible and the invisible meet: humanity, history, resistance.
With needle and thread, Britta Marakatt-Labba embroiders a story of place, memory, and division – where every stitch carries both sorrow and strength.
