(New) Museum Of Spirits

Entance on the waterfront
That's alcoholic spirits, non ghostly spirits! Spritmuseum is the newest museum inwards Stockholm (opening for earth simply a few weeks ago) as well as is dedicated to alcoholic beverages as well as our human relationship alongside them. I was, of course, curious virtually this latest add-on to the Stockholm cultural landscape hence I took the chance to catch the museum this by Sunday.
Restaurant
Located on the isle of Djurgården close other pop attractions similar the Vasa Museum, Skansen as well as Gröna Lund... the location can't survive beat. In fact, inwards a fleck of witty advertising, they announced that the best house for a museum dedicated to alcohol is betwixt a wreck (the Vasa) as well as a roller coaster (Gröna Lund). They've also stated that this volition survive much to a greater extent than than simply a museum... a coming together place, eating theatre & bar, fine art gallery as well as tasting room equally well. From what I could see, this seems to survive true. I didn't conduct maintain a peril to endeavor their restaurant, but it was amount of happy people as well as the nutrient looked delicious. An extra addition for their outdoor seating expanse correct on the water!
Andy Warhol's Absolut art
I actually enjoyed their electrical flow exhibition: Face It! From the Absolut Art Collection. I'm erstwhile plenty to recall as well as appreciate the cracking fine art inwards Absolut Vodka's advertisements inwards the belatedly 80's as well as early on 90's. And this collection contained unopen to of these plant (Warhol, Ruscha as well as Harring) equally good equally another to a greater extent than media-based art. All inwards all, real interesting. Their permanent exhibition is called Sweden: Spirits as well as a Nation. This takes an interactive (sight, sound, sense of savour as well as smell) expect at Sweden's bittersweet human relationship alongside alcohol.
Absolut low-cal installation
To larn at that spot from the Rival Hotel... simply accept the Djurgårds ferry from Slussen (10 infinitesimal trip) as well as and hence walk along the H2O towards the Vasa Museum.
