Bigert & Bergström
Skellefteå Art Gallery presents the Broken Greenhouse by the Swedish art duo Bigert & Bergström, whose new exhibition, The Broken Greenhouse, focuses on the destructive human impulse to control and tame nature by creating space for cultivation and cities. For this exhibition, the artists are showing new and older works that in different ways allude to the idea that nature created for humanity a perfect climate that is now broken. For almost thirty years, Mats Bigert and Lars Bergström's work has been driven by scientific and historical theories, often with clear reference to issues concerning the current climate crisis.

What: Shohaz
Shohaz
Join musicians from Golbang on Shohaz (seeking) journey! We get to hear how heavy, swinging rhythms from Turkey work together with goosebump-inducing melodies from Iran, or how melancholic Swedish songs sound together with joyful music from Argentina.The children get involved by singing in different languages; they get to learn Kurdish ring dance and to clap different rhythms.
The songs are performed in Swedish, Persian, Baluchi, Turkish and Kurdish, and there is also Iranian folk dance and swirling Sufi dance. In addition to musical fireworks, the performance is also a humorous insight into our differences and similarities and thus an insight into how everything between us humans is connected. The event is part of the Children's Culture Weekend May 6-7 at Nordanå.
Time: 10:30 - 11:15. Performance duration is 45 minutes.
Where: Nordanå, Trädgårdsgatan 7, 931 31 Skellefteå
