Late summer is an excellent time to travel to Scandinavia, and this year especially there is a convergence of festivals, biennials, and notable museum exhibitions going on that should draw any art lover north. This week we take a look at what Scandinavia has to offer, from Copenhagen's city center to the remote reaches of the Arctic Circle. In our featured News and Articles section, we bring you a selection of important upcoming auction lots for the week, as well as 10 recommended exhibitions opening around the world. And in this week's video, we learn about the process and practice of Adrián Villar Rojas, whose major solo exhibition, “Fantasma,” is currently on view at the Moderna Museet Stockholm.  Enjoy! With temperatures neither blistering nor blustery, summer in Scandinavia reveals the magic of the northern landscape, from the spectacular fjords of Norway, to the forests of Finland. This year in particular, there is quite a convergence of festivals, biennials, and notable exhibitions occurring in late August in Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. From the historical to the contemporary, from city centers to the far-flung reaches of the Arctic Circle, there is an abundance of events and exhibitions drawing art lovers to the northernmost reaches of Europe.
