When the days barely end in Sweden and the light glides over meadows, water surfaces and treetops even in the late evening hours, a special form of garden photography is created. Midsummer is more than just a date in the calendar - it is an atmosphere.
The exhibition GARTENFOKUS - Midsummer Gardens is dedicated to this Nordic garden atmosphere. From historic city parks with their strictly defined parterres and old trees, to castle gardens embedded in the landscape by the sea, to experimental natural and educational landscapes in which biodiversity and contemporary design come together. Botanical collections, castle parks, urban green spaces and artists' gardens are combined in the exhibition to create a multi-layered panorama of Nordic garden culture.
Characteristic of these gardens is the play with light. The low sun shapes pergolas and rows of trees, reflects water surfaces and highlights blossoms like luminous accents. At the same time, there is room for the quiet, almost meditative side of the garden: natural areas, meadows with interspersed wild plants and transitions between the landscaped grounds and the surrounding landscape.
