MOVEMENTS

Experience the power of sport in an outdoor exhibition at Hertig Johans torg. Brighten the autumn darkness with a striking visual experience! This autumn, you can discover MOVEMENTS, a large-scale outdoor exhibition capturing speed, strength and precision in attention-grabbing photographs. It is being shown in Sweden for the first time, right in the centre of Skövde.

The exhibition is by photographer Geoff Lowe, who portrays sport in a unique way. By combining several sequences of images in a single photograph, he brings the full movement into view. A jump, a running stride or a dive becomes more than a single moment: you can follow the power, concentration and movement through the image. Geoff Lowe is based in the United Kingdom and has a background in athletics, which informs his portrayal of the dynamics and precision of sport. The exhibition includes images featuring events from the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

Art in the midst of everyday life

This exhibition is for both art enthusiasts and those fascinated by sport. As it is displayed outdoors in the town centre, it is easy to discover during a visit to Skövde, whether you are here for shopping, a walk or a day in town. Here, art and everyday life meet in a way that sparks curiosity and invites new perspectives.
