MOVEMENTS

Experience the power of sport in an outdoor exhibition in the heart of Hertig Johans torg. Brighten the autumn gloom with a striking visual experience! This autumn, you can visit MOVEMENTS, a spectacular outdoor exhibition where speed, strength and precision are captured in eye-catching images. 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 image sequences in a single photograph, he reveals the full movement. A jump, a running stride or a dive becomes more than a single moment: you can follow the force, concentration and movement through the image. Geoff Lowe is based in the UK 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 everyday life

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