Pilane is one of Sweden’s most unique places, with a fascinating history, a large and well-preserved Iron-Age burial ground, nearby ancient fortifications and beautiful, varied topography. Here, nature and culture are in harmony, and landscape and art are joined in a common destiny.
At Pilane, you can enjoy nature and art at the same time. In summer 2025, we will host Primordial, a solo exhibition of the New York-based Swiss artist Ugo Rondinone. It features five monumental stone sculptures with individual titles: the dedicated, the eloquent, the youthful, the angelic, and the modern, all made in 2024. The presentation also includes the bronze sculpture the sun (2022).
Like visitors from the primordial past, these behemoths stand nearly five metres tall along the pathway through the Pilane Sculpture Park. Seemingly similar, these giants each have their distinct personalities, as their names suggest.
