SWEDENDE part 3: Hello Angel!

Klokken halv ti var vi endelig fremme i København, og på trods af få timers søvn og et klamt toilet, blev Anna og jeg hurtigt enige om, at det på ingen måde kunne måle sig med den søvnløse nat og turen tilbage fra Napoli - hvis man skulle sammenligne med dén oplevelse, så havde turen til København næsten været luksuriøs. 

Første stop på turen var morgenmad, og vi endte med at gå til Vesterbro for at spise på Grød. Vi var alle ret trætte, men jeg formåede alligevel at få dem slæbt forbi Frederiksberg Allé, Palads, Det Kongelige Teater, Rådhuspladsen, forbi Tivoli, Byretten, Langelinje, Amalienborg og Den Lille Havfrue (selvfølgelig!) Vi fandt også ud af, hvor alle de svenskere, som havde forladt Stockholm var taget hen. For København var oversvømmet med svenske turister, og jeg tror faktisk, at jeg hørte mere svensk end dansk på vores gåtur. Derefter kunne vi dog ikke mere, og vi tog toget hjem til mig, hvor vi slappede af og tog en lur i haven. Om aftenen spiste vi aftensmad med resten af min familie og derefter tog vi cyklerne ned til Charlottenlund Fort og Skovshoved Havn for at se solnedgangen. 

Næste morgen tog vi toget ud til Louisiana, der blandt andet havde en udstilling med den islandske kunstner Ragnar Kjartansson og Pirosmani fra Georgien. Kjartansson havde blandt andet lavet en installation i et mørkt rum, hvor der kørte en video fra en 6-timer lang koncert, hvor Kjartansson og hans band spillede den samme sang om og om igen. Man kom næsten ind i en trancetilstand, og det var svært at forlade rummet igen. Efter et par timer spiste vi vores madpakker i parken, og derefter tog vi hjem og hæklede i haven under æbletræet. Om aftenen spiste vi igen aftensmad med min familie og så The Idol, som var både underholdende og meget foruroligende.

Dagen efter pakkede vi vores rygsække for at bruge dagen i København, inden vi skulle tage flyve mod Berlin om aftenen.

Arne Jacobsen (Feb. 11, 1902 - 1971) was a brilliant Danish architect and designer - world famous for his chairs which have been particularly beloved by American Presidents from Kennedy to Obama…

Jacobsen was a Modernist pioneer in Danish architecture, as witnessed by his own Functionalist house in Charlottenlund, Copenhagen from 1929. He also designed a beautiful gas station a bit up the coast in Skovshoved in 1936.

The images here show his iconic chair, The Egg - created for the SAS Royal Hotel across from the Copenhagen Central Station. You can see Arne Jacobsen inside the hotel, which is his chief Gesamtkunstwerk (1958-60) in the first b&w photo. In the other he is lounging in the Egg chair in double exposure. If you stay at the hotel, ask for Room 606 which is fully preserved in the original style with all the furnishings.

WE ❤️ Skovshoved! Where is Skovshoved? It’s in Denmark and it’s heading to a cafe there along with several other big signs. They asked us to design a mix and match font set up with a mix and match hand painted pattern and color finish. This big one was a labor of love!! Tomorrow it ships to Denmark. . . . . #neonsigns #customsigns #marqueesigns #functionalart #handmade #nashville #tennessee #skovshoved #denmark #toplinesignco #musiccityneon #signmakers #signshop #neon #marquee #led #shopsmall #neveroutsourced https://www.instagram.com/p/B_vcm-oljXE/?igshid=1n5t9idp03a97
