Charlotte Gyllenhammar @ House of Sweden
At the east end of the Georgetown Waterfront, just under the Whitehurst Freeway, lies The House of Sweden. This spacious and light-bathed venue houses the Embassies of Sweden and Iceland, and often hosts a number of elegant events and exhibits. Its lawn, facing the Potomac River, is a beacon for picnickers and anyone looking for a comforting greenspace in busy Georgetown. Such a near-idyllic location makes Charlotte Gyllenhammar’s claustrophobic, unsettling Hang, currently on display in the lower-level Alfred Nobel Hall, all the more striking.
