- Updated
Our newly opened exhibition featuring artist Claes Hake has sparked great interest. While the reviews are in Swedish, we have compiled some of the articles published so far. Take a look at what’s being said about the exhibition:
"A retrospective of the Swedish artist Claes Hake opens at The Nordic Watercolour Museum in Skärhamn. A celebration, writes Boel Ulfsdotter."

"The paintings are almost like imprints of Hake's movements – a kind of action painting – where the impulse splashes, driven by the desire to find a form that conveys something that must not remain unsaid.
