Tensta Museum: Reports from New Sweden

This publication documents and discusses Tensta konsthall's experimental multi-year project, Tensta Museum: Reports from New Sweden, that ran from 2013–18 in Tensta and beyond. By pretending to be a museum, the project created a richly contrasting patchwork stretching over six years, in which manifold interests and expressions together formed a narrative with tensions and conflicts erupting around questions like, what history and heritage? to whom do they belong?and, what about the present? [publisher’s note]
