About

In the new strand of program – The Biennial Pavilion – Wanås Konst will invite artists to work with a historic Pavilion in the sculpture park on a biennial basis. For the period 2026-2027, the Brazilian artist Carla Zaccagnini has been invited to develop the commission. Zaccagnini is based in Malmö. Her practice is research-based and conceptually driven, and she often focuses her artistic inquiries on understanding how power structures manifest themselves in our built and lived environments.

Zaccagnini is currently exploring the site and developing her artwork that will open on May 9, 2026.

About the Biennial Pavilion

For the 2024 season, Wanås Konst invited the artist Evan Ifekoya to produce a new work. They chose to work with a historic Pavilion in the park and transformed the existing structure near the pond into a space of contemplation and self-reflection. The work was intended to remain in the sculpture park for two years, after which the Pavilion’s original structure would be reinstated.

The response from our audiences to the work was very positive and changed the way this part of the park was used by visitors. Wanås Konst has therefore decided to launch a newstrand of the programme inviting different artists to work with the historic Pavilion on a biennial basis. Artists working with the Pavilion will be encouraged to consider the space as a meeting point and a place for pause and reflection within the park.  

Opening: May 9
