Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Georgy and Vladimir Stenberg, central participants of the Russian avant-garde and the first to use the term "constructivist", were Swedish. Thanks to the first international 'two-person' museum exhibition on the Stenberg brothers, in the summer of 1997 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, interest in their work has been renewed. The focus of the MoMA exhibition was on the film posters. In addition to the Stenbergs' work as constructivists and theatre scenographers, this is the part of their work that has brought them most international fame. There is, however, one aspect which, if mentioned at all, is mentioned only in passing: the Stenbergs were chief designers for the Red Square in Moscow. In addition to a brief presentation of the Swedish heritage of Vladimir Augustovich (1899 - 1982) and Georgy Augustovich Stenberg (1900 - 1933), the aim of this article is to introduce the Stenbergs as designers for the celebrations in the Red Square. Other key places along the parade route in central Moscow were the Palace of the Soviets and Gorky Park. The Stenberg brothers participated in all three projects. In order to get an idea of what proportions these mass stagings had, I will discuss them in the context of the reconstruction of Moscow into a parade centre, the first five-year plan, and the cultural revolution, all of which took place at the same time as the Stenbergs established themselves as designers for street festivities. First of all, however, I shall give a short background of Georgy and Vladimir Stenberg and their aesthetical standpoints in art.

Anne-Marie Ericsson. The Interiors of M/S Kungsholm: Masterpieces in Swedish Art Deco
- 2008

Review (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Art Deco is a style that has hitherto gained too little attention in Swedish history of art and design. With her special focus on the 1920s and 1930s Anne-Marie Ericsson, a well known author and lecturer in the Swedish design world, is the just author for this period. Therefore I open her M/S Kungsholms inredning. Mästerverk i svensk art deco [The Interior of M/S Kungsholm. A masterpiece in Swedish art deco][i] with great expectations.As the title implies, the aim of the book is to treat the interiors of M/S Kungsholm, the show-piece of the Swedish American Line. This focus is reasonable, insofar as the exterior presented nothing new, according to the author, whereas the interior was enthusiastically received by the New York press as a “fairy tale castle” when she arrived on her maiden voyage in New York, December 1928. (p. 9).Trying to present a reconstruction of how the ship looked, although almost nothing remains of it today, Anne-Marie Ericsson has taken upon herself a task that is not an easy one. The fate of M/S Kungsholm was unfortunate. After a glorious decade, she transported troops during World War II, incredibly enough escaped bombs and torpedoes, became a cruise ship in the Mediterranean and was finally broken up in Bilbao in 1964. By that time, the interiors had been almost entirely extinguished and the furniture plundered or sold.[i] If not stated otherwise, all the translations from Swedish to English are my own, M.T.
