The exhibition ”Irremediable (Study)” is comprised of diverse, yet interconnected materials related to the so called ”Norrmalmsregleringen” or the “City Sanitation” — a vast and complex redevelop- ment project of Stockholm City, carried out in the time between 1950 and 1970. The exhibition contains a group of sculptural works and prints. The foundation of the sculptural works consist of physical reconstructions of architectural motifs from buildings demolished during the urban revitalization. An exchange is initiated between the reconstructions and archival imagery, addressing in different ways, the transformations of a part of the city district’s social, architectural, and cultural idiom. The project consequently tries to examine how a small part of Stockholm's history can be retrieved and seen anew. The exhibition thus becomes the subject of meditation, on some accounts, of a bygone city district and the way in which architectural developments are coded in and affects a city's structure and collective memory.
