Anyone who travels around Stockholm today finds a permanent exhibition of art in Sweden. There are about 500 outdoor sculptures in Sweden's capital, which makes Stockholm an international art city. Among the artworks in Stockholm, there are works by classics and monumental sculptors. There are also more works by the modern sculptor generation. Swedish sculpture reflects the country's tensions between classical and modernity in a slower form.
