Skateboards
Röhsska Museum 18 June – 2 November 2008
With design, fashion and handicraft as the point of departure we focus on the rolling board


The exhibition will describe skating as a lifestyle, the board as a design object and to it the fashion. The Röhsska Museum will dive deep into this world phenomenon, with the board as a passion, a must and a life philosophy for many. After 50 years of product development, this apparently simple concept which has become a million dollar industry and an elite-athletic is examined. The exhibition can be considered as a warm-up before the World Championship in slalom skateboard which will take
place in Göteborg on the 1st – 3rd of August 2008.
