This project is about the Eastern Cemetery at Malmö, about art and architecture and maybe it touches values that really unite or separate man and nature. The exhibition took place at the Eastern Cemetery in Malmö, Sweden, one of the main works of the famous Swsedish arcitect Sigurd Lewerentz (1884-1975). Several artists/ architects were invited to make installations at the cemetery, as an hommage to Lewerentz. These were Antony Gormley (GB), Elle Klarskow Jørgensen (DK), Truls Melin (S), Rikke Ravn Sørensen (DK), Anders Munch (DK), and Peter Märkl (CH). This project is a part of the cultural exchange program: Kulturbo 2002. Some plans and elevations are included.
