Art at SEB

When SEB moved its headquarters to a brand new property in Arenastaden, Solna in 2017, the existing art collection was modernized, and an investment in Nordic art was made. A modern and contemporary art collection was created, which has received wide attention, and art tours are frequently held in the building.

Over 65 Nordic artists are represented and several of the works are site-specific. Here you will find selected artworks of the collection.

Digital art tour

SEB's Martin Joanson and three of the people who selected works for the collection give you a digital art walk in Arenastaden, and talk about some of their own favourite works.
