SSE Art Initiative
Since 2013, the SSE Art Initiative has brought art to the heart of the Stockholm School of Economics, supporting its educational mission with a focus on being Fact-based, Reflective, Empathetic, and Entrepreneurial. Thanks to funding from The Hamrin Foundation, the initiative uses art to inspire, provoke, and enhance our critical thinking.
The initiative collaborates with top art institutions like Moderna Museet and Tensta Konsthall, and academic partners like the Royal Institute of Art and KTH.
