Vigeland context

A monumental sculpture installation inside Frogner Park

The Vigeland installation contains more than 200 sculptures by Gustav Vigeland in bronze, granite and wrought iron. Developed over decades within Frogner Park, it explores human bodies, relationships and stages of life. The alien threat belongs entirely to the quest fiction; the sculptures and their unusual concentration in one public landscape are real. Playable languages: English.
