Skount develops a line of work characterized by a mixture of influences and multiple forms of expression. It deals with the creation of a wide range of possibilities: from mural painting to music, canvas based work, performances, video art, sculpture and installations.
The stimulus that projects the totality of his works is “the fundamental necessity of the human being to free his mind, his emotions and sensations that extended over soul that have been nourished by everything that surrounds and stimulates him. To research about the ‘oneiric’ spectrum in a manner in which the urban environment hardens the individual”
A specific characteristic of his work is his interest in texture which can be explained by his interest in the sensorial and reception in terms of the manner of understanding the creation in other cultures.
A great traveler’s spirit and a great curiosity for other traditions and places inspired him to research different types of creativity and carrying out numerous murals throughout Spain and in a lot of countries that have allowed him to integrate a great diversity of influences within his work.
The 25th Hour Lounge will be open for anyone to see the art from 2nd December onwards on: Mondays closed Tuesdays – Fridays 11am-6pm Saturdays & Sundays from 12- 4pm
AN EVENING WITH SWEDISH CUISINE, 13TH DECEMBER, 19H-21H AT THE 25TH HOUR LOUNGE
Winter has already got a hold on Scandinavia, bringing cold darkness to the deep North. Every year on the 13th of December, just before the white blanket of snow comes to brighten up the frozen world, Santa Lucia – the white clad Maid of Light stops by to shed warmth on the hearts and bones of the Swedes.
At Aalborg Hotel, however, the white clad Swedish Chef – Rikard Andersson and his team will do their utmost to warm your hearts and souls by guiding you trough a traditional Swedish Three Course tasting menu that includesSNAPS and beer. You will be introduced to herring, salmon, reindeer, moose and bear from responsible and sustainable producers. The food is prepared through traditional methods, using time as the main preservative. Each course and the accompanying beverages will be presented by the Chef himself. Knowing why your full and with what, is always a good idea.
The cost for the evening is 25 EUR and will start at 19.00. Please respect the time as the presentation for each dish will be presented to the entire audience. Please keep in mind that alcohol will accompany the dishes, so if you are pregnant or under age, this event might not be for you. However if this still interests you, please inform us of your condition and we will try to oblige you with alternatives.

MENU & BOOKING INFORMATION: RIKARD ANDERSSON (+31619518199)
The bar is fully equipped with booze, snacks and vending machines. Our TVs play sporting events nightly. If you’re dying to see Inter Milan play Barcelona or Roger Federer destroy some other poor fellow, let us know. Have a drink, listen to some tunes and admire the exquisite photography. We keep a board up in the bar that Ivan obsessively updates with the coolest goings on in Amsterdam, whether it’s museum exhibitions or where the best DJs are spinning. 10 minutes in the bar and you’ll have your whole trip planned.
