Konstverk Löst konflikt

‘Löst konflikt’
(Resolved conflict) stands outside the hotel at the western abutment of the
Åbron bridge, where Lundberg’s furniture factory once stood. The stainless
steel and bronze sculpture reads: “Här låg Lundbergska fabriken. År
1904 bildade arbetarna fackförening. En konflikt följde. Den löstes år 1911. Föreningsrätten var härmed erkänd” (Here stood the
Lundberg factory. In 1904, the workers formed a trade union. A conflict
followed. It was resolved in 1911. Thus, the right of association was
recognised).

Rune Karlzon trained
as a master wood carver in Jönköping and then studied at Konstfack (University
of Arts, Crafts and Design) in the 1950s before training as a master stone
carver in Stockholm.
