Stallion
- Unveiled 2001
- Materials Ceramics, different types of clay, sinker nails, sand, glass, porcelain
- Dimensions 70 × 150 × 250 cm
- Artist Beate Juell
- Where Show on map
Stallion extends itself towards the sky with wide-open eyes. All muscles are tense in a rearing movement and only one hoof touches the ground. The horse’s pose testifies that something has happened or will happen. The upturned movement can represent energy and life or mark a last spasm before the horse falls over and life fades away. Does the horse represent an entrance into life or an exit from life?
The sculpture is made of several materials, including stainless steel and porcelain. The combination contributes to a varied surface with both rough and smooth areas, which adds to the illusion of movement and life.

The energy and shape of the sculpture easily give associations to the surrounding natural landscape, especially the water and the waterfall's fierce power/energy.

20 Tony Cragg, I'm Alive
This sculpture, with the fitting title I’m Alive, at first glance looks like a powerful creature meandering forward.
-
21 Tony Cragg, Bent of mind
Bent of Mind looks as though it is constantly growing and changing. The two profiles, which make up the sculpture’s main motive, constantly change character as you move around the sculpture to see them from different angles.

The installation, with its location in the midst of nature, can be seen as a commentary on man's relationship with nature.
-
38 Tony Cragg, Castor & Pollux
With Castor & Pollux, Cragg takes a new and radical step in the development of the Rational Beings series. Raw muscle power and animal energy are just some of the things you experience in the encounter with this monumental work.
-
39 Lynda Benglis, Face Off
Benglis visited Kistefos and became inspired by the landscape and atmosphere of the site, Scandinavian mythology, and folklore. The sculpture can be seen as partly frozen waterfall, partly giant.

47 Magne Furuholmen, The Birthright
Text and letters have always been central as a pictorial element in Furuholmen's work. What happens if you deconstruct sentences, break them down into single words or put them together in new combinations?

49 Ida Ekblad, A DEADLY SLUMBER OF ALL FORCES
Ekblads sculpture is a fascinating hybrid of her artistic practices. The work is a sculptural collage made of fragments from her own paintings.

The work comprises artificial intelligence, 3D-scanned objects, living creatures and organisms, and offers something completely unique in the sculpture park.

51 The Twist Gallery
The Twist is a gallery, a bridge, and a sculpture, all in one. The 1000 square meter building twists into a sculptural form and spans 60 meters across the Randselva river. The building was designed by the Danish star architects BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group and is named as a "must-see" cultural destination by the New York Times, Bloomberg and The Telegraph, among others.
-
52 The wood pulp mill
The production at Kistefos stopped in 1955, but the buildings and machines have been preserved. Several of the machines have been set in motion once again, creating a "living factory" for Kistefos' visitors.

54 The Guardian & Bench by Tatiana Trouvé
The essence of Kistefos is encapsulated in the sculptures, inviting contemplation and reflection. These works allude to the workers’ community which was a defining feature of Kistefos until the mid-1950s, while also mirroring distinctively Norwegian values and ruminating on the universal human experience.
-
55 Tatiana Trouvé, The Guardian & Bech
Essensen av Kistefos er kapslet inn i skulpturene og inviterer til ettertanke og refleksjon. Verkene henspiller på arbeidersamfunnet som preget Kistefos frem til midten av 1950-tallet, men speiler også verdier som er særnorske og som drøfter det universelle ved det å være menneske.

56 Kader Attia, Whistleblower
The artwork consists of six blue glass sculptures placed in the forest south of The Twist.
