Svend Wiig Hansen
Svend Wiig Hansen (20 December 1922 – 15 March 1997) was a Danish sculptor and painter. Biography Wiig Hansen was born in Møgeltønder. He was initially undecided about his career, working as a circus clown and a singer until a job requiring his help in the completion of climbing angels convinced him he should become a sculptor. After studying at the Danish Academy under Johannes Bjerg and Einar Utzon-Frank (1946–1950), his early sculptures included his monumental burnt clay ''Torso'' (1951) inspired by Aristide Maillol and his cement ''Moder Jord'' (Mother Earth, 1953) influenced in part by precolumbian sculpture. The gigantic group sculpture of ''Mennesket ved havet'' ( Men at Sea, (1994) near Esbjerg is inspired by Cycladic art and the figures on Easter Island. ''Slægt løfter slægt'' (1997), which was installed for a period on Gammel Strand in Copenhagen, depicts a naked couple bearing a naked woman.

Utzon's revised design, which he completed in 1961, was the basis for the landmark, although it was not completed until 1973. When the Sydney Opera House was declared a World Heritage Site on 28 June 2007, Utzon became only the second person to have received such recognition for one of his works during his lifetime, after Oscar Niemeyer. Other noteworthy works include Bagsværd Church near Copenhagen and the National Assembly Building in Kuwait. He also made important contributions to housing design, especially with his Kingo Houses near Helsingør.

Esbjerg Performing Arts Centre
The Esbjerg Performing Arts Centre () is a concert hall with theatrical facilities in the centre of Esberg in southwest Jutland, Denmark. Completed in 1997 to designs by the Utzons, it forms part of a complex which also contains the Esbjerg Art Museum. Its two auditoriums host classical concerts and drama productions. Architecture Designed by Jan Utzon in close collaboration with his father Jørn Utzon, the building is located in Esbjerg's City Park next to the Art Museum where it overlooks the harbour and the sea beyond. It nevertheless lacks the usual sophistication of the Utzons, no doubt as Esbjerg Municipality wanted to save on construction costs. Clad with white ceramic tiles, it takes the form of a truncated pyramid housing the main hall which is attached to a spacious foyer with octagonal pillars resembling mushrooms. The foyer provides access to the theatre and concert hall on one side and to the cafeteria and art museum on the other. With seating for over 1,100, the mai ...

Stavanger
Stavanger, officially the Stavanger Municipality, is a city and municipalities of Norway, municipality in Norway. It is the third largest city and third largest metropolitan area in Norway (through conurbation with neighboring Sandnes) and the administrative center of Rogaland county. The municipality is the fourth most populous in Norway. Located on the Stavanger Peninsula in southwest Norway, Stavanger counts its official founding year as 1125, the year the Stavanger Cathedral was completed. Stavanger's core is to a large degree 18th- and 19th-century wooden houses that are protected and considered part of the city's cultural heritage. This has caused the town center and inner city to retain a small-town character with an unusually high ratio of detached houses, and has contributed significantly to spreading the city's population growth to outlying parts of Greater Stavanger. The city's population rapidly grew in the late 20th century due to its oil industry. Stavanger is know ...
