  My name is Ulla-Karin Warberg and I am living in the archepelago of Stockholm. Besides my profession as a museum curator I have an assignment to write a biography on a Swedish Art historian and Orientalist who lived around 1900. I am a lecturer at the University of Uppsala, Campus Gotland and Linkoping University, mostly about the creations of museums and collection building, but also about objects per se. I am also a board member at the Swedish Research Institute in Istanbul's Friends Association and at the Stockholm Oriental Carpet Society Pazyryk. I spend a lot of time in Turkey each year, and have been since I was a girl. Today to keep in touch with my network of museum colleagues and friends in Istanbul. Before I became a curator at Nordiska museet I did a lot of travelling as a guide with Art historian groups to Istanbul, Anatolia, Rome, Madrid, Vienna, Bruge and to the TEFAF Art fair in Maastricht, Holland.
