Sweden - The Future (Late 80s version thereof)

Simon StÃ¥lenhag has a series of paintings that he has done of the Sweden of the future, as perceived in the 80s.  Its all deeply inspired by the sci-fi of the time, and is eerily familiar - both from a Star-Warsian perspective, and from a "this is what the world is really like" perspective.
Exhibit A below - the pit-stop :-)

There is a whole bunch more in this vein.  The kids playing in the snow

or the scummy pond

its haunting, and eerily familiar.
Go check out his site for more examples, and maybe, buy something...
