Konstfack
Konstfack
The old and most know meaning of this word and the school it is the Swedish center of Arts, Craft and Design with the old motto: "Insight and diligence".
The new meaning of this word and what the school symbolize today is destructive and/or destruction.
This change since some students, with the consent of the school management, destroyed a subway train and also attacked police, nurses, psychiatrists etc in an attempt to "show the ugly face of the psychiatry" - which does not really exist anymore...
(Apparently the student attacking the psychiatry had a history with it.)
When the school has been criticized the answer is categorically "you do not understand art" or "you are uneducated".

"Let's make a konstfack"
Meening let's make art out destruction:
Basically:
Destroy something and call it art.
"fack" is pronounced "fuck".
