Om/About Akademirommet

Akademirommet photography by István Virág

Located in the back of Kunstnernes Hus and run by the Kunstakademiet since late 2014 Akademirommet is situated in a former professor studio and classroom that has been used by the Academy of Fine Art Oslo from the 1930s-90s. As a space with many doors, Akademirommet invites students to contribute to a future dialogue on exhibiting and to continuously explore methodologies and boundaries. The program encompasses all forms of public presentations, ranging from a constellation of works to performances, interventions, publications, panel discussions, screenings or workshops. By circumventing common reservations about student galleries, it operates as link between generations, temporalities and localities, between local and international communities … Akademirommet is Yours.
