Bergen Kunsthall’s four large exhibition halls form the core of the institution and are one of Norway’s most unique exhibition premises. Designed by architect Ole Landmark in the 1930s with the sole object of exhibiting pictorial artworks, the halls have a unique design. The four halls form a horizontal row of adjacent “white cubes” of different sizes. The clean, straight lines and the open halls combine to provide a flexible arena for artists and curators and provide a beautiful frame for exhibitions, a frame in which the artwork is always the focal point.
Initiated in response to the increasing acceleration of both the production and reception of art, NO.5 provides an opportunity to slow down, focus on, and look again at particular works, exhibitions or fragments of exhibitions. Bergen Kunsthall will commission a new critical text to accompany each of these re-presentations.
