Fotografihuset is a public art space for camera-based art

Critical to Fotografihuset’s objective is to explore the wide-ranging role photographic language has in our everyday understanding of the world, as a professional tool, an art form and as an ordinary means of expression. Fotografihuset exhibits Norwegian and international camera-based artists with the goal of addressing fundamental questions about the possibilities and challenges of photography to inform reality, construct personal and political identity, determine history, and conceptualize nature. 

Organisation

Fotografiuset was established on 28 November 2022 as a foundation: Stiftelsen Fotografihuset.
The organization number for the new foundation is 930 542 881.

The aim of the foundation is to promote the general understanding and commitment to photography as a medium for socially relevant questions and issues, freedom of expression, cultural dissemination, cultural preservation and artistic expression. The foundation shall promote knowledge, commitment and understanding of photography as a socially useful and enlightening form of communication. The foundation is a general foundation that does not have commercial activity as its purpose. The foundation’s purpose is to be fulfilled by establishing, running and further developing Norway’s new international center for photography in Oslo, by exhibiting Norwegian and international camera-based artists to a wide audience.
