We are happy to announce that Kristina Ketola Bore will join us as Assistant Curator on March 1. Kristina has already worked with us as a guest curator with her ongoing project Mobilizing Citizenship, and we are very excited to be working with her in a full time capacity.

Kristina is a writer, curator and educator from Stavanger who is currently based in Oslo, Norway. She holds an MA in Design Writing Criticism from the University of the Arts London and is a co-founder of the platform The Ventriloquist Summerschool, as well as a subeditor for the art journal Periskop. Her work investigates social structures within and outside of the arts, in addition to participation and the role intersectionality and feminisms can play in the field. These perspectives are also deployed in the act of curation, which has resulted in series of educational artistic programming for both youth and adults.

Our first exhibition in 2019 is HURTS WORST by Amanda Ross-Ho, opening on January 31. This is the first presentation of Ross-Ho's work in Norway. The following shows will be a presentation of new works by Violet Dennison, opening on April 4, and the large-scale solo exhibition HEINZERLING by Yngve Holen, opening on May 16.

Our first event in 2019 will be a performance by Nadine Byrne and PSST (Stefan Tcherepnin and Paul Sigerhall) on February 9.

We look forward to seeing you!
