Fotogalleriet is a publicly funded foundation located in the center of Oslo and the oldest institution for photography as a critical art practice in the Nordic region. Founded in 1977 by a group of cultural workers for hothousing cutting-edge photographic practices, Fotogalleriet has since been dedicated to exhibiting local and international art practices, and analysing the rapidly expanding nature of a field unrestricted by technological and aesthetic shifts. Through its commitment to research and engagement with artists, Fotogalleriet is a leading institution within the field of image making. The Norwegian Royal Ministry of Culture provides Fotogalleriet’s principal operating support; additional operational funding comes from the Norwegian Photographic Fund (Nofofo), and in part, from the Oslo Municipality.
