Kunsthall Stavanger

Kunsthall Stavanger is a leading space for contemporary art, committed to fostering bold artistic experimentation, critical discourse, and meaningful encounters. Since its founding in 2013, the Kunsthall has emerged as a vital site for contemporary artistic production and mediation. Our trailblazing program includes both Norwegian and international artists, and encompasses exhibitions, artwork commissions, public programs, and initiatives for children and youth. With a program that embraces diverse voices and urgent cultural debates, the Kunsthall operates as a crucial platform for critical artistic and curatorial inquiry.

Firmly rooted in our local context and in active dialogue with global conversations, Kunsthall Stavanger’s commitment to artist-centered programming ensures that we remain a responsive, forward-thinking institution. We support artists at pivotal moments in their careers while fostering meaningful connections between art and society.

Guided by curiosity and criticality, we cultivate a welcoming space where contemporary art serves as a catalyst for transformation. Our combination of playfulness and intellectual rigor invites audiences not merely to observe but to engage—leaving our space with fresh perspectives and a renewed sense of inspiration.
