Exhibition Opening! Kristina Bræin: Survival Strategies’

The exhibition are open for public from 13:30.

 

Kristina Bræin: Survival Strategies

19 September 2026 – 3 January 2027

Kristina Bræin (1955–2022) created distinctive installations in which form, colour and everyday materials interact with architecture. Her works are characterised by precise compositions, humour and unexpected juxtapositions, often inspired by details in the exhibition space itself.

Kristina Bræin: Survival Strategies presents works from the collections of Kunstsilo, Kode and Haugar Art Museum, and explores both Bræin’s artistic practice and the challenges of preserving and restaging installation art after the artist’s death.

Bræin represented Norway in the Nordic Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 2003 and participated in Manifesta 7 in Bolzano.

The exhibition is supported by the Anders Jahre Humanitarian Foundation.

Exhibition Opening: Teresa Puig

5 September – 27 September
Collecting Material

Opening: Saturday 5 September, 12:00 PM

Teresa Puig is a Spanish artist living and working in Norway. Her work explores how natural materials change over time, reacting, decomposing and transforming through slow and often invisible processes. Drawing on her background as a laboratory technician in botany, geology, chemistry and anthropology, Puig has developed a strong interest in the behaviour of matter.

In this exhibition, she investigates how flowers, textiles and stone change when wrapped, left to decay and later uncovered. By working with discarded flowers, she places the process itself at the centre, revealing how materials break down, react and leave traces behind. These traces become tangible imprints of a life cycle and demonstrate how change is embedded within the materials themselves.
