Oslo Kunstforening is pleased to welcome you to the opening of Sparebankstiftelsen DNB Grant Exhibition 2024 with Eline Benjaminsen, Margrethe Kolstad Brekke and Nikhil Vettukattil.
“This year’s edition showcases three artists who work with media such as photography, sound, video and textile. In their practices, they explore contemporary issues related to economic perspectives, food production, and utopian strategies – with the climate crisis as a backdrop. We look forward to the exhibition showcasing the work of these three exciting artists.” – Jury leader Ana María Bresciani
The recipient of the grant will be announced during the exhibition period. New as of this year, the recipient will also be offered a studio residency at Edvard Munch’s former studio at Ekely.
This year's grant exhibition will be held at Oslo Kunstforening for the seventeenth time. To date, 20 artists have received grants and 78 artists have participated in the exhibition. Several of today's most renowned artists are former participants in the exhibition, which is met with great interest every year from a wide audience.
