Photography exhibitions at the Fotografiska
On an exhibition area of around 2,500 square metres, spread over two floors of the large brick building, the Fotografiska organises around 20 – 25 exhibitions of works by various national and international photographers and photo artists over the course of the year. Usually four major main exhibitions alternate, accompanied by about 20 smaller photo exhibitions.
The Fotografiska sees itself as an ambassador for the art of photography and as an international platform for the exchange and dissemination of the almost infinite possibilities of expression offered by photography. In addition to the exhibitions, Fotografiska regularly offers various lectures, workshops and classes for professional photographers as well as for amateur photographers and beginners.
