@2050.plus has designed Søylerommet – The Pillars room, a permanent exhibition space within the new National Museum in Oslo (@nationalmuseet) which opened its doors to the public on June 11th. The room will host temporary shows with artworks from the Fredriksen Family Collection – with the first exhibit featuring works by female artists only. Challenging the distinctive neutrality of a white box, 2050+’s design of Søylerommet – The Pillars leans towards the idea of “a tool”: a fully equipped space, capable of supporting a variety of cultural practices. Resembling an experimental theatre, the newly-designed space will act as a testing ground for new exhibition formats and curatorial strategies, constantly morphing and adapting its identity in a productive and stimulating dialogue with Norway's new National Museum. • Project team @2050.plus (@ugulli, @fralantieri, @ippopeste, @massimotnn) #2050plus #nasjonalmuseet #oslo #museum #contemporaryart #architecture #thepillars #søylerommet
