2023 has, like many years before it, felt unprecedented in ways we could not imagine, and the importance of community, solidarity, and demanding and holding space for artistic freedom of expression, critical thinking, research, and discussion is as important as ever to contribute to a safe and equal society, regionally and globally.

We at Fotogalleriet consider ourselves fortunate to be part of several networks and to serve many communities, artistic and otherwise, for whom we would like to express our deep appreciation.

The Fotogalleriet staff would like to thank all our artistic, curatorial, and other collaborators in 2023:
