2025 has unfolded through concrete shifts in how we work, gather, and sustain artistic practice. Across exhibitions, public programmes, and collaborations, the year has been marked by an increased attention to process, shared responsibility, and long-term thinking often under conditions that require patience, negotiation, and care.

Fotogalleriet’s programme has been shaped through ongoing dialogue with artists, curators, researchers, and communities. The institution’s work this year reflects a commitment to collective methods, research-based practice, and forms of knowledge production that extend beyond the exhibition format.

The Fotogalleriet staff would like to extend our sincere thanks to all artists, curators, partners, and collaborators who contributed to the institution’s activities throughout 2025:
