Hammarkullen Art Gallery is located in Gothenburg’s only underground tram stop and is run by Kulturhuset Blå Stället in Angered in consultation with the Hammarkullen Art Gallery Association. The association’s board consists of people who work in art/culture and live or have a background in Hammarkullen/Angered. Read more about the Art Gallery here.

The artists selected will receive a fee of SEK 7,700 excluding VAT for a 6-week exhibition. Hammarkullen Art Gallery provides prints on materials suitable for both the lightboxes and the other display cases. If you want to use materials other than those offered, you will bear the costs yourself.

Travel compensation, transport and accommodation up to: SEK 5,000 per exhibitor.

During the process, we invite you to a dialogue regarding the choice of materials and assembly solutions based on the conditions of the site. The jury will decide which of the display cases and surfaces you are assigned, but please describe any wishes regarding this in your application, and if your project can be installed in different ways, please also include this.
