Gallery tips for Tromsø
Gallery-going in Tromsø? A few habits help:
- Check for late openings at Krane Galleri & Rammeverksted. Some galleries open late one evening a week. After-work art is an underrated pleasure.
- Take the long way through at Tromsø Kunstforening (Tromsø Centre for Contemporary Art). Galleries reward slow looking. One extra lap always reveals something the first pass missed.
- Small galleries take risks. Artist-run spaces show the work the big institutions won't. Some of it's baffling; some of it's the future.
- Go to opening nights. Free entry, the artists in the room, and a crowd that wants to talk about the work. The best gallery experience there is.
