The unique, open floorplan reflects the city\u2019s view that art should be accessible to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">Since its opening in 1975, Malm\u00f6 Konsthall has presented contemporary art that challenges and inspires. Three to four exhibitions are presented each year, featuring international and local artists whose works engage with the world we live in today. The 2,000 square metre exhibition space is a blank canvas that transforms with every new exhibition. The wide range of artistic practices shown over the years has shaped Malm\u00f6 Konsthall into a space in ongoing dialogue with its time. Admission is always free.&#13;\n&#13;\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">We believe that art is always part of a bigger conversation. This is something that we aim to work with across all platforms, not only through exhibitions but also in our pioneering educational and events programme where we are able to situate what we do within a larger cultural context. Our work often extends to spaces outside of our premises in Malm\u00f6 and is driven by genuine, long-term collaboration with communities and organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">We prioritise working directly with Malm\u00f6 and its residents in a variety of ways and aim to balance our work in the city with our regional and international outreach. Malm\u00f6 Konsthall is part of the Department of Culture of the City of Malm\u00f6. Here you can find out more of what Malm\u00f6\u2019s cultural sector has to offer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-malmo-konsthall-accordion block-accordion-container active\"><button class=\"block-accordion\" type=\"button\" onclick=\"handleAccordianClick(this)\" aria-controls=\"accordion_content_519e4790-acc0-4a3e-a63f-c3f3a1670d2c-1729516724959\" aria-expanded=\"false\" id=\"accordion_content-container_519e4790-acc0-4a3e-a63f-c3f3a1670d2c-1729516724959\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"accordion__title\">An organic institution<\/span><svg width=\"14\" height=\"14\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 14\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"accordion__icon acc_plus\"><path d=\"M14 8H8H6H0V6H6H8H14V8Z\" fill=\"black\" class=\"stroke\"><\/path><path d=\"M6 14L6 8L6 6L6 -8.74228e-08L8 0L8 6L8 8L8 14L6 14Z\" fill=\"black\" class=\"stroke-minus\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><div class=\"accordion__content\" role=\"region\" id=\"accordion_content_519e4790-acc0-4a3e-a63f-c3f3a1670d2c-1729516724959\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion_content-container_519e4790-acc0-4a3e-a63f-c3f3a1670d2c-1729516724959\"><div class=\"accordion__text\">\n<p>Since its opening in 1975, Malm\u00f6 Konsthall has brought many major international artists to Malm\u00f6.

There had been plans of opening a public art gallery in Malm\u00f6 since the late 19th century, and in 1931, members of Sk\u00e5nes Konstf\u00f6rening established a foundation to further this cause. They organised a raffle, and they intended to use the resulting profits to construct a public art space. These plans, however, were never realised. However, the social climate in the 1960s and early 1970s encouraged local politicians to approve funding for a konsthall, and it was announced that the city would take submissions from architects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">When Malm\u00f6 Konsthall opened its doors to its very first visitors in March 1975, there were two exhibitions on show: a large solo exhibition of works by Edvard Munch\u2013including the famous &#8220;The Scream&#8221;, &#8220;Anxiety&#8221; and &#8220;Madonna&#8221;, and a group exhibition featuring contemporary artists titled &#8220;\u00d6gon-Blickar\/New Media 1&#8221;. These exhibitions were followed soon after by a Vincent Van Gogh exhibition. As the coming years would demonstrate, an institution of this relatively modest size will always find it challenging to produce such prestigious exhibitions consistently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-default\">Malm\u00f6 Konsthall has many times been the first to show artists who have later gone on to be hugely influential. Listed among the participating artists in the first exhibition from 1975, &#8220;\u00d6gon-Blickar\/New Media 1&#8221;, were names like John Baldessari, Bernhard and Hilla Becher, Annette Messager, Edward Ruscha and Katharina Sieverding\u2013all of whom have since produced bodies of work that have won increasing international recognition. Malm\u00f6 Konsthall has always worked with local, regional, and international artists alike, and historically the emphasis and character of the work shown has varied with new each director.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-malmo-konsthall-accordion block-accordion-container active\"><button class=\"block-accordion\" type=\"button\" onclick=\"handleAccordianClick(this)\" aria-controls=\"accordion_content_aaa3c5d0-01d5-4ebc-8a4b-64e036c12c97-1730969378703\" aria-expanded=\"false\" id=\"accordion_content-container_aaa3c5d0-01d5-4ebc-8a4b-64e036c12c97-1730969378703\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"accordion__title\">Architecture<\/span><svg width=\"14\" height=\"14\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 14\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"accordion__icon acc_plus\"><path d=\"M14 8H8H6H0V6H6H8H14V8Z\" fill=\"black\" class=\"stroke\"><\/path><path d=\"M6 14L6 8L6 6L6 -8.74228e-08L8 0L8 6L8 8L8 14L6 14Z\" fill=\"black\" class=\"stroke-minus\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><div class=\"accordion__content\" role=\"region\" id=\"accordion_content_aaa3c5d0-01d5-4ebc-8a4b-64e036c12c97-1730969378703\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion_content-container_aaa3c5d0-01d5-4ebc-8a4b-64e036c12c97-1730969378703\"><div class=\"accordion__text\">\n<p>The architect Klas Anshelm won the competition to design Malm\u00f6 Konsthall. He had established his architecture office in Lund in 1947 and had previously gained attention for the buildings he designed for Lund University and Lund Art Hall, which was inaugurated in 1958.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding Malm\u00f6 Konsthall, Anshelm said: &#8220;I think it\u2019s important to enter directly into an art hall. As soon as you step through the front door, you should be standing among the art. I want it to be possible to hammer nails into the floor and walls without causing any damage.&#8221; The flexibility of the exhibition space\u2014essentially just a white box\u2014has been highly appreciated by exhibiting artists over the years: nearly all spatial ideas can be realized. For the 1961 Venice Biennale, Anshelm was one of three architects invited to design the Nordic Pavilion. Although he didn\u2019t get the commission, the idea he had for admitting light through the ceiling stayed with him and was realized at Malm\u00f6 Konsthall. The 550 skylights still intrigue architecture students who visit the Art Hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1994, the renovated art hall was inaugurated. Architect Jan Holmgren from White Arkitekter had designed the refurbishment and extension between the exhibition hall and the old Hantverkshuset from 1915. The reception, caf\u00e9, and auditorium were moved out of the hall and placed in what we now call &#8220;The Middle Room.&#8221; The exhibition space became larger, and the other functions improved. The interior design of the caf\u00e9\/restaurant and the bookstore\/reception was created by furniture designer \u00c5ke Axelsson.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-malmo-konsthall-accordion block-accordion-container active\"><button class=\"block-accordion\" type=\"button\" onclick=\"handleAccordianClick(this)\" aria-controls=\"accordion_content_1564e9a4-386d-4523-bf13-a7617b916a04-1730969379559\" aria-expanded=\"false\" id=\"accordion_content-container_1564e9a4-386d-4523-bf13-a7617b916a04-1730969379559\" tabindex=\"0\"><span class=\"accordion__title\">Did you know that&#8230;<\/span><svg width=\"14\" height=\"14\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 14\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"accordion__icon acc_plus\"><path d=\"M14 8H8H6H0V6H6H8H14V8Z\" fill=\"black\" class=\"stroke\"><\/path><path d=\"M6 14L6 8L6 6L6 -8.74228e-08L8 0L8 6L8 8L8 14L6 14Z\" fill=\"black\" class=\"stroke-minus\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><div class=\"accordion__content\" role=\"region\" id=\"accordion_content_1564e9a4-386d-4523-bf13-a7617b916a04-1730969379559\" tabindex=\"0\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion_content-container_1564e9a4-386d-4523-bf13-a7617b916a04-1730969379559\"><div class=\"accordion__text\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>&#8230; the proceeds from the merchandise lottery organized by the Malm\u00f6 Konsthall Foundation in 1931 have led to the foundation awarding an annual stipend to a currently active artist with ties to Malm\u00f6 since 1997.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230; the greenery on Malm\u00f6 Konsthall\u2019s concrete wall along Munkgatan is wild ivy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230; the floor inside Malm\u00f6 Konsthall\u2019s exhibition hall is made of two-inch rough-sawn pine (almost 5 cm).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230; White Arkitekter, in addition to Malm\u00f6 Konsthall&#8217;s Middle Room, is also behind the large piazza (Konsthallstorget and St Johannesplan) located in front of Malm\u00f6 Konsthall since 2014, between St Johannes Church and Pildammsv\u00e4gen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230; \u00c5ke Axelsson has also created environments and designed furniture for places such as the Royal Armoury, the restaurant at the Moderna Museet, the Swedish Parliament Library in Stockholm, the Maritime Museum in Karlskrona, and the V\u00e4rmland Museum in Karlstad.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230; Malm\u00f6 Konsthall is not involved in the acquisition and placement of the large three-part sculpture by Tony Cragg, which was inaugurated in 2017 at Konsthallstorget. However, in 2001, Malm\u00f6 Konsthall held a major retrospective exhibition with the artist.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&#8230; Hantverkshuset, which has an entrance directly into the Art Hall&#8217;s caf\u00e9 &amp; restaurant, houses an auditorium, a children\u2019s workshop, a framing workshop, and the office. In the early 20th century, it was a so-called &#8220;widow&#8217;s house&#8221; for the wives of craftsmen who had passed away and who, without their own income, had the opportunity to receive a small apartment. One such apartment was located in the inner room of Malm\u00f6 Konsthall\u2019s bookstore, with a kitchen window facing what is now the reception desk.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
