Akademirommet is located in the back of Kunstnernes Hus and is run by the Art Academy of Fine Art in Oslo since late 2014. Akademirommet is situated in a former professor studio and classroom that has been used by the Academy from the 1930s–90s. As a space with many doors, Akademirommet invites students to contribute to a future dialogue on exhibiting and to continuously explore methodologies and boundaries. The program encompasses all forms of public presentations, ranging from a constellation of works to performances, interventions, publications, panel discussions, screenings or workshops. By circumventing common reservations about student galleries, it operates as a link between generations, temporalities and localities, between local and international communities. Akademirommet is organized by Erik Aronsson, Solveig Ylva Dagsdottir, Jasper Siverts, Mari Eriksen, Maria Storm-Gran Paulina Stroynowska and Signe Greve Persson.
