Guide to Göteborg's 10 Best Contemporary Art Galleries — theculturetrip.com

Named after of a group of artists who formed a movement in 1954 to campaign against Göteborg’s then conservative and somewhat reserved approach to art, Galleri 54 is an artist-run gallery with an open philosophy. It gives young and non-established artists from all over the world the chance to show their work in a cooperative context where exhibitions are not subject to commercial pressure, There is a strong focus on innovative art forms, such as the 2014 The Seeds of Smoke exhibition in which artist Sven Drobnitza offered a new perspective on ordinary everyday objects, or A Study of Free Fall and Levitation, in which artists Hegard & Ågren explored the question of weightlessness and gravity. Interestingly, Galleri 54 also has a special outdoor feature known as the Peepshow, a mini window gallery hosting various exhibitions and installations.
