With the seasons as its overarching theme, this exhibition showcases a diverse selection of Norwegian Modernism and international contemporary art from the Christen Sveaas Art Foundation.

Henie Onstad Kunstsenter has long been examining private and public collections in Norway through an ongoing exhibition series. Such collections play a pivotal role in shaping the visual arts and museum landscape in Norway, making them essential to highlight and discuss. Featured artists include Anna-Eva Bergman, Ida Ekblad, Howard Hodgkin, Laura Owens, Glenn Ligon and Jakob Weidemann.

Christen Sveaas Art Foundation is a significant force in both Norwegian and international contexts. Founded in October 2019 by Christen Sveaas, the foundation was established following a donation of 800 works from his private collection, built over nearly 40 years. The collection, one of the largest in Norway, is anchored in two main pillars: Norwegian Modernism and international contemporary art.
