Girjegumpi. Sámi Architectural Library

Joar Nango
  • Open until 17:00

The architect and artist Joar Nango has for several years collected books and other materials relevant to Sámi architecture. The title Girjegumpi is derived from two North Sámi words: "Gumpi" is a mobile cabin on runners, most often pulled by a snowmobile. "Girji" means book. The compound word, and the work Girjegumpi, include a library, an archive and the construction in which these are stored and transported.
