"Monolithos" marks the artist’s 80th birthday and is a collaboration between Vigelandmuseet and Oslo kommunes kunstsamling. Over the course of six decades, Blystad has established himself as one of Norway’s most significant sculptors, known for monumental works in stone and a distinct approach to the sculptural medium.

The exhibition presents a broad selection of works spanning the artist’s career and highlights Blystad’s engagement with stone, craftsmanship, and form over several decades.

We invite you to join us for the opening in the museum courtyard, including speeches and the official marking of the exhibition. All speaches will be conducted in Norwegian.

The exhibition opening is free and open to all. Welcome!
