0047 Oslo

General information

Background
0047 is an interdisciplinary platform for research, production, dissemination and debate in the fields of art, architecture and urbanism. Founded 2004 in Berlin, 0047 was originally an exhibition space for contemporary Norwegian art and architecture but soon expanded its scope involving artists, architects, theorists and curators from all over the world. In 2007, 0047 relocated to Oslo.

Independent and critical
0047 is an independent, non-for-profit organization, working complementary to the established institutions. In the past years, 0047 developed a profile with a focus on urban, political and sociological questions, which we aim to further enhance. The distinct emphasis on the politics of space constitutes 0047’s core and identity.

Experimental and interdisciplinary
Through and within our program, comprising exhibitions, lectures, and publications, we explore vital issues in art, architecture and urbanism with the intent of expanding disciplinary boundaries, encouraging co-operations between artists and architects, designers and scientists, urban activists and researchers.

International and local
Above and beyond our international collaborations we are as well developing broad local and regional network activities, implementing projects in the public sphere, in temporary available locations, involving other initiatives and the local neighborhood as much as possible.

0047 is supported by Arts Council Norway.
