Bergen Assembly

As we step into 2026, we’re looking back at some moments and projects from Bergen Assembly this past autumn - starting with a look black at 𝘢𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴, 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩, 𝘯𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘣𝘺 at Bergen Kunsthall.

Here, you can explore works by Gruppe 66, Ánddir Ivvár Ivvár / Iver Jåks, Marcus Coates, Clara Hastrup, Karen Werner, Sajan Mani, Vikrant Bhise, AgriForum, Kåre Aleksander Grundvåg, Matskogen and GramArt Project, Karan Shrestha, and Singing Wells.

Brought together at Bergen Kunsthall, these varied practices create a shared space for revisiting collective experiments, centring marginalised forms of knowledge, and fostering care, dialogue, and responses to urgent social and ecological questions.

As wrote in her review for “At Bergen Kunsthall, founded in 1838, the walls pulse with gestures of resistance, memory, and collective becoming. The space unfolds like a palimpsest of movement—across borders, histories, and urgencies—centering experiments in anti-colonial thought and radical togetherness.”

We also extend our sincere thanks to for generously lending works and sharing expertise on Gruppe 66, and to curatorial advisor for his invaluable contribution. Our gratitude also goes to .no, (UiT), and the Iver Jåks Archive in Tromsø for the loan of works by Ánddir Ivvár Ivvár / Iver Jåks. Finally, we warmly thank and for the collaboration on 𝘚𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘤 𝘐𝘯𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘴 together with .wells.
