The Western Norway Exhibition (Norwegian: Vestlandsutstillingen) is an annual exhibition for visual artists from Western Norway. It is generally a touring exhibition held in various places in Western Norway. Artists associated with the region are eligible to take part.[1]
The Western Norway Exhibition has been an important venue for artists from the region ever since it started in 1922.[1][2][3] The exhibition is a cooperative effort between the Kube Art Museum in Ålesund, the Kabuso Art Gallery in Øystese, the Sunnfjord Art Association in Førde, the Haugesund Art Gallery, and the Stavanger Art Association.[2] Financial support is provided by the counties of Rogaland, Hordaland, Sogn og Fjordane, and Møre og Romsdal,[3] as well as the Arts Council of Norway.
In addition to the Western Norway Exhibition, there are four other annual regional art exhibitions: the Eastern Norway Exhibition (Østlandsutstillingen), the Southern Norway Exhibition (Sørlandsutstillingen), the Central Norway Exhibition (Den midtnorske kunstutstilling), and the Northern Norway Exhibition (Den Nord-Norske Kunstutstilling). The exhibitions vary in how they are organized.
