MELK
Our interview with Johan Bergström was recently featured on MELK, a non-profit artist run initiative founded by Bjarne Bare and Behzad Farazollahi for the emerging scene of fine art photography in Scandinavia. The aim for the initiative is to raise the awarness of the young scene of fine- art photographers in the region.
Since the project was founded in 2009 the gallery space in central Oslo has hosted 15 solo exhibitions where 12 of theese have been the artists first solo- show in Oslo. Along with the exhibions at the gallery space in central Oslo MELK has been invited to curate two major exhibitions at renowed art institutions in Norway. In the summer of 2011 MELK moves out from the Oslo location and will work temporary without a adress, to focus on curatiorial projects nationwide and international, aswell as on the internet.
