Galleri Trafo is located in Asker, right outside Oslo, Norway. The gallery opened in August 2006, situated right next to the railway station. The building was constructed in 1924 to house the transformator which supplied the railway from Oslo to the southern part of Norway with power.

The dimensions of the rooms of the old factory-like building gave great possibilities when rebuilding it to a contemporary art gallery. The ground floor houses the two largest rooms; each 6 meters wide and 18 meters long, almost 6 meters tall. One is used for reception and showroom for graphic works, the other as a Kunsthalle. The first floor contains 4 large exhibition rooms and a showroom for works of the gallery’s artists.

On the second floor you will find two rooms housing a part of Asker Kommunes own art collection and on the top, in the tower, a newly opened project room will show some of our finest young artists.

The exhibitions shown in the Kunsthalle (ground floor), the Gallery (first floor) and the Project room in the tower changes every month. In addition to separate shows with some of the top Norwegian and international artists, the gallery will at all times have works by most of the artists that have exhibited in the past.

Visit the archive of the Gallery or the Kunsthalle to view the earlier exhibitions or visit the Artist page to view works by our artists.
