About Høyersten Contemporary 

Høyersten Contemporary is a commercial art gallery in Bergen, founded by Simone and Erlend Aalbæk Høyersten. We solemnly focuses on quality, relevance, integrity, and appeal. Our ambitions are on behalf of our artists, clients, and customers. Bergen city is our base, while the world is our aspiration and workplace.  

 

The gallery presents primarily Nordic and European contemporary art. Our focus is contemporary painting, drawing, and sculpture. Meanwhile, we also aim to present installation, photo, video, and performance. While we mainly present established artists, we always search for new talents and enjoy working with emerging artists.

 

We work in close collaboration with each artist we represent, acting as their connection to the international art scene, to museums and to other galleries, helping with production, guiding careerwise, and of course acting as a public space presenting the artists' works to the general public. As we are both art historians, we strive to support our artists in developing and presenting art of high quality, challenging how we see the world around us.

 

Living with art can be a great pleasure and enrichment, emotionally, socially, and intellectually. But finding the right artist and artworks can sometimes seem incalculable. There is a lot of art, but the quality is highly variable. So how to find the right quality work, and for the right price? How to choose? Høyersten Contemporary offers guidance for businesses or private individuals who are searching for just the right piece of art, or who want to build up a collection of art that reflects who you are or are interested in, or what your business represents. We want to give you guidance, insight and advice, so you can move with confidence and knowledge into the world of art. Erlend G. Aalbæk Høyersten has been a museum director for 18 years, and has in that time been involved in building three different museum collections.

 

Feel free to contact us for a non-binding talk if you have a garden, home or workplace that you can see can become something much more with the right works of art.
