Touring exhibition: Under 40

2014–2017

The exhibition “Under 40. Young Norwegian architecture” presented a selection of architects under the age of forty and their fields of interest, methods and creations. Who are these architects and what are their concerns? Do they differ significantly from their predecessors or from the so-called post-Fehn generation? How do these young architects relate to traditional Norwegian architecture and to international social and political trends? And to what extent will they define the architecture of the future?

After being exhibited at The National Museum – Architecture 3 May 2013–22 September 2013, the exhibition was developed into a travelling version, touring to various museums and galleries throughout Norway from 2014 to 2017. The touring exhibition has been visited by approximately 40.000 people.
