Founded in 2023 by Ane Midtun Dowling and Benjamin J. Dowling, Midtun Dowling Gallery seeks to create dialogue, new perspectives and lasting experiences through carfully curated exhibitions- and a curatorial vision that challenges established norms.
Located at Nordnes in the heart of Bergen, the private art gallery has established itself as a distinctive and independent presence within the city’s art scene, with a strong commitment to originality, craftsmanship, and artistic integrity.
The gallery is known for its broad, cross-genre approach, presenting a carefully curated programme of both national and international artists. Guided by a clear principle—talent not trend—the gallery explores a wide spectrum of artistic expressions. Through deliberate juxtaposition of contrasting practices, it seeks to create dialogue, generate new perspectives, and contribute to the contemporary art field by providing exhibitions of quality and by presenting artists whose practices enrich and extend the local and international art discourse.
Through its network, the gallery connects artists, audiences, collectors, and institutions at both national and international levels.
