Galleri F 15, Contemporary art museum in Alby gård, Norway
Galleri F 15 is a contemporary art museum housed within a 19th-century manor at Alby gård, displaying works by Norwegian and international artists in rotating exhibitions. The gallery spaces occupy multiple rooms throughout the house, with collections changing seasonally.
Lars Brandstrup founded the gallery in 1966, transforming the country estate into a venue for contemporary art in Norway. The manor itself dates to the 1800s and was repurposed to serve this artistic mission.
The gallery showcases Nordic craft and regional artistic movements through ongoing exhibitions that reflect contemporary practice in the region. Its rooms create a conversation between modern artworks and the historic manor setting.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday and can be explored on foot as all exhibition spaces are within the same building. Visitors should allow time to walk through the different rooms and notice the house's original architecture.
The manor overlooks the Oslofjord, combining art viewing with views of the southern Norwegian landscape. This location adds a natural element that extends beyond typical museum visits.
