Rooseum, Contemporary art center in Old Town, Malmö, Sweden
The Rooseum occupied a former power station built in 1900, featuring high ceilings and industrial architecture at Gasverksgatan 22 in central Malmö.
Fredrik Roos established the Rooseum in 1988 as a privately owned exhibition hall, which operated for nearly two decades until its closure in 2006.
Under director Lars Nittve, the center gained recognition for presenting Nordic and international contemporary art through exhibitions and educational programs.
The building now houses Moderna Museet Malmö, which continues the tradition of displaying contemporary art exhibitions and maintaining a permanent collection.
Charles Esche's directorship in 2000 transformed the institution by introducing experimental approaches to art presentation through combined exhibitions and seminars.
