Magasin III, Contemporary art museum in Stockholm, Sweden
Magasin III is an art venue housed in a converted customs warehouse on Stockholm's waterfront with expansive exhibition spaces. The industrial building has been adapted to display contemporary works from international artists in an open, flexible environment.
The institution was founded in 1987 by Swedish art collectors who wanted to support contemporary creation. Over time it expanded its collection and developed programs that allow artists to produce new work directly within its spaces.
The venue serves as a platform where contemporary artists and audiences encounter each other through exhibitions, talks, and educational activities. You can sense how the space brings people together around current artistic questions.
Hours and exhibition programs can change, so check the website before visiting to confirm what is currently open. The spacious warehouse layout makes it easy to move through and see works at your own pace.
Artists often create site-specific installations directly in the warehouse, designing work that responds to the industrial space itself. These projects reveal how contemporary creators interact with and transform the building's architecture and scale.
