When touring Denmark we try to see as many galleries, exhibitions and museums as possible. We like to share our adventures with the visitors of this site.The owners and artists of the galleries have not been asked what they would like to be said about them. The reviews and comments simply cover our own opinions.

Galleri Munken
Galleri Munken [munken = the monk] is a gallery of modern art in a former small holding. The former stable serves as workshop and exhibition and the former barn and a new-added building make a big and beautiful room of about 250 square metres. Art all over. 12 artists are in stock and the gallery has various exhibitions and events. Very nice homepage with lots of information.

Dronninglund Kunstcenter
Dronninglund Kunstcenter [Dronninglund Art Centre] has an interesting story. It was built in the 1970's and has ran only for a few years before it was closed down. The organisation Tvind owned the place for almost 15 years and used it for internal purposes until 2001 when citizens of Dronninglund raised the funds to buy it back and opened a museum of contemporary art.

The building itself is interesting reminding you of Utzon's Sydney Opera House. Inside, the facilities are perfect for art exhibitions and lots of exiting things hang on the walls. Various exhibitions, items for sale. A small entry fee is to be paid.

Galleri Frøsig
The ceramists Irene and Per Frøsig have a well earned reputation for renewing and bringing about the ceramic art.
They make - some times even very large - unique works themselves but also have other artists' works on display and for sale.
