A gallery built for slow looking.

Pallowmere Gallery opened in a converted printing house on Södermalm in 1998, founded by Elin Pallowmere on a simple premise: that art needs rooms with good light, labels you can finish, and all the time in the world.

Twenty-eight years later the premise hasn’t changed. We represent twenty-four artists, mount six to eight exhibitions a year across Stockholm and Oslo, and still open the doors an hour early on the first Sunday of every show — one work, one bench, no hurry.

Alongside the exhibitions we run a residency house in Norrtälje, an in-house publishing desk, and a public programme of talks, walkthroughs and reading groups. Everything is free to enter, and almost everything is free to join.
