TEMPORARY EXHIBITION

The models are on display on the upper floor of the Centre

A National Memorial for 22 July is going to be built in the Government Quarter. The memorial site will be located at Johan Nygaardsvold Square, next to the entrance pavilion of the new 22 July Centre.

To decide who is going to create the memorial and what it will look like, KORO (Public Art Norway) is organizing a competition. Ten selected design proposals have now been narrowed down to three finalists, chosen by an interdisciplinary jury.

Here you can see the final proposals from:

22nd July National Memorial by Raqs Media Collective

A Continuation by Matias Faldbakken

22 July Memorial Grove by Henning Sunde, Hanne Tyrmi og Rainer Stange

As a visitor, you can share your opinions and provide feedback directly to the jury about the proposals.
