The Tangen Collection - Kunstsilo Museum

Over 30 years Nicolai Tangen has put together one of the largest collections of Nordic modernist art, which is now being administered and made accessible to the public by Kunstsilo.

The collection’smain focus on Nordic modernism makes it exceptional within a global context and it includes paintings, graphics, sculptures, textile works, ceramics, handicrafts, photography and conceptual art.

Unique to the collection is that it goes in depth into the oeuvre of great, well-known artists such as Reidar Aulie, Asger Jorn, Lars-Gunnar Nordström and Anna-Eva Bergman. In addition, important work has been done to collect works from artists who have been passed over by history. A part of the implementation of the strategy behind the collection has been to select a body of works based on Nicolai Tangen’s personal preferences and interests as well aswhat he personally wants to explore in depth.
