Promotional poster for Bergen Kunsthall's April 2025 exhibition.

Join us for a very important Emergency Staff Meeting — open to the public for transparency, accountability, and because someone forgot to book a private room.

This semi-fictional gathering will feature an open floor discussion regarding “recent developments” within the kunsthall’s coffee policy, unofficial seating arrangements, and the limits of hospitality within institutional art spaces.


Topics include:

  • “Who took the espresso machine and why?”

  • “Are folding chairs art if no one sits in them?”

  • “The aesthetics of passive-aggressive signage”

  • “How to file a complaint about filing complaints”

Special Guests (may not attend):

  • Dr. Katrine Hjelde (via empty chair)

  • A representative from Facilities (name withheld)

  • The ghost of relational aesthetics
