Skånes
konstförening

Skånes konstförening is a contemporary art space for exhibitions, events and pedagogy in the Södra Sofielund neighbourhood in Malmö, Sweden.

The organisations's program is interlaced through several threads. The first one is our curated exhibition program. The second one is our events, such as talks, releases, concerts, dance and performance. The third thread is pedagogy and neighborhood focused projects through engagement and collaboration with the public living and working in our local area. In addition, Skånes konstförening participates in contexts, initiates projects and implement programs with a regional focus.

The association was founded in 1904 by members of Skånska konstnärslaget and has since then had a prominent position in the art scene of the city and the region. The program is run as a non-profit art association, and the daily work is carried out by the regular staff made up of a curator, director, pedagogue and communicator, as well as hosts and technicians employed on an hourly basis. These are employed by the board of Skånes konstförening.

With the program, Skånes konstförening is creating a meeting place where we, together with artists, cultural workers, participants, and audiences, explore crucial artistic and social questions of our time.
