The newly opened PoMo museum in Trondheim, Norway, is dedicated to enhancing local art access, tackling gender disparity in collections, and enriching the region's cultural landscape. Situated in a renovated historic post office, the museum features works from notable artists and aims to create an inviting atmosphere for all. Founded by collectors Monica and Ole Robert Reitan, PoMo houses diverse art exhibitions, beginning with 'Postcards from the Future.' Designed by India Mahdavi and Erik Langdalen, the spaces are colorful and welcoming to encourage public engagement with contemporary art.
PoMo aims to 'tear down some of the walls between the art world and most people,' fostering an inclusive environment where art is accessible to all.
The inaugural exhibition, 'Postcards from the Future,' draws on the building's history while using postcards as a thematic metaphor to engage visitors.
Architect India Mahdavi emphasizes that the refurbished spaces are colorful and welcoming, designed to make the museum feel less intimidating for visitors.
With a mission to address gender inequality in art collections, PoMo showcases works from renowned artists, enhancing Trondheim's cultural landscape.
