Welcome to the art collection and other visual experiences!

These pages provide information about the art collection, architecture and gardens of the University of Bergen. The many pictures, sculptures, plants and buildings on campus are part of the everyday environment of thousands of students and staff. But do we really see them? With uib.no/arts we wish to make available information about the visual experiences at the university. The website also presents the Aesthetic Committee, which is responsible for the visual expression in the university environment. In the menu Experience can be found links to other picture collections and exhibitions at the University of Bergen.

    Marius Engh: The living are governed by the dead

    On January 12th a new art project was unveiled in the lobby of the HF building. The key word is "fragmented." Humanities researchers work with fragments of various kinds: texts, artifacts and linguistic phenomena. These fragments get new life and a new history through scientific concepts and methods. They become a part of life in our own time.
