Manifesto

We Are Fotografiska

Our name – Swedish for "photographic" – reflects how we see the world. Photography is the most accessible and influential art form of our time, shaping visual culture far beyond still imagery. We support its constant evolution by showcasing the depth, diversity, and power of the medium.

The Contemporary Museum of Photography, Art & Culture

Fotografiska reimagines what a museum can be. Our exhibitions aren’t silent halls but spaces where we connect, reflect, and converse. From exhibitions to dining, curated shopping, and exceptional events we bring together a city’s cultural life under one roof. Open daily from morning until late, Fotografiska offers a distinctive cultural experience.

Our Mission: Inspiring New Perspectives

We curate with purpose, using photography as a lens to explore the world. Our exhibitions span emerging and established artists with diverse background and artistic practices ranging from solo and group shows to thematic explorations that push boundaries. We showcase bold storytelling, expand the definition of photography, and create experiences that open new ways of seeing.

Our Vision: A More Conscious World

Consciousness begins with awareness—of ourselves, our biases, and the world around us. Through photography, we spark reflection and find meaning in both society’s challenges and its beauty. We believe in the power of photography to bridge divides, foster understanding, and inspire action.

Our Culture: Collaboration, Growth, and Opportunity

Fotografiska is built by people who take initiative, think creatively, and bring ideas to life. We believe in creating environments where people grow through collaboration and learn through action, taking risks, and shaping culture together.

We Are for Everyone

In our museums, online and beyond, Fotografiska always welcomes all.

Values

Curiosity, Confidence, Joyfulness, Inclusion and Entrepreneurship.
