The history of architecture is the story of how practical problems are solved while at the same time the aim has been to create structures that are beautiful and meaningful. This is an exhibition of important monumental works and of our everyday surroundings. It tells of forces that have influenced development and the ways in which architecture and the development of society are intertwined. A good survey including architecture by the Pritzker Prize winning architect Sverre Fehn and many other outstanding Norwegian architects.
