Art, architecture, history and a nice place to explore and visit also our café at Wergelandshaugen

Every visit to the Wergelandshaugen Art Center should include a walk in the ravine landscape and experience the sculpture park with the historic garden.

The sculptures appear as moments of surprise placed in the scenic surroundings of the ravine landscape.

The historic garden has been restored to the 1920s, according to photographs and with period plants.

Among the artists you will experience in the park are Jim Darbu, Nils Martin, Annicken Thrane-Steen and Ole Fredrik Hvidsten.

Jim Darbu "Sunset", 2022 "For a long time I have been drawing figures with more arms and legs than is usual for a human, I guess you could say that I have found inspiration from the world of insects. Like a thunder devil lying on its back on a late summer's day I have made a creature that lies on its back and gropes for its existence.

"Jim Darbu "Into thin air", 2022 For many years I have dealt with figures that melt or disintegrate in various ways. The sculpture that is now on display in the ravine forest is also part of this theme. The idea has been to create a being that dissolves in many ways, but cancels the force of gravity, and rather disappears into the clouds rather than falling to the ground.

Nils Martin "BACKFOOT BOYS", 2022 "Backfoot Boys" shows two Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle-like figures who have taken up residence in, for example, Bigfoot's left behind shoes. The title "Backfoot Boys" alludes to the fact that they are either on their heels and taking it cool or that they are behind, lagging behind.

Annicken Thrane-Steen "On forgiveness", 2018 On forgiveness is an old term for forgiveness, regret or apology as one would say today. The term also means pray, fine, fine, pay and expiate.

The historical word points to the Tingkirken where the Eidsivatinget was located in the Middle Ages.

Ole Fredrik Hvidsten "Håndlangeren's daughter", 2022 "One hand spreads over another and stops the movements that have begun.

If you walk the Pilgrim path past Eidsvoll Church, you’ll find Wergelandshaugen down the sunken lane.

Here you can explore outdoor art, a café, uniqu accomodation in the Culture Hub.

The guided tours at Wergelandshaugen are based around the diverse cultural history of the area, and the architecture and history of the house itself.
