Råneå Art Hall, the Råneå Biennial, and Havremagasinet – Three Nodes in the Contemporary Art Network of Norrbotten

Since 2018, the Råneå Biennial has been run by local forces in the small community north of Luleå, where parts of it take place in a former bank building now known as Råneå Art Hall. Artists Linn Lindström and Isak Anshelm talk about the Råneå Cultural Association and the art hall they run. Curators Ana Victoria Bruno, Sixten Liu, Kerstin Möller, Foteini Salvaridi, and Anastasia Shestak offer insight into the work on the next Råneå Biennial, opening 29 August 2026. Havremagasinet’s director Mariangela Mendez Prencke shares the county art hall’s work with both international contemporary art and culturally rooted projects in Boden.

Presented in collaboration with Region Norrbotten’s Resurscentrum för konst.
