Founded as a gallery in 2015, WILLAS contemporary is dedicated to showcasing innovative contemporary photography that challenges perceptions and sparks meaningful conversations. Our journey began in 2006 with curated pop-up exhibitions featuring many of the artists we still work with today. Our mission is to support and promote artists who push the boundaries of photography, creativity and expression. We provide a platform for both emerging and established artists to present their work in an environment that encourages dialogue and exploration.
WILLAS contemporary was founded by Ellen K Willas, with a vision to create dynamic encounters for artists, art lovers, and collectors. With a background in international finance, Ellen has dedicated her career to supporting artists and bringing their visions to life. Our main space, located in the historic Tändstickspalatset in the heart of Stockholm, offers a versatile setting for exhibitions and events. The Oslo showroom, situated in the CBD and open by appointment only, provides an intimate environment for private viewings. We also collaborate with a broad range of museums and art spaces internationally.
