Fredric Holst & Arjumand Carlstein

CG Gallery is an independent non-profit art gallery founded by Arjumand Carlstein and Lina Gasparaviciute. Since its inception in 2019, CG Gallery has focused on the intersection between contemporary art and craft. We mainly collaborate with emerging and mid-career Swedish artists. The steppingstone for this venture is our hometown Malmö, Sweden but as a nomadic art gallery, we have no set location. Hence we explore and activate different empty spaces in the city.

Reaching out to new audiences is a priority. In that respect, one of our most challenging missions is to make the notion of contemporary art less elitistic and intimidating. After all, the exhibitions are curated to be experienced by You. As a gallery we will also gladly assist you in finding a unique work of art that truly speaks to you.

As of January 2023, Arjumand Carlstein will continue managing CG (Circumstantial Gap), joined by gallery partner Fredric Holst. Our plan is to increase the number of curated group exhibitions and to further develop the concept of a hybrid gallery while staying true to our core values. We take art seriously without taking ourselves too seriously.

Last but not least, we are constantly on the look-out for new collabs. Do not hesitate to contact hello [@] cggallery.se
