It will be all the same a hundred years hence?
In this photo exhibition, we go back in time to 1924, when Sagene was the most prominent industrial area in Oslo. What buildings, streets and motifs are left to remind us of this today? And what will still be left to tell the story one hundred years from now?
Touring exhibition
13 June 2024–spring 2025
A hundred years ago, at the beginning of the 1920s, Sagene was the most important industrial area in Oslo. Here, along the Akerselva river, industry grew rapidly, factories were established, and workers settled in housing nearby. If we walk around this area today, which traces of this history are still visible?
In this photo exhibition, older photographs from 100 years ago are mirrored with motifs from the same place in the year 2024. What has been preserved and what has disappeared? And what motifs do present Sagene residents think will be photographed in 2124? The motifs for the exhibition are selected in collaboration with the future residents - children and young people in the area.
The exhibition is an outdoor touring exhibition that will be shown at various locations in the Sagene area.
Current exhibition site: Vøienvolden
The exhibition is part of this year's city jubilee, and is a collaboration between Bydel Sagene, Sagene Torshov historielag and the Museum of Oslo.
