So apparently the owner goes around in a car with the logo of this place painted on it, and shout at random tourists on the island because she thinks they infringed on her privacy. She acts and drives erratically while shouting out of the window of her car... basically acting like an entitled, spoilt, rude old woman that thinks she is some kind of social justice warrior.
The owner reflects how this place is run - entitled, self-righteous and rude.

Great use of a former industrial building in a beautiful remote sea village of Henningsvaer. The current exhibit features the work of 31 female artists from across the globe. Well worth a visit to Kavi and the village beyond

Using the old kaviar factory as an art gallery has turned out to be perfect. The old structures of the buildings are kept, but it also works very well as a gallery of modern art.

Interesting exhibitions of contemporary art in an old caviar factory, beautifully renovated - and with a stunning view! Henningsvaer itself is also worth a visit - pittoresque fishers village with vibrant history.

A refreshing modern art diversion from all the typical area seafaring art. Also some great views of the water form the upper gallery and a fun gift shop.

Enjoyable exhibition with artists from all around the world. Nice theme of "painting or not". Located in the former caviar factory.

This is really an exceptional place. Because of its unique art collection, the building itself and the landscape around. Top modern work!

This is an interesting small art exhibition in a fantastic building.
It had a few interesting pieces, exhibited on 2 floors. The entrance was 100 NOK per person. If you don't want to see the exhibition or pay the entrance fee, I would
still recommend stopping by and visiting the gift shop, it had some of the best and high quality gifts on Lofoten and in hindsight I regret not shopping more there.

The artists represented are more of-the-moment than one might first think. No wonder this space generates buzz. Provocative and important works. I stood and listened rapt as owner Wenche H explained some of the current pieces on view and their creators.

The same as the Museum in A. Closed without further notice. No time schedule at the door. No information
