In the Ullern district of Oslo, easily accessible by bus, tram and train, is the place that became the permanent residence of the artist Edvard Munch for the last twenty-eight years of his life, until his death in 1944.

Today the property is the site of Munch’s Vinteratelier, the artist’s large Winter Studio, designed by two architects who, in their day, were among the most renowned in Norway. The original building (1919–20) was the work of Arnstein Arneberg. Ten years later (1928–29), it was restructured according to drawings by Henrik Bull.

The studio is used year round by professional artists who can rent the space on a monthly basis.

Although the studio’s indoor spaces are closed to the public, you are welcome to visit the property, if only to sit for a while on a bench under the fruit trees in Munch’s garden, and to imagine Munch himself standing at his easel painting the scene.

The property is also home to the Ekely artists’ colony – 44 units with studio and living space for artists, designed by the famous Norwegian Modernist architects Jens and Wenche Selmer.
