NILS AAS ARTWORKSHOP
A creative and vibrant environment!

Nils Aas Art Workshop is located in the town centre of idyllic Straumen in Inderøy, just an hour north of Trondheim, and was founded in close cooperation with Nils Aas himself. A few steps away, you will also find the Muustrø Park with sculptures by Nils Aas.

Experience Nils Aas (1933 - 2004), one of Norway's most significant sculpture artists. Nils Aas was a man of few words, but conveyed a very powerful message through his art. His art production range from the intimate to the monumental, from the figurative to the abstract, from paper to steel. Nils Aas was an artis of enormous scope and material control.

Inside the art workshop, you will therefore encounter a very special collection of art, where Nils Aas himself has put together the exhibition in its peculiar way.

Nils Aas emphasises proximity to material and process, and the exhibition stands almost as a textbook in sculpture. By the same token, the exhibition has strong narrative and biographical elements; where it extends from childhood memories reflected through sculpture, to the breakthrough as an artist represented by a miniature statue of King Haakon VII. A massive wood sculpture, titled "BAUTA" or "GIFT" stands in the middle of the room, as a natural centre of gravity in a varied and exciting showroom.
