Kunsthalle

In German-speaking regions, a Kunsthalle or Kunsthaus is a facility that mounts art exhibitions, similar to an art gallery. A Kunsthalle is often operated by a non-profit Kunstverein ("art association"), and has associated artists, symposia, studios and workshops. It is distinguished from an art museum by not having a permanent collection.

The term is translated as taidehalli in Finnish, kunsthall in Norwegian and konsthall in Swedish.^[1]
