Art walk in Vestlia Resort
Vestlia appreciates beautiful art, and has chosen to decorate the walls with masterpieces by various artists. Both guests and other visitors to Geilo are welcome for a little art experience. Please contact the reception at Vestlia Resort for more information.
First and foremost, Norway's largest collection of drinking vessels is located in the lobby of Vestlia Resort. Some of these unique wooden drinking vessels can be dated back to the 16th century, and are an important part of folk art in Norway. In the lobby you will also find paintings by Kai Fjell, Axel Ender and graphics by Edvard Munch.
In the Kai Fjell hall, the walls are decorated with beautiful paintings by the artist Kai Fjell. Kai Fjell was a major figure in the romantic-expressive Norwegian painting of the 1930s, in clear opposition to the more dominant formalist direction. Barely 30 years old, he was proclaimed "Edvard Munch's successor".
In addition, the motifs in Eventyrbadet are based on Theodor Kittelsen's famous fairy tale work.
For a digital tour and more background information please visit the website of the Gundersen Collection. In the local bookstore in Geilo you can buy a book about the drinking vessels.
