Fotografiska Museum has announced its expansion to three new locations in Berlin, Shanghai and and Miami, to be housed within existing buildings redesigned by Herzog & De Meuron, Neri&Hu and Rockwell Group.

A former department store in Berlin's Jewish Quarter, a 1946 factory building in Miami and a historically significant warehouse complex in Shanghai are the future Fotografiska venues set for completion in 2022 and 2023. 

Together with the existing locations in Stockholm, Tallin and New York, these will form the world's largest private art museum in terms of size, number of locations, and exhibitions per year.

Founded in 2010 in Stockholm, Fotografiska New York housed within the 1894 Renaissance Revival-style Church Missions House,  is a world-renowned destination for photographic art and cultural programming, which in early 2021 merged with private work and social space NeueHouse, forming CultureWorks. 

The expansion carries on the tradition of contemporary restorations of historic buildings, with Fotografiska New York housed within the 1894 Renaissance Revival-style Church Missions House, Fotografiska Tallin located in a 1890s factory building, while the Stockholm museum is housed within a former customs house from 1906.
