Article Abstract:

An exhibition of contemporary Norwegian architecture is being held at the Royal Institute of British Architect's Architecture Centre in London, England, until Apr 12,1997. Some 50 projects built between 1990 and 1995 are represented by photographic overviews and drawings. However, while the projects are interesting in themselves, the exhibition understates their differences and none of the presentations carry enough detail to engage architects' interests.
