She studied architecture at the\u00a0Oslo School of Architecture (AHO)\u00a0under Sverre Fehn, Wenche Selmer\u00a0and Christian Norberg-Schulz and as a\u00a0visiting student at The Irwin S. Chanin\u00a0School of Architecture of The Cooper\u00a0Union under John Hejduk. After graduating\u00a0from AHO she worked for Raimund\u00a0Abraham.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2007 H\u00f8lmebakk has been a professor\u00a0at AHO. She has been artistic professor\u00a0at Chalmers University, Sweden\u00a0and visiting professor at the University of\u00a0Navarra, Spain, and Cornell University,\u00a0USA. She was the 2024\/2025 Patrick\u00a0Geddes Visiting Fellow at the Edinburgh\u00a0School of Architecture and Landscape\u00a0Architecture.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2004 H\u00f8lmebakk has been running\u00a0the architectural office Manthey Kula\u00a0together with partner Per Tamsen. The\u00a0office operates at the intersection of art,\u00a0architecture and landscape architecture\u00a0with a production that spans from ideal,\u00a0explorative projects to public commissions.\u00a0The work is based not on the study\u00a0of precedents, but rather on the desire\u00a0to bring something of distinct character\u00a0into existence. It is about presence; and\u00a0about how things are made, as a careful\u00a0balance of site, material, structure, and\u00a0narrative.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022 both H\u00f8lmebakk and Tamsen\u00a0received the Swedish Prince Eugene\u00a0Medal for outstanding artistic achievement.\u00a0Their work has been nominated\u00a0for the Mies van der Rohe Award in\u00a02009, 2011, 2019, and 2022. Publications\u00a0include an A+U monograph (24:05), two\u00a0asBUILT books (Pax) and two monographs:\u00a0MK About (Libria) and Rotunda<br \/>\nIV: Manthey Kula (Trema).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to the November Talk with Manthey Kula\u00a0(NOR): &#8220;A Feeling of Sense&#8221; (an event in collaboration with the Sto Stiftung) Tuesday 17\/11\/\u201926, 6.30 PM Alexianenplein 1, 9000 Ghent (Auditorium A4) Please register here.
