GunGallery opened its doors in May 2008 in Stockholm. The gallery, directed by Greger Ulf Nilson and Karolina Strömberg, features photographers with various artistic directions - both documentary and conceptual works of contemporary art are among the varied programming.

To Unseen Photo Fair, the gallery will bring work by Gunnar Smoliansky (1933) and Stephen Gill (1971). Gill, a major force in British photography, has exhibited his work at many international galleries and museums including London's National Portrait Gallery, The Victoria and Albert Museum, Palais des Beaux Arts and Haus Der Kunst. His photography can be described a hybrid between documentary and conceptual art. Gill lives and works in Hackney, a neighbourhood filled with contradictions that inspires him in his work.

Currently at GunGallery, you can visit the exhibition Memory by Carsten Höller and Attilio Maranzano. The exhibition will run until 14 October. The following show, Wunderbaum by Lars Tunbjörk, opens on 18 October. First prints of this exhibition will be a part of the Unseen Collection. GunGallery is located on Runebergsgatan 3 in Stockholm and is open from Tuesday to Friday 12-6pm and during the weekend 12-4pm.
