The red-green coalition of Ap, SV and MDG has been in power in Oslo for eight years, a period in which massive new institutions have opened, the Art City got an art plan, and artists received many temporary studios. We ask the politicians what they have achieved, and about what their programmes promise for the upcoming term. There will be opportunities to ask direct questions to the panel, and we encourage all artists and people in the art field to vote in the election on 11 September.
The event is a collaboration between the artist organisations UKS, BO and Kunstnernes Hus. Free and open to all. The debate is live streamed and will be available online afterwards.
The debate will be held in Norwegian.
Panelet
We have invited Maria Qureshi from Arbeiderpartiet, Bjørgulv Vinje Borgundvaag from Høyre, Rauand Ismail from Miljøpartiet De Grønne, Sofia Rana from Rødt, Sarah Safavifard from Sosialistisk Venstreparti and Eili Vigestad Berge fra Venstre to the panel. Marianne Heier from Billedkunstnerne i Oslo will also participate in the panel.
