What now, Oslobiennalen?
Debate in Norwegian
Wednesday 17.06.20
Wednesday 17.06.20
Since Oslobiennalen published its first annual apport, debates around it have been heated. Questions about budget exceedance, international travel and press invitations, visibility in the city and willingness to cooperate. About little distance between granting authorities and artistic leadership. Both at the artist and the institutional level, the art field reacted strongly.
Kunstnernes Hus has a long history as a scene of cultural political debate. We therefore invite everyone interested to join us in debating Oslobiennalen's way forward.
