This is how I write
What thoughts does the art critic have when seeing an exhibition? How does the critic relate to language as a form of expression? The art section of the Norwegian Critics' Association welcomes you to a conversation about the critics work as a writing practice, with Line Ulekleiv, Stian Gabrielsen and Andreas Breivik.
The conversation will be held in Norwegian.
About the event
The work of critics has been much discussed in recent years - especially with a focus on the critic and the increasingly vulnerable conditions of criticism. With "This is how I write", on the other hand, we want to provide a professional insight into the more concrete aspects of the work of critics as a writing practice.
