Die Pleite
Die Pleite Stian Adlandsvik Hovedbilde

Through sculptural interventions, Die Pleite draws on the logic and ethics of bankruptcy estates to open a dialogue with the history and architecture of Kunstnernes Hus. The exhibition explores the tensions between what is valued and what is left over; ideas of freedom confront the modern project's need for categorization and systematization.

About the artist

Stian Ådlandsvik (b. 1981, Bergen) graduated from the Oslo Academy of Art (2006) and has extensive experience with exhibitions and public art projects both in Norway and internationally. His artistic practice is rooted in a conceptual approach to sculpture, where materials and processes illuminate cultural and societal structures. In recent years, he has exhibited at P////AKT (Amsterdam), Trondheim Art Museum (Trondheim), Seson (Seattle, USA), Philipp von Rosen Galerie (Cologne, Germany), and Schunck (Heerlen, Netherlands). Ådlandsvik's works are part of collections such as the Astrup Fearnley Foundation (Oslo) and Nomas Foundation (Rome).
