Press Release + 115-117 RUE LA FAYETTE F-75010 PARIS +33 (0)9 5102 5188 + WWW.GALERIEPOGGI.COM + PRESS RELEASE Coinciding with the major Edvard Munch exhibition organized by the Centre Pompidou until 9 January 2012 and with the publication of a selection of texts by Munch hitherto unpublished in French that he published with the Presses du Réel, Jérôme Poggi presents, in association with Emilia Stocchi of PRIMO PIANO, an exhibition devoted to the Norwegian contemporary art scene from 15 December 2011 to 4 February 2012. + NORSK, a Norwegian contemporary art scene EDVARD MUNCH - PEDER BALKE - ANNA-EVA BERGMAN JESPER ALVÆR / ELINE MUGAAS - KNUT ÅSDAM - PER BARCLAY - A K DOLVEN - PER MANING Galerie JÉRÔME POGGI (Paris) in collaboration with PRIMO PIANO (Paris) On the occasion of the publication of a selection of texts by Edvard Munch that he has published with the Presses du Réel, Jérôme Poggi is exceptionally associating with Emilia Stocchi, PRIMO PIANO, to organize a major exhibition on the Norwegian contemporary art scene that will be presented in their two spaces in the 10th arrondissement, from 15 December 2011 to 4 February 2012. Entitled NORSK, the exhibition brings together six contemporary artists whose works will be confronted with three of the major great names in Norwegian art history. In dialogue with the titular figure ED- VARD MUNCH (1863-1944), whose almost abstract pastel will be presented exceptionally in the gallery, Per Maning (born 1943) will show a series of recent photographs in the Studio Room of the Galerie Jérôme Poggi. A K DOLVEN (born 1953) will show on her part for the first time in France a series of pain- tings on aluminum that will occupy the conservatory space of the gallery, in vis-à-vis with an exceptional painting by Anna-Eva BERGMAN (1909-1987) from the 1980s with particularly contemporary accents. The main space of the gallery will group some photographic architectural works by artists KNUT ÅSDAM (born 1968) and PER BARCLAY (born 1955). In addition to an emblematic video of his work, the young artist Jesper ALVÆR (born 1973), figure from the Czech as well as the Norwegian art scene, will take over the street front space of the temporary employment agency Interim Domino with a recent photographic and sociological work on Norwegian job applicants. Lastly, within a couple-hundred meters from the gallery, Primo Piano will make a splash by bringing together a rare painting by the romantic Norwegian painter Peder BALKE and a video installation by A K DOLVEN. The exhibition has the endorsement of the Royal Norwegian Embassy and the collaboration of Luc Bellier, Alain Jullien-Laferrière (Centre d’Art Contemporain de Tours), Gunnar Kvaran (Astrup Fearnley Museum), and of the Fondation Hans Hartung-Anna-Eva Bergman. Many thanks to the DOMINO Intérim group, exceptionally associated with this exhibition for the Jesper Alvær project. + + DU MARDI AU SAMEDI DE 10H À 19H S.A.R.L. JÉRÔME POGGI REZ-DE-CHAUSSÉE, FOND DE COUR AU CAPITAL DE 10.000 EUROS TUESDAY-SATURDAY, FROM 10AM TO 7PM SIRET: 51443173300013 GALLERY SITUATED IN THE COURTYARD TVA INTRA-COMMUNAUTAIRE: FR88514431733 + EDVARD MUNCH, Ecrits - Presses du réel On the occasion of the “Munch: l’Oeil Moderne” exhibition presented at the Centre Pompidou from 22 September to 9 January 2012, Presses du Réel have published a selection of texts written by Edvard Munch, edited by Jérôme Poggi and translated from Norwegian by Luce Hinsch. This 160-page illustrated volume brings together for the first time in French a selection of the most important texts by the Norwegian painter, conveying a new way of looking at his work and at his personality. Far from the caricatured clichés that make of Munch the painter of despair, disease and death, these written texts bear witness to an unexpected almost mystical fervor on behalf of the artist in which art, cosmological and scientific considerations intersect in order to attempt to understand the nature of the world and of the human soul. In addition to founding texts such as the Saint Cloud Manifesto or the poem devoted to The Scream, the collection publishes for the first time in French the Cité de l’amour libre, bouffonnade/ pleasantry in a particularly caustic style by the artist, just as the illustrated version of the artist’s artistic testament designated by the title Tree of Knowledge. This collection has the support of NORLA (Norwegian Literature and Non-Literature Abroad), the Royal Norwegian Embassy in France, the Fondation Hartung-Bergman and of Objet de production, Paris.

Born 1973 Copenhagen (D). Lives and works in Prague (CZ) and Oslo (NO). Figure of the Norwegian and Czech art scenes, where for a long time he worked as a two-person team with Isabela Grosseova, Jesper Alvær questions our social, political and cultural environment through conceptual and experimental works dealing with otherness and the encounter of representation and symbols. Recent one-man shows: Czech Center, New York, USA (2006); The Royal College of Art, London (2005) + KNUT ÅSDAM. Born 1968 Trondheim (NO). Lives and works in Oslo (NO). Having lived at length in England and the United States, Knut Åsdam is today one of the most internationally recognized Norwegian artists, having represented his country at the Venice Biennale in 1999. Åsdam makes films, installations and photographs that question our degree of conditioning through urban space and incite us to live in a more conscious manner. In his photographs, his principal subject is architecture that he considers to be at the “conjunction of the social, of the personal, of the paranoiac, and of the public”. Recent one-man shows: Tate Modern, London (2011); The Depo, Istanbul (2011); Kunsthalle of Bergen, Norway (2010), Boijmans Museum, Rotterdam (2007), Galerie Serge Le Borgne, Paris (2006), FRAC Bourgogne, (2006), Tate Britain, Glasgow (2000), Venice Biennale (1999). + PER BARCLAY. Born 1955 Oslo (NO). Lives and works in Turin (IT). Whether through photography or installations, the work of Per BARCLAY tackles principally questions tied to the body, to flux, to architecture and to perception. He is particularly known for his spectacular rooms of oil that he made in situ in the 1980s and of which he made impressive photographs. Recent one-man shows: Rue Visconti, Paris (2011); CCC de Tours (2008); Merz Foundation, Turin (2008); Museum of Installa- tion, London (2000) + A K DOLVEN. Born 1953 Oslo (NO). Lives and works in London (UK). Recognized for her work in painting and video, A K Dolven seeks in her works to find an equilibrium between the position of mankind as much as an individual as that he exercises in society. Nevertheless situated beyond a frontal political approach, her works regularly have recourse to the Norwegian landscape of the Lofoten Islands, where one of his studios is to be found. Recent exhibitions: Centre Pompidou (2011); Folkestone Triennial, United Kingdom (2011); The Fourth Guangzhou Triennial, Guangzhou, China (2011); Carlier|gebauer, Berlin (2006); Staatliches Museum Schwerin, Germany (2002) + PER MANING. Born 1943 Oslo (NO). Lives and works in Oslo (NO) As yet largely unknown in France, where however his work was presented at a recent Video evening at Centre Pompidou, Per Maning is one of the most famous Norwegian artists of his generation. His introspective works carry out a subtle parallel between animals and the place of mankind amongst them. Exclusively photographic and video, his work has already been compared to that of (Munch Museum 2006) with whom he shares a certain number of figures. Recent exhibitions: Centre Pompidou (2011); St Louis Sculpture Park, USA (2010); Munch Museum, Oslo (2006); Institute of Visual Arts, Milwaukee, USA (2002) + ELINE MUGAAS. Born 1969 Oslo (NO). Lives and works in Oslo (NO) Mugaas works with photography and video mainly through portraits, interiors and cityscape’s. Her work brings forth a web of connections between different images that combine the private subjective with topographic depictions of urban environments and architecture. Oslo has been one of her main photographic subjects. sible stories and and identities. People are the central focus of her photographs, even when they are absent. Recent exhibitions: MoCAV, Novi Sad, Serbia (2010), La Otra 2010, Hotel Continental, Bogota, Colombia (2010) + ANNA-EVA BERGMAN. Born 1909 Stockholm (SE), died 24 July 1987 Grasse (F). The recent exhibition “Elles” of the Centre Pompidou enabled one to rediscover the astonishing modernity of the work of Anna-Eva Bergman, whose fame suffered for a long time due to that of her husband Hans Hartung. Recent exhibitions and studies that have recently been devoted to her reveal her to be one of the most important artists in the history of Norwegian art, and furthermore, one of the most unique representatives of abstract art of the latter half of the 20th century.

  • Landscape, Geopolitics, and National Identity in the Norwegian Thrillers Occupied and Nobel
    NORDICOM REVIEW Landscape, Geopolitics, and National Identity in the Norwegian Thrillers Occupied and Nobel Robert A. Saunders Department of History, Politics and Geography, Farmingdale State College – SUNY, USA Abstract Focusing on the use of landscape in the Norwegian series Occupied (2015–2020) and Nobel (2016), this article examines the ways in which cityscapes and panoramas of the natural environment are employed as affective, as well as aesthetic tools for storytelling within a geopolitically inflected framework. Drawing on literature from popular geopolitics, geocriti- cism, and visual politics, my analysis interrogates the ways in which geopolitical codes and visions manifest via televisual fiction, reflecting a variety of insecurities associated with Norway’s current position in world affairs, as well as contemporary challenges to Norwegian national identity. This article also discusses how these two series have adapted key geovisual elements of the what I deem the “near Nordic Noir” style to focus more explicitly on geopolitical questions, linking Occupied and Nobel to other geopolitically inflected series from Nordic Europe. Keywords: landscape, Nordic Noir, geopolitics, Occupied, Nobel Introduction: Screening geopolitics in the “North” Dramatic television series are increasingly delving into complex geopolitical themes, from the premediation of a female prime minister in Borgen, to the critique of US- Russian relations in the Middle East in House of Cards, to allegorical depictions of climate change in Game of Thrones. The renowned scholar of popular culture and world politics Daniel Drezner (2016) has commented that we live in a “golden age” of inter- national relations (IR) television programming, one where past, present, and imaginary metaphorical worlds abound.

August 2007 Nord-Trøndelag University College Faculty of Teacher Education ISBN 978-82-7456-588-3 Steinkjer 2009 Foreword Being in Nature! We are glad to present papers from the Gisna valley conference – ―Being in Nature‖. The conference took place in August 2007. We have tried to categorize the papers in six different themes. The first category is ―Friluftsliv‖ and it opens with a paper written by Nils Faarlund, Norway. He is outlining the deep roots of the traditional Norwegian friluftsliv. The second theme is called ―Time and Space‖. In one of the papers Jay Griffiths describes ―Wild time‖ and how aboriginal peoples look upon time. We have called the third theme ―Identity‖ , but only one paper is represented in this category. Ingrid Urberg and Morten Asfeldt are writing about winter experiences in the North of Canada. The most comprehensive theme is our fourth: ―Nature conservation, education and politics‖. We look upon this to be very natural for a conference like this. The fifth cathegory is about ―Aesthetics‖ and the last cathegory discuss quality of life. It is often difficult to cathegorize the different papers. Most of them are linked together and could definitely be categorized in another way.

  • Peder Balke Finnmark Landscape, C. 1860
    Peder Balke Norwegian, 1804 – 1887 Finnmark Landscape, c. 1860 Oil on canvas Collection of Asbjørn Lunde The lonely, craggy tree set in an expan­ sive landscape was an important motif in Romantic landscapes. Here it may represent the resilience and endurance of life. The tree stands in the flat landscape of the Finnmark region in northeastern Norway. Wrapped in a thick coat of snow, all life seems to be frozen on this endless plateau. Instead of depicting a famous landmark or vista, Balke envisioned a landscape with no distinctive features. He painted this vision of Finnmark almost thirty years after he had visited the region. Peder Balke Norwegian, 1804 – 1887 Old Trees, late 1840s Oil on paper, mounted on paperboard Collection of Asbjørn Lunde Balke painted this small sketch extremely quickly, leaving parts of it unfinished, as you can see in the foreground. In Old Trees, Balke explores the dramatic effects of light in a mountainous landscape. The enormous mountain or cliff to the right creates a steep diagonal line that is mirrored by the slanted trunk of the dying tree. Although Balke did not note the location, the view evokes famous Norwegian sites such as the North Cape.
