Introduction to Arctic Arts Summit 2019 report

The international Arctic Arts Summit (AAS) 2019 took place June 3–5, 2019 in Rovaniemi, Finland. Representatives of ministries from Arctic countries, cultural and educational institutions, non-governmental organisations and artist unions discussed arts, culture, sustainability and circumpolar collaboration. There were 450 participants from over 20 countries, and the president of Finland, Sauli Niinistö, was the patron of the summit. The event aimed to strengthen international interaction and the vitality of the arts and culture sector. The discussions were accompanied by a comprehensive art programme, including exhibitions, concerts and performances, which was produced by art institutions and organizations in Lapland in collaboration with their Arctic partners. While contemporary art can be a powerful means to investigate, report and assimilate critical issues into the public consciousness, the art programme of the Summit added provocative, as well as sensitive contributions, to the dialogue. The Arctic region is changing rapidly. Ecological, cultural, social and economic changes pose challenges for the well-being of the population and sustainable development, although some of these changes also create new possibilities. At AAS 2019, the challenges and circumstances of the Arctic were seen as ‘laboratory’ in which sustainable arts and culture policy could be developed in collaboration with all of the Arctic counties. The key aim of AAS 2019 was to support the arts and culture sector in circumpolar collaboration. We need to recognize, develop and promote sustainable and responsible models of action, long-term planning, infrastructure in the creative industries and cooperation in education. The indigenous arts and culture policy and interdisciplinary research on the impact of art and culture are essential contents of inputs for these themes. Too often, the Arctic is seen only as a source of raw materials and thought of a location on the periphery thus, additional aims were to make the Arctic and its art and culture more widely known globally and to increase awareness of the sustainable models of cultural support. A few previous and parallel political events challenged the preparations of AAS 2019. Finland had just been the chair of the Arctic Council—the intergovernmental forum that aims to promote cooperation and interaction among the Arctic States, Arc- tic indigenous communities and other Arctic inhabitants. The Arctic Council held the Arctic Ministerial Meeting in Rovaniemi in May 2019, just a month before AAS 2019. The event received lots of media attention but was deemed a disappointment as no joint declarations were made (Koivurova 2019). In addition, the National Parade on the Flag Day of the Finnish Defence Forces was held in Rovaniemi at the same of time as AAS 2019. Approximately 1,000 troops and 49 vehicles from the Army, Navy and Air Force and other military organizations took part in the parade, accompanied by Air Force and Army aircraft in the sky (Finnish Defence Forces 2019). As such, the political atmosphere in the Arctic and in Rovaniemi did not seem as peaceful as we had hoped.

Janne Jakola The Arctic Art Summit Advisory Board held its meeting on the first day of the Summit. On the basis of the great interest in the first and second Summits, the board discussed that there is a genuine need for this kind of platform—bringing together people living and making art in the Arctic, academia and policy makers. The board stays committed to further developing the Summit in the years to come. The stakeholders from Canada confirmed their interest in hosting the next Summit in Canada. The board warmly welcomed this idea and suggested that the next summit be hosted in Canada. The board agreed to meet later this year to follow up on future planning; the meeting will be held during the Arctic Frontiers conference in Tromso in January 2020. The AAS 2019 programme included speeches from ministries and other relevant bodies, panel discussions and research presentations. In addition to the official speeches, Policy Day included two panel discussions: one on Arctic arts and culture from the perspective of sustainability and the other on funding programmes. On the Hands On Day, the discussion topics were divided into sub-themes: Arctic arts and culture, challenges and opportunities for Arctic arts and culture, culture and sustainable development, research, capacity building and networks and infrastructures. Under these themes, there were 30 panel discussions. In addition, there were two open-air workshops and 19 presentations by researchers. The artistic programme featured four exhibitions, which were opened as part of the event: Fringe, Young Arctic Artists, Transactions and Impulsion, and Arctic // Street Art // Summit. In addition, at the reception of the city, an exhibition of Place of Origin was on display at the Rovaniemi Art Museum. There were three music concerts performed by Quantum Tangle, The Arctic Soiree of Ruska Ensemble and Solju. The programme also included the Nordting performance by The Northern Assembly, several artistic interventions produced by the Piste collective and a performance by Hilda Länsman and Tuomas Norvio. In this report, we present the abstracts of the presentations and panel discussions from the event, photo documentation and glimpses of reflections and conclusions made by journalists and panel discussion session chairs. The conclusion section is based on our research article in which we analysed the discourses from the event. The conclusion is derived from the discussion of the statements made during the first AAS in Harstad and from the AAS 2019.

“Culture is a principle of who we are: From cultural heritage to creative industries, it shapes our identity. We may ask: Is the focus on Arctic culture just the fourth pillar of sustainable “ development or is it even more than that? Con- ceptually, culture incorporates social and economic sustainability. Culture is both an enabler and a driver of the social, environmental and economic dimensions of sustainable development,” said Timo Jokela, the summit chair.

Janne Jakola

In a thoughtful speech, Dieter K. Müller, profes- sor in Human Geography at the Umeå Univer- “sity, Sweden, highlighted that the arctic circle is “moving south”: more and more countries want to identify themselves as part of the Arctic region because that denomination would make them look more attractive to tourists’ eyes; “the Arctic is hot, in many senses” he said. The Arctic is hot because it represents the promise of adventures, stunning landscape, and exotic populations, therefore tourism has been on the rise in this part of the world during the last decade. Global warming is affecting the North faster than other parts of the world, the Arctic is literally hot and environ- mentalists look at what is happening up here in order to predict the trajectory of climate change throughout the world. Ana Victoria Bruno, artzine 21.07. 2019 4

The Arctic nations have been cooperating for 25 years in a parliamentary-based “Arctic Council as well as in Arctic networks for universities and research structures, and a number of Arctic strategies have been drawn up. All of this has been further updated in recent years through increased climate change, which most clearly is felt near the North Pole. This in turn has led to increased traffic, trade routes and interest in the extraction of previously inaccessible natural resources, while the area has become something of a laboratory for forms Janne Jakola and attitudes to climate adaptation and The culture must translate the lab exercise observations of resilience and resilience of and the academic discussions into con- life forms.

Arctic Arts Summit down the street: “The world is becoming increasingly connected, through shared social, environmental, cultural and economic challenges, requiring different forms of transnational knowledge and solutions; The Arctic is often viewed as a huge uninhabited, wild area. However, there are about 4.5 million people living in the Arctic unevenly scattered among the eight Arctic countries; the Arctic as open and indeterminate space that triggers masculine phantasies of adventure (and hence also “ tourism); One of the main roots of the indigenous culture is the relation between man and nature. The perspective of Indigenous Peoples in the Arctic consider human as part as the nature in same way as the other elements like vegetation, the minerals and the animals. All elements are also perceived in an equal way.” Adapting themes of those who have lived in the Arctic is a start in curtailing Global Warming. - Anchorage Press / Jean Bundy, 25.6.2019, Alaska Native Artists Help ‘Make the North Great Again’

It is a problem that the authorities in the Arctic countries do not want to ensure that these voices of art and cultural sector gain a place in institutionalized Arc- tic cooperation. There is no political force behind the vague dream of the arts and culture sector to play a role in the Arctic Council that over the past twenty years has become central to Arctic developments. And no one in the cultural “ world has dared to formulate this as a deafening requirement. - Jens-Eirik Lars- en «Ingen kommer undan politiken» nordnorskdebatt 15.6.2019 DAY 3 / Dialogue Thematic Sessions

Making art is not only therapeutic; it promotes borderless power of place, and long term cultural sustainability. A speaker at the Arctic Arts Summit “pointed out, non-democratic countries fear artistic creativity the most. As the dialectic is never removed from art-speak, some felt white-wall-museums were never suitable to show indigenous art. More was broached: who are you making art for, who is listening to how you want it shown, should the non-indigenous be allowed to judge Native art? This notion expands into another ongoing debate about who should be allowed to appropriate materials and narratives from which or what ethnicity in order to create aesthetically. However, old or new, art and culture can’t seem to stop dia- loguing, as I came upon snowboards and antique kayaks snuggling up to one another. - Jean Bundy, Anchorage Press, 25.6.2019

Ecological Sustainable Development Kaisa-Reetta Seppänen Cultural Tourism Performing Arts Research on Arctic art continues intensively in university collaborations in the area, with design-oriented research at the forefront. Here it is about the meaningful active matter, what is now theorized as new materialism is perceived here as a basis. Art is not separated from the craft, the cultural heritage is reflected from the perspective of practice. The inclusive research field brings together contemporary “ art, all types of design, crafts, technology and media. The concept of art history may give way to anthropological and political. The idea of sustainability means not only development, but also selection, what the contemporary chooses to see as valuable enough to be preserved. The interdisciplinary ongoing processes are about definitions, about the linguistic expressions that ultimately shape the discourse of the mind images, about confounding perceptions of the imaginary north. - Cupore, 08.08.2019, Maria Hirvi-Ijäs, Den arktiska kulturens politik DAY 3 / Dialogue Thematic Sessions 11 Culturally Sustainable Development for Calling Collaboration What contribution can the arts Art, Culture and Sustainable Development make to the sustainability agen- There are many views about, and definitions of, sus- da?

Possible common creative and tourism dimensions discussed included: •An enhanced attention to the creative activity in the circumpolar north, com- bined with a growing acknowledgement that the creative sector is a force to be reckoned with; •An increased interest in and visitation to the circumpolar countries, and their northern dimension offerings; •Lack of policy and planning strategies - Suzanne de la Barre, chair DAY 3 / Dialogue 13 Research Findings & Reformed Questions on and Arctic Arts Culture ThematicArtistic Sessions research, cultural Decolonizing Research Practices in the Arts research and the shadow of Linda Tuhwai Smith argued in her foundational text Decolonizing Methodologies (1999) colonialism are just three of the that although Indigenous researchers—such as curators, professors, museum practitioners, key topics addressed here under artists and art historians—often train and work in non-Indigenous institutions under specific the broad heading of ‘research’.

The Norwegian Sámi artist Elina Waage Mikalsen presents a piece called “Mun bijan iežan beallji ránu beallji vuostá / I put my ear next to the looms ear” in the exhibition. [,,,] The artefact of the piece is an old loom that used to belong to the author’s grandmother. The cultural background of the piece lies in the Sea Sámi culture around the area of Olmmáivággi/ Manndalen, where the author’s Sámi roots are located. This area has maintained a rare handicraft tradition of vertical loom, which is the type the loom of the piece also represents.For the piece the artist has modified the old device in a way that it “ has become something completely else: an instrument. Where there used to be weft threads, there are now strings. [,,,] this piece is a fascinating effort to interpret the material culture of the past and a soundscape related to it in a completely new way – to put one’s own ear carefully against the loom’s ear – and place it in the new framework of contemporary art. – Cu- rator Panu Johansson, PostSantaBlog 27.7.2019, From There to Here - and from Here to the Universe North 15 Creative Capability Building In the Arctic economy is Artist and designers education for and with Arctic expected to shift from use of Significant social, cultural, economic, ecological and climatic changes are taking place around DAY 3 / Dialogue raw natural resources to the the world, but the pace of change may well be faster, and the impact more keenly felt, in the creative industries.

Indigenous Issues Ecological Sustainable Development Cultural Tourism Performing Arts Quantum Tangle , photo by Kaisa-Reetta Seppänen It is easy to say that art and culture must be clear from the political gatherings, that culture must always seek to create people for people-cooperation - even where political cooperation is most difficult. Therefore, it is now fitting to recall a punishment from a famous song from the 70s, when the Swedish cultural activist and singer Marie Bergman was a big hero in progressive cultural circles in both Norway and Sweden. "No one escapes politics," she sang at the time. “ That is a truth even today. The culture must translate the lab exercise and the academic discussions into concrete and bold input into a cultural policy for the northern areas. For the Arctic, the lab does not change. The Arctic is changing into an international game, with the benefit of those who take globalized reality seriously. That's just how it is. No one escapes politics. - Jens-Eirik Larsen: Arctic Arts Summit 2019:«Ingen kommer undan politiken». High North News 12.6. 2019

The creation of powerful art in the Arctic is undeniable. “However, many of us have much to learn about the region's myriad cultures, languages and histories, but also about how the Arctic can be viewed from a regional, national cross-cultural perspective. The next round of the Arctic Arts Summit is scheduled to launch in Canada's territory in 2021. - Cupore, 08.08.2019, Maria Hirvi-Ijäs, Den arktiska kulturens politik Janne Jakola 21 Maria Huhmarniemi & Timo Jokela Conclusion based on the arcticle Arctic arts with pride: discourses on Arctic arts, culture and sustainability

There is no strong position on arts and culture in the Arctic collaborative institutions focused on sustainability and the changes in the Arctic. Despite that, artists have agency in discussions on global politics and climate crises through art. Artists take part in discussions on social, cultural and environmental issues. They address colonisation and the exploitation of natural resources, empower local communities and create future imaginaries and alternative images of the Arctic after de-arcticfication. A stronger presence of politics at AAS 2019 would have been beneficial for policy development but its absence did not cause the event to fail; in fact, AAS 2019 supported artists and the arts and culture sector by fostering networking and creating a forum to share joint challenges and possibilities. It was also noted that ecological sustainability must be included in cultural policies in the Arctic and elsewhere.

Arctic indigenous artists, researchers and policy makers were strongly present at AAS 2019 and active in defining the themes of the discourses. Issues specifically concerning indigenous cultures were focused on in many panel discussions. Meanwhile, it was also expressed that indigenous cultures and other lifestyles of the peoples in the Arctic are blending and that the Arctic is multi-ethnic, multicultural and multi-lingual. It was demanded that non-indigenous Arctic cultures be more appreciated incorporatedin national policies and strategies, not only due to their economic impact. It was also urged that self-determination and participation in decisions regarding cultures and cultural life in the Arctic should be made by people living in the region. Circumpolar mobility and collaboration were seen as means for contributing to the appreciation of cultural diversity, as well as the sense of being northerners with pride. As an event, AAS 2019 enhanced this sense.

In the 2000s, there was growing interest in the material culture of the Arctic in parallel to a materialistic turn in contemporary the- ory. In the context of Arctic arts, new materialism has importance, since Arctic arts is understood to include contemporary forms of expression, as well as traditional crafts and contemporary art based on crafts. The concept of crafting sustainability is implement- ed in projects where dialogue, revitalisation and empowerment are created though crafting. In addition, crafting Arctic sustainability describes new initiatives for developing culturally sensitive creative tourism. Recent development research demonstrates the potential for collaborations between creative industriesand the tourism economy.

Place-making and revitalisation were central concepts for discussing traditions in transitions and educational practises. The importance of artist education in the Arctic was highlighted; sustainability in the Arctic amid change needs creative capacities and capabilities. When artists are educated in the region, they gain knowledge and commit to participate in Arctic politics and conduct socially and environmentally engaged art. Art creates meanings, symbols and values that are meaningful for identities and place-making. It was claimed that we need to make sure that Arctic arts, design and craft retain their ability to continuously trans- form and renew themselves. In addition, the significance of artist education, as well children’s arts and culture and the community-oriented arts-based method were underscored.

Creative capital and the potential of creative industries were discussed, and it was pondered whether and how creative industries can foster economic development as a complement or alternative to extractionist cultures and resource-based development, which causes conflicts in the region. The greatest potential was seen in the film industry, in which Arctic landscapes have increased the competitiveness of Arctic productions. The film industry also has relevance for de-arcticfication, giving hope and work for people living in the region and contributing to the sense of being northerners with pride. Moreover, the potential for economic sustainability was seen in socially sustainable tourism development. In the field of visual arts, the lack of a market for selling artwork in the Nordic Arctic was spotlighted, and the need for online galleries and shops focusing on Arctic arts was presented. The issues of economic sustainability included ways to support artists and their productions in the region. It was asserted that funding practices must be developed to allow circumpolar collaborations and better work conditions for artists.

These five discourses from AAS 2019 are essential not only for cultural sustainability in the Arctic but also elsewhere. The AAS 2019 themes were based on the idea that Arctic environments and social-cultural settings can work as laboratories for innovative art and design development research and arenas in which context-sensitive methods for art and design can be developed. This is not only relevant for the Arctic but also for the rest of the world, especially areas that meet the special conditions of peripheral areas and culturally sensitive encounters.
