Designed and illustrated by Lucia Fiorani Correction by Ric Francis Font family: Brandon Grotesque Distributed in 200 copies Her og Der is an artist networking project that works as a GPS to guide newly arrived artists to the art field in Norway; the project aims to educate these newcomers on how to establish themselves financially and creatively within the art community in Norway. A selected number of artists are chosen for the project once a year. Her og Der schedules meetings with its artist participants, institutions and knowledgeable individuals, in public administration, to provide information about Norwegian art and culture; the purpose is to find concrete solutions - by building bridges - that contribute to actual artist participation in the cultural field. We recognize the need to create opportunities for collaborations that will make the art field more accessible and diverse. The project was initiated in 2018 and began a mentor program in 2019. We are looking for artists who are reestablishing themselves in Norway and who would like to be part of the Her og Der network. Her og Der is initiated by Marie Skeie and Motaz al Habbash and produced by TrAP, an independent arts production company, working to increase diversity within Norwegian arts and culture. Her og Der is supported by IMDI, Arts Council Norway, Oslo Municipality and Billedkunstnernes Vederlagsfond (BKV). CONTENTS : 2. 4.

  • Norwegian Art and Crafts Teachers' Conceptions of Creativity
    Journal for Research in Arts and Sports Education Peer-reviewed article Vol. 4 | Nr. 1 | 2020 | pp. 1–18 Norwegian art and crafts teachers’ conceptions of creativity Brynjar Olafsson* University of South-Eastern Norway Abstract This study investigates Norwegian art and crafts teachers’ conceptions of creativity through the responses to a questionnaire from 791 teachers in compulsory education. The curriculum in Nor- way for compulsory education emphasizes the development of creativity in the art and crafts field more than in the other core subjects. However, the curriculum does not offer a clear definition of creativity or how creativity-related goals should be reached. According to prior research, teachers express different ideas about what creativity involves, and their conceptual understanding can affect their teaching practices. Results indicate that teachers hold beliefs that are in misalignment with recent literature, and a better conceptual understanding could support them in emphasizing cre- ativity in the classroom. This applies especially to individual creative capacity, assessment, and the role played by domain knowledge in education. Keywords: Art and crafts education; compulsory education; Norway; creativity Received: May, 2019; Accepted: November, 2019; Published: February, 2020 Introduction Creativity is recognized as a fundamental skill that is indispensable in a complex and ever-changing digital age (Craft, 2011). For this reason, the issue of creativity is receiv- ing increased attention within compulsory education in many countries (Beghetto & Kaufman, 2017). According to a recent Norwegian study, leaders of innovative production companies often identify creativity and experience as more important than formal education when seeking new employees (Svare, 2014). Despite creativity being highlighted in the national curriculum (Ministry of Education and Research, 2006), Gjærum and Gran (2016) posit that the Norwegian compulsory education system tends to depress creativity and demotivate students with significant emphasis on theoretical subjects.

Danish high society supported the academic rigor of the German education system and expressed little interest in sustaining the rural folk and its culture.

  • Eros and Thanatos in Norwegian Art Nouveau Tove Kristin Lande Stiftelsen Kulturkvartalet; Jugendstilsenteret and KUBE
    Strand 3. Les Fleurs du Mal: Style in a Troubled Age Eros and Thanatos in Norwegian Art Nouveau Tove Kristin Lande Stiftelsen Kulturkvartalet; Jugendstilsenteret and KUBE Abstract The worship of fertile and pure youth in Art Nouveau iconography, with its frequent symbols such as rosebuds, eggs, and the shy gaze of maidenhood, is well documented. However, as the Austrian writer Stefan Zweig tells us in his autobiographical novel The World of Yesterday (1942), the Art Nouveau movement was as much a youthful revolt that explored taboos and the limits of established attitudes as it was an aesthetic movement devoted to the worship of beauty and innocence. How is this represented in Art Nouveau iconography in the visual arts? Using Sigmund Freud’s theoretical concepts of Eros and Thanatos, which address phenomena like the subconscious, morality, decadence, desire, sexual liberation and sexual identity, I will focus on the movement’s darker side, with special reference to Norwegian Art Nouveau.

  • Works by Norwegian-American Artists
    Works by Norwegian-American Artists: During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, about three hundred individuals were considered Norwegian- American artists, "who felt they had to speak to express their feelings by creating some object," (Rolf H. Erickson, 1986). While a universally accepted definition of "Norwegian-American art" has not been determined, the definition followed by the Chicago Norske Klub of 1920 still serves us today. Norwegian- American art was then defined as "painting and sculpture produced by artists with Norwegian backgrounds." Over 180 works in the Luther College Fine Arts Collection concentration were created by Norwegian- American artists. Fifteen of these artists were born in Norway and emigrated to America while fifteen other artists are American but have a strong Norwegian background. Their works form a significant component of the Collection, especially meaningful since Luther College was founded by Norwegian immigrants. Some of the art works in the Norwegian-American Collection also are components of other Named Collections. The fifteen artists born in Norway are Sigvald Asbjørnsen (sculptor and painter from Oslo); Arne Berger (painter from Valdres); Emil Biorn (painter from Oslo); Ben Blessum (painter from Marstein, Romsdalen); Nils Saebjørn Buttedahl (actor and sculptor from Lier); Herbjørn Gausta (painter from Tinn, Telemark); Claus Hoie (print-maker and painter from Stavanger); Tarkjel Landsverk (stone artisan, painter, and carver from Seljord, Telemark); Marie Løkke, aka Mrs. Finn Mathiesen (painter from Oslo); Elizabeth Maurland (potter from Oslo); Karl Peter Andreas Ouren (painter from Halden); Gulbrand Sether (painter from Saerslovbygda, Elverum); Yngvar Sonnichsen (painter from Oslo); and Svend Rasmussen Svendsen (painter from Nittedal).

  • Crossroads of the World

By David McKay Wilson Photographs by Sissel Drevsjø greta berg ’10 grew up in minnesota surrounded by Norwegian–American culture. She ate lutefisk at Christmas, wore a colorful bunad on Norwegian Constitution Day, listened to her grand- father’s tales about Norway and immersed herself in the traditions of her ancestral homeland at Skogfjorden summer camp in northern Minnesota. But she’d never stepped foot on Norwegian soil until this summer, when she joined five St . Olaf students and three faculty members at the 62 nd session of the International Summer School (ISS) at the University of Oslo. There she studied Norwegian art and literature, joined in discussions with students from around the world, tried out the Norwegian language on the streets of Oslo and took a four-day trip through the mountains to the rural fjord villages of western Norway with students from several nations, many of whom experienced snow for the first time. Berg’s trip to Vestlandet was among the highlights of her six-week session at the International Summer School, a program that blends rigorous academic course - work with cultural and social events and peace-building experiences. St . Olaf College students travel and study the world over, but the continu - ing participation of Oles at the International Summer School reinforces the special link between St . Olaf and Norway. The school thrives on the sprawling University Field work is crucial to many of the ISS courses.

  • Vikings of the Midwest: Place, Culture, and Ethnicity in Norwegian-American Literature, 1870-1940
    VIKINGS OF THE MIDWEST: PLACE, CULTURE, AND ETHNICITY IN NORWEGIAN-AMERICAN LITERATURE, 1870-1940 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kristin Ann Risley, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Steven Fink, Adviser Professor Georgina Dodge _________________________ Adviser Professor Susan Williams Department of English Copyright by Kristin Ann Risley 2003 ABSTRACT Although immigration is one of the defining elements of American history and ideology, texts written in the United States in languages other than English have been overlooked within American literary studies, as have the related categories of immigrant, ethnic, and regional writing and publishing. My project addresses the need for studies in multilingual American literature by examining the concept of home or Vesterheimen (literally, “the western home”) in Norwegian-American literature. I argue that ethnic writers use the notion of home to claim and/or criticize American values and to narrate individual and collective identities—in essence, to write themselves into American literature and culture. Hence these “hyphenated” American authors are united in the common imaginative project of creating a home and history in the United States. My project locates and examines Vesterheimen in three main contexts: place, community, and culture. The first part of the dissertation focuses on Norwegian- American print culture as a dynamic force in shaping and promoting ethnic consciousness. The first and second chapters provide case studies on Augsburg Publishing House and one of its feature publications, the Christmas annual Jul i Vesterheimen.
