THE CONTEMPORARY ART DAYS SUMMIT 2018 NETWORKS AND ALLIANCES samtidskonstdagarna.se/en 14–16 November 2018 Boden/Luleå 13 November Pre-summit visit to Kiruna The Contemporary Art Days is the annual contemporary art summit that brings together art professionals from across Sweden and other countries to discuss current issues for art organisations. In 2018, for the first time, the summit is organised under the aegis of the Public Art Agency Sweden. This year’s summit will focus on building networks and alliances as strate- gies for action in contemporary art organisations today. The last few years have witnessed a large increase in organisational networks across the art field in Sweden. Whether formal or informal, on a local or national scale, with Nordic or international counterparts, alliances are formed in a variety of constellations between art institutions, self-organised initiatives and other organisations. Are these networks signs of the signature strategy of the neoliberal working world? Or are they responses of mutual support and solidarity by small and mid-size art organisations in the changing political landscape and precarious economic conditions? Or are today’s networks merely new forms of age old tools for building assemblies around mutual concerns? The Contemporary Art Days 2018 presents a diverse programme comprising guest speakers, performances, site visits and workshops that will examine a variety of ways of working with networks and building strategic alliances. The summit is held in the region of Norrbotten in the north of Sweden. A preview of the 2018 Luleå Biennial is included in the programme, as well as a pre-summit site visit to Kiruna, a mining town that is being relocated and rebuilt. On the occasion of the summit and the biennial, Public Art Agency Sweden will also reactivate The Blood of Stars by Raqs Media Collective, a site-specific installation located inside the abandoned subterranean military facility Mjölkuddsberget in Luleå. Programme group: Edi Muka, Cornelius Stiefenhofer, Ingela Ögren Weinmar, Niklas Östholm and Giorgiana Zachia. Contemporary Art Days Summit 2018 is co-produced by Havremagasinet Regional Centre for Contemporary Art; Konstfrämjandet, People’s Movements for Art Promotion; and Public Art Agency Sweden with financial support from the Norrbotten County Council. 3 The Contemporary Art Days 2018 Programme 14–16 November WEDNESDAY 14 NOVEMBER Saga Cinema, Drottninggatan 4, Boden 13.00 Registration, networking and coffee 14.00 Welcome Speeches: Magdalena Malm and Kristina Nilsson EN / SE 14.15 Performance: NORDTING (The Northern Assembly), Boden Amund Sjølie Sveen EN 15.30 Introduction, workshop and coffee Giorgiana Zachia, Kajsa Balkfors and Jesper Hök SE / EN 17.00 Discussion on networks and collaborations among art organisations in the Barents Region: Kristoffer Dolmen, Hanna Horsberg Hansen, Jérémie Michael McGowan, Svein Ingvoll Pedersen, Riitta Kuusikko and Cornelius Stiefenhofer EN 17.40 Closing remarks 18.00 Bus to Rödbergsfortet, part of Boden Fortress 18.30 Dinner at Rödbergsfortet.

After hoisting the red flag all over Norway – from the capital in the south to the most remote corner of the North, NORDTING is now ready to take responsibility for the whole Arctic colony. The power is still in the south. The money is still in the south. There are still people who are rich and poor. It’s time to sharpen the arguments. It’s time to bully the capital. It’s time to drink vodka and take a crack course in political theory – all while tears well in your eyes and your hearts burst for a free and independent North. It’s time to let the Reindeer banner wave proudly over the land. 14/11, 17.00 Panel discussion on networks and collaborations between art organisations in the Barents Region. With Kristoffer Dolmen (Sámi Dáiddaguovddáš / Sami Centre for Contemporary Art), Hanna Horsberg Hansen (UiT – The Arctic University of Norway), Jérémie McGowan (Nordnorsk Kunstmuseum), Svein Ingvoll Pedersen, Riitta Kuusikko (Rovaniemi Art Museum). Moderator: Cornelius Stiefenhofer (Havremagasinet Regional Art Gallery) The Barents Region is a political construct created in the 1990s to establish contacts with Russia, which suddenly opened its borders after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. It covers the Northern parts of Scandinavia and parts of Northwest Russia. It is this area that is understood as the core of Sápmi. In this panel we will examine networks and collaborations among some of the art institutions in the region. How have they worked and developed in a climate where this modus operandi is practical and necessary, politically encouraged 6 and traditionally practised? How do art institutions navigate the historical, political and social entanglements and what can art do? Nordnorsk Kunstmuseum is dedicated to creative experimenta- tion, outreach and research on the North. As the art museum for north Norwegian and Sámi art, we advocate northern ideas and perspectives, fostering dialogue between Northern Norway and the world. In 2017 the museum won four national prizes, including “Museum of the Year” from the Norwegian Museums’ Association in recognition of its collaboration with RiddoDuottarMuseat on the museum performance Sámi Dáiddamusea. www.nnkm.no North Norwegian Art Centre (NNKS) is a regional centre for visual art that comprises the entire region of Northern Norway. The art centre’s office, gallery and artist residency are located in Svolvær, Lofoten. NNKS supports projects and regional initiatives in the field of visual art and runs an extensive programme throug- hout Northern Norway. NNKS organises the biennial Lofoten International Art Festival (LIAF). http://www.nnks.no/ Rovaniemi Art Museum is based at the Arctic Circle in Finland. The essential focus of exhibitions, art education and research is the northern dimension, with the museum working actively both locally and internationally. Rovaniemi Art Museum places its main focus on contemporary Finnish art and art in the Arctic. The main collection of the Rovaniemi Art Museum is called Jenny and Antti Wihuri Foundation Art Collection. It is one of the most important contemporary art collections in Finland. Representing a cross-section of Finnish art from the 1940s to the present it comprises over 3,000 works. The collection enjoys a reputation of exceptional quality. http://www.korundi.fi 7 The Contemporary Art Days 2018 / Details About The Programme 14/11 Sámi Dáiddaguovddáš (SDG) / Sami Centre for Contemporary Art was founded in 1986 by the Sami Artists’ Union. Sámi Dáiddaguovddáš became a foundation in 2013, and in 2014 the centre relocated to a new complex in Karasjok. SDG carries out an ambitious programme of exhibitions and events focusing primarily on Sami contemporary art from Norway, Sweden and Finland and also includes other international artists. In the coming year SDG will work on new, in-house solo exhibitions fea- turing artists such as Outi Pieski (FI), Katarina Pirak Sikku (SE), Arnold Johansen (NO), Synnøve Persen (NO) and Rose-Marie Huuva (SE). In addition, the centre collaborates with outside parties on projects and exhibitions both in and beyond Sápmi. http://samidaiddaguovddas.no/ 15/11, 08.45 Panel discussion on financing of networks: Miriam Andersson Blecher (Botkyrka konsthall) Robert Brodén (Swedish Postcode Foundation) Ola Kellgren (Nordic Culture Point) and Caroline Lund (the National Association of Swedish Art Societies). Nordic Culture Point and Swedish Postcode Foundation provide financial support to, among others, networks and collaborations between different types of art organisations in and outside the field of art, in and beyond Sweden.

    CDSG Special Tour to Sweden's Defenses

    CDSG Special Tour to Sweden’s Defenses August 25th to September 3rd, 2021 – Four Months Out One of Three Adjoining Tours Terry McGovern The CDSG and FSG have organized special overlapping tours to Sweden’s defenses in 2021 (subject to developments with the COVID-19 pandemic). This is due to each group’s different focus, mode of transport/lodging, and duration of tour. By providing these tour options, we hope to better serve each of our member’s needs. These tours are being organized by Sweden’s leading fortification tour expert, Lars Hasson, and his tour company, Bunker Tours. He has designed a 9-day tour to the “best” of Sweden’s modern defenses for the CDSG which would take us across the breath of Sweden. He is also organized an 8-day tour for the FSG that would overlap with the CDSG tour so our two groups would travel together for 4 days. You could attend just the FSG tour or just the CDSG tour or both tours for a total of 13 days. Lars has also organized a 2-day “pre-tour” for those who want to see the Cold War defenses around Copenhagen. If you joined all three tours you would have 15 days of both Swedish and Danish fortifications and artillery. The CDSG’s 9-day tour is planned to start and end at Stockholm’s International Airport. You would need to book and pay for your own flights. The round-trip fare from Washington, DC, recently was $1,033 via Iceland. We would use shared rental cars as the size of the tour group would be limited to around 20 members.

Schade, Ph.D. ii Abstract In my dissertation “Atomic Apocalypse – ‘Nuclear Fiction’ in German Literature and Culture,” I investigate the portrayal of the nuclear age and its most dreaded fantasy, the nuclear apocalypse, in German fictionalizations and cultural writings. My selection contains texts of disparate natures and provenance: about fifty plays, novels, audio plays, treatises, narratives, films from 1946 to 2009. I regard these texts as a genre of their own and attempt a description of the various elements that tie them together. The fascination with the end of the world that high and popular culture have developed after 9/11 partially originated from the tradition of nuclear fiction since 1945. The Cold War has produced strong and lasting apocalyptic images in German culture that reject the traditional biblical apocalypse and that draw up a new worldview. In particular, German nuclear fiction sees the atomic apocalypse as another step towards the technical facilitation of genocide, preceded by the Jewish Holocaust with its gas chambers and ovens.

Agricultural villages had been established on the fertile lands along the coast and in the lower portion of the river valley as early as the 13th centurv. A market centre developed on the islands in the Lulea district in the 14th centurv. When the swedish­ Finnish kingdom, supported by the Archbishop of uppsala, expanded into this region as an act of deliberate colonization, to counteract Russian pressure, the present stone church of Gammelstad was built at the turn of the 1Llth centurv.

The southern boundary of Sweden lies in the same latitude as the boundary between Scotland and England, and as Labrador and British Columbia in America; while its northern boundary lies in the same latitude as the northern half of Greenland and the Arctic archipelago of America.
