Photo: VisitOslo.com EXHIBITIONS Cronqvust/Bjørlo/Munch – Head by Head Munchmuseet, 28th October -22nd October, 10:00-16:00 Per Inge Bjørlo and Lena Cronqvist are two of the most pivotal artists in the Nordic region. Their meeting with Munch results in a powerful exhibition that studies and illuminates the loneliness, the fragility and the sorrow within human existence. Since the 1980s, the often-painful existence we have as human beings has been the driving force behind Bjørlo’s art. Cronqvist became a pioneer with the way she incorporated her own private experiences in to her work in order to expose her own sorrow and pain. The exhibition is with a selection of works by Edvard Munch. The result is an exhibition that invites us to reflect upon the deepness and universality of loneliness and impermanency.

  • Notes and Links on Coverage of the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest from ESC Insight
    ESC Insight - www.escinsight.com Notes and Links on coverage of the 2013 Eurovision Song Contest from ESC Insight Compiled by Ewan Spence, Thursday May 23rd, 2013. Introduction ESC Insight is an independent website that covers the world of the Eurovision, including this year's Eurovision Song Contest. Set up in 2010 to act as a new home for BAFTA nominated podcaster Ewan Spence and the two year old “Unofficial Eurovision Podcast”, it promised to deliver in-depth content, analysis, commentary, and knowledgeable articles around the Contest. The approach can be linked to a weekly periodical, contrasting it with daily news sites such as EscXtra. For the 2013 Contest, ESC Insight's core team of journalists remained intact from the 2012 season (Ewan Spence, Sharleen Wright, Samantha Ross, and Steven Newby), and our pool of contributing writers expanded (including John Egan, Monty Moncrieff, John Kennedy O'Connor, Dr Paul Jordan, Roy Delaney, and others). Following on from 2012, our 'long format' video show from Malmo focused on the meet- and-greet interviews from the first week of rehearsals, allowing us to interview every on- stage performer for Eurovision 2013. This was augmented by more traditional long-form interviews, and the return of Terry Vision, our puppet based former commentator forced out of retirement to cover the Contest. Operated by Ewan Spence, this customised Henson Muppet had his own popular series of light-hearted interviews each running between three and five minutes long. We had two additions to our regular coverage this year. The first was our mobile app. 'ESC Commentary' was a joint app with EscXtra, and developed by The Lab, an offshoot of O2 Telefonica is an innovation team that test new ideas & concepts fast, in an open environment.
