Photo: VisitOslo.com EXHIBITIONS Pushwagner – The Machine is Calling, Kunsthall Oslo, Until 19th August at 12:00 - 19.00 Hariton Pushwagner’s visionary epic Soft City (1969–75) is one of the greatest works of the Norwegian avant- garde, both a mesmerising visual experiment and a panoramic satire on a modern society devoted to bureaucracy, conformity, consumerism, fascism and war. Rooted in Pushwagner’s collaboration with the writer Axel Jensen, Soft City was unprecedented at the time of its creation. Pushwagner’s injection of Dostoevsky, Kafka, Joyce, Warhol, Gysin, Piero della Francesca, Dada and anti-psychiatry into the comic art format anticipated the rise of the graphic novel a decade later, and Soft City is now counted as a masterpiece of the genre. The exhibition The Machine Is Calling: Soft City and Unseen Works presents – for the first time in Oslo – all 154 original drawings for Soft City. Also on show will be some of Pushwagner’s newest paintings, a number of recently rediscovered drawings made in London during the 1970s, and large-scale paintings made for Axel Jensen’s house in Ålefjær, none of which have been exhibited before. The exhibition is accompanied by a new publication, Hariton Pushwagner – A Warning To Society, which includes an extended interview with the artist. Hariton Pushwagner (1940-2018) attended the Statens Kunstakademi (National Academy of Art, Oslo) in the mid- 1960s and studied and worked in Oslo, London, Stockholm, New York and Paris.

You'll get to explore several existing projects from both Norway and abroad that exemplify this line of thinking. The exhibition has information available in English.

Mellom hus med lyse hager og høyblokker med store skyggesider. Farget fra grått og brunt til rødt, og fra rødt til fargerikt. Har det man trenger, eller vil ha. Preget av de lystige, og de alvorstyngede. Besøkt av de som kommer herfra, og derfra. Shoppingmotiverte, matinteresserte, mangfoldsinspirerte, søknadsskjema- frustrerte. Elsket av de som har litt og av de som har alt. Løftet frem av hele Oslo. Lever hver dag fra tidlig til sent, våkner uthvilt opp og omfavner den neste. Hver dag, dag etter dag, etter dag.

  • Det Første Pornobålet Brant På Olaf Ryes Plass 27. August 1977
    Det første pornobålet brant på Olaf Ryes plass 27. august 1977. 162 FOTO: BERNT EIDE / KLASSEKAMPEN / ARBARK TRINE ROGG KORSVIK Jentene på Holmenkolbanen Pornokamp og «AKP-bråk» i fagbevegelsen på 1970-tallet I august 1977 kom pornokampen til Norge. Utover høsten stormet aksjo- nister fra kvinnebevegelsen pornobutikker der de forsynte seg med blader som de tok med seg til torgs og brant på bål. Tabloidavisene mesket seg i fortellinger om rasende militante kvinner og mafiøse porno- gangstere. Høsten 1977 satte Senterkvinnene i gang en tverrpolitisk aksjon mot pornografi. Aksjonen utviklet seg etter hvert til å bli den brede bevegelsen Fellesaksjonen mot pornografi og prostitusjon, som i 1983 samlet nesten 40 landsomfattende organisasjoner som represen- terte bortimot en halv million medlemmer.1 At pornokampen i Norge ble utløst av en arbeidskonflikt på Holmenkol- banen, er nok mindre kjent enn fortellingene om de oppsiktsvekkende pornobålene. Den såkalte Holmenkolbanesaken begynte med at konduk- tører spontant reiv ned reklameplakater for «mannfolkbladet» Nye Alle Menn som hang i t-banevognene. To unge kvinnelige sommervikarer, Liv og Rannveig, ble utpekt som ansvarlige for aksjonen og suspendert. De to mente seg utsatt for en politisk oppsigelse og hevdet sin rett til å aksjonere mot forhold på arbeidsplassen som de mente var kvinnedis- kriminerende. Men de fikk liten støtte av de tillitsvalgte ved Holmenkol- banen (HKB), en arbeidsplass som i 1970-åra var preget av harde konflikter mellom marxist-leninister og Arbeiderpartimedlemmer. Til gjengjeld mobiliserte aktivister fra kvinnebevegelsen til støtte for de to jentene, og denne kampanjen ble fra første stund satt i sammenheng med kamp mot pornografi.

  • Planprogram for Ny T-Banetunnel – Innspill Og Merknader Fra Oslo Elveforum
    Ruter AS Postboks 1030 Sentrum 0104 Oslo Vår saksbehandler: Are Eriksen 26. oktober 2017 PLANPROGRAM FOR NY T-BANETUNNEL – INNSPILL OG MERKNADER FRA OSLO ELVEFORUM Oslo Elveforum arbeider for å gjenåpne lukkede elve- og bekkestrekninger og gjøre byens vassdrag friske og rene, og for at det etableres grønne parkdrag med turveier og stier langs elver og bekker. I vårt merknadsbrev til KVU Oslo-Navet trakk vi fram en rekke potensielle konflikter mellom blågrønn infrastruktur og regiontog, S-bane, T-bane og trikk, og fant det i den forbindelse naturlig også å kommentere trasévalget for ny T-banetunnel gjennom Oslo sentrum. Våre kommentarer til forslag til planprogram for ny T-banetunnel er dermed en oppfølging av vårt høringsinnspill til KVU Oslo-Navet. Oslo Elveforum har følgende innspill til oppstart av planarbeid for detaljregulering, og merknader til høringsutkast til planprogram for konsekvensutredning, av ny T-banetunnel gjennom Oslo sentrum: • Høringsinnspillene til KVU Oslo-Navet om valg av trasé for ny T-banetunnel ble ikke vurdert • Det underslås at KS1 ikke har funnet grunnlag for å gi en anbefaling om valg av T-banetrasé • «Optimalisert trasé» i Nasjonal transportplan 2018–2029 må tolkes romslig • Føringene fra den eksterne kvalitetssikringen (KS1) og fra byrådet (v/MOS) er tydelige • Ruter tolker seg bort fra bestillingen fra MOS, mens PBE har betenkeligheter knyttet til dette • Planområdet er for snevert til å kunne utrede ulike traséalternativer og stasjoner/oppganger • Manglende oppfølging av KS1 kan få konsekvenser for statens finansiering av T-banetunnelen • Planprogrammet må revideres grundig og planområdet utvides kraftig • Argumentasjonen for å legge T-banestasjonen på Grünerløkka ved Nybrua holder ikke vann • Planprogrammets utredningsalternativ 1 er altfor snevert utformet • Mulige konfliktpunkter mellom ny T-banetunnel og blågrønn infrastruktur synes ivaretatt i planprogrammet Oslo Elveforums innspill og merknader utdypes nedenunder.

  • Siân Adiseshiah University of Lincoln, UK [email protected] The
    Siân Adiseshiah University of Lincoln, UK [email protected] The unbridgeable bridge to utopia: Howard Brenton’s Greenland Written and performed just after Thatcher’s third election victory in Britain in 1987, Howard Brenton’s Greenland is an isolated example durinG this period of a Left playwright’s attempts to represent utopia on staGe. Unlike the savaGely satirical approaches of other Left plays around the same time, such as Brenton and David Hare’s Pravda and Caryl Churchill’s Serious Money (both sardonic travesties of the riGht-winG press and the City of London in Thatcher’s Britain) Greenland attempts to reconstruct a utopian future. The second act of Greenland partially resembles a utopian space usually encountered in a conventional utopian narrative, and in doinG so, has led some commentators to dismiss the play as tedious and lackinG in dramatic interest. Its lack of conflict and the contentment of its inhabitants have led to it being described as static and dull. This interpretation has brouGht with it a readinG that concurs with the character, Severan-Severan, whose view is that misery and sufferinG are essential to the human condition and that liberation is a living death. However, this approach neglects a more complex engagement with utopia that can be traced in the play. Spectators of the play - along with the non-utopian character, Joan - respond to Greenland in a way that can be illuminated by Frederic Jameson’s idea of the ‘terror of obliteration’. This paper will explore ways in which Greenland exposes psycho-political barriers to utopia, barriers that frame the spectator’s view of the play, and it will also reveal ways in which bridGes to utopia are constantly at stake.

III © Linda O. Bekkevold 2014 Apokalypse Linda O. Bekkevold http://www.duo.uio.no/ Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo IV Sammendrag Pushwagner blir ofte omtalt som popkunstner og Norges svar på Andy Warhol (1923-1987) og Roy Lichtenstein (1923-1997). Sammenligningen begrunnes med hans benyttelse av tegneserieestetikk. Med stiliserte former og fargeflater. Dette er en gjenkjennende karakteristikk av den amerikanske popkunsten klisjéfylte tegneserieuttrykk. Denne oppfatningen nevnes ofte i en bisetning uten at det foreligger noen kunsthistorisk analyse som har undersøkt dette. Pushwagner samarbeidet med den norske forfatteren Axel Jensen (1932- 2002) på 1960-tallet, og sammen skapte de et tegneserieunivers som skulle bli grunnlaget for Pushwagners kunstnerskap. På 1970-tallet og 1980-tallet arbeidet de med flere utkast og upubliserte bokprosjekter som ble utviklet til billedromanen Soft City, silketrykkserien En dag i familien Manns liv og malerifrisen Apokalypse. I denne avhandlingen søker jeg svar på hvordan Pushwagner benytter seg av tegenserieestetikken i sitt kunstuttrykk. Hva slags tradisjon benyttes i hans verk? Og kan man med rette karakterisere Pushwagner som popkunstner? Problemstillingene er verksorientert, og jeg tar utgangspunkt i maleriet Jobkill (1990), men det vil bli trukket paralleller til andre verk av kunstneren. I oppgavens tolkningsdel vil jeg trekke inn komparativt materiale fra popkunsten. V VI VII Forord I 2010-2012 hadde jeg gleden av å jobbe i et av Norges nyoppstartede gallerier, Galleri Pushwagner.
