CONVERSATION WITH FREDRIK LUND | OSLO > TRONDHEIM

We walk randomly around the center of Oslo, we transit through gorgeous architectural scenarios. The center of the Norwegian artscene shows a mixture of romanticism and ratioanalism. We stop at Litterturhuset for a coffee, lots of smiles and people enjoying great food. We walk up the hill to check The Vigeland park and down again to visit the museum of architecture designed by Sverre Fehn, the only norwegian pritzker Price.

We walk around models and installations, where cool emerging norwegian architects under 40 show their latest ideas. Fredrik Lund was twice represented in this show, before he reached his forties, a unique case. We walk the streets again buying ice creams and sparkling water, walking along the Oslo government buildings and arrived at the harbor, next to the Snøhetta studio. We smoke by the water and talk about the current works.

A day later, we are travelling together across the country, passing mythical mountains, and stopping for dinner at the most traditional restaurants, tasting the moose and deer burgers by the national road, across the great park of Rondane. The dinner saloon is very old fashioned, we sit surrounded by stuffed weasels. As we leave the area, we stop briefly at the concrete architecture by his colleague Carl-Viggo Holmebakk, and catch the amazing views to the mountains we will soon be crossing.

Already in the city of Trondheim, we visit Fredriks artist's atelier at the NTNU, here he developes his professorship in architectural teachings, teaching as art. We know Fredrik now for ten years. Fredrik loves to visit Madrid, and to spend hours at the Reina Sofia Museum, studying the spanish and american masters in abstractions from the sixties. We have travelled to Cuenca together, where there is also a great collection of Spanish abstract painters, all surrounded by amazing landscapes, Fredriks main inspiration for his art. The fresh air and the view.

Just by framing the view the whole architectural concept has started, and that is the potential of the architecture of Lund, the empathy with the surroundings and the absolute control of the human activity that will happen inside the wooden walls. We are now ready to make dinner, another daily ritual, where Fredrik acts as guardian of the wonders of hot potatoes with butter and several fresh fish on a warm pan. While we eat in silence, we understand the ritual.

El carpintero toma las medidas para puertas y ventanas, y aparecen todos los demás y miden y van a su taller y trabajan. Y luego el campesino remueve un gran perol con cal y hace la casa de un hermoso blanco. Conserva, sin embargo, la brocha, pues por la pascua del año que viene volverá a necesitarla. Él ha querido levantar una casa para sí y para los suyos y para su ganado, y lo ha logrado. Igual que pudo su vecino o su bisabuelo. Como puede cualquier animal que se deja llevar por sus instintos. ¿Es la casa hermosa? Sí, tan hermosa como lo son la rosa o el cardo, el caballo o la vaca. Y, vuelvo a preguntar: ¿por qué un arquitecto, tanto el bueno como el malo, deshonra el lago? El arquitecto no tiene, como casi ningún habitante de la ciudad, cultura alguna. Le falta la seguridad del campesino, que posee cultura. El habitante de la ciudades un desarraigado. Llamo cultura a aquel equilibrio de la persona interior y exterior, lo único que posibilita un pensar y un actuar razonable. Hasta ahora, la historia de la humanidad no contaba con ningún período falto de cultura. Pero entonces aparecieron falsos profetas. Dijeron: qué fea y qué triste es nuestra vida. Y lo reunieron todo de todas las culturas, lo expusieron en museos y dijeron: mirad, eso es belleza, pero vosotros vivís en una deplorable fealdad. Ahí había muebles que eran como casas, llenos de columnas y molduras, ahí había terciopelo y seda. Ahí había, sobre todo, ornamentos.

ART ALSO SHINES IN PERIPHERIES
HEIMDAL ART CENTER - TRONDHEIM NORWAY
19.10.13 - 2PM

Turid Mathiesen Kvålsvoll artist and director bring us by car. She has worked for years as member in the art association. Recently she has moved to the leading position at the direction board, together with Lotte Evenser artist and board member. Both of them share the vision on the art they want to exhibit. The feeling of slight depression among independent artist has now left the atmosphere, and their will to strengthen the visibility of great art and ideas is their main goal.
The house where the shows are exhibited is nice and big. Four rooms includes now the artworks of Markus Lantto, sweedish artist that moves comfortably in the arenas of ready mades, furniture as art, site specific installations and kitchy memories. The first room has been lowered the sealing. It is a simple and powerfull piece, the whole room is lowered to Markus height. No objects, just a low wooden sky on your head. The weight of compression is a great ingredient. Next room presents three pieces in a dialogue. One is a ready made, there is a floor piece made of hundreds of wooden leftovers, and two wall stick-pieces made of wood as one material. The third room contains a diversity of photographies and small objects, a display of memories and kitchy humor. The fourth room contains a videoart loop, where a lady speaks to camera about ordinary facts, while Markus and his collegue Per Kristian Nygård fully naked, move furnitures around the house.

After visiting the show we sit upstairs, in the private area, to have coffee and chocolates (a local standard) and talk about the heimdal project. The conversation is joined by Astrid Wallster Holdbakk, pioneer and founder of HKF and Øyvind Evenser art phd student, researching on the documents that distribute performance art. We show our interest in building alliances for the coming years with all agents in the city. We artists are not competing but promoting each others. We like that idea.

Hoy la mayoría de las casas gusta sólo a dos personas: al propietario y al arquitecto. La casa tiene que gustar a todos. A diferencia de la obra de arte, que no tiene que gustar a nadie. La obra de arte es asunto privado del artista. La casa no lo es. La obra de arte se introduce en el mundo sin que exista necesidad para ello. La casa cumple una necesidad. La obra de arte no debe rendir cuentas a nadie, la casa a cualquiera. La obra de arte quiere arrancar a las personas de su comodidad. La casa tiene que servir a la comodidad. La obra de arte es revolucionaria, la casa es conservadora. La obra de arte enseña nuevos caminos a la humanidad, piensa en el futuro. La casa piensa en el presente. La persona ama todo lo que sirve para su comodidad. Odia todo lo que quiera arrancarle de su posición acostumbrada y asegurada y le abruma. Y por ello ama la casa y odia el arte.

CONVERSATION WITH TORHILD AUKAN | LKV 2013

outdoor living has shaped her relationship with life and art

WHERE
We visit her in her atelier at LKV, where we lectured some days ago. It feels like coming home, to a large warm building full of artists at work. We arrive and get a cup of warm tea, it is a rainy day, we crossed the city walking with our umbrellas. Now we sit in the room Torhild uses as office.

PHILOSOPHICAL STATMENT
What Torhild explained as first statement is her sensual way of experiencing nature, the surroundings. The idea of being part of nature. The body as research, the existence as an investigation field, and the art as a tool of expression. The philosophy behind this statement makes us think in certain nordic existentialism, where there is no clear limit between nature and philosophy, a scratch into spinozian pantheism. We watch a film she did some 20 years ago, and we get the idea. Black and white elements of nature, and the presence of the body, the body of him, and her own. The film is short and shows the statement. A poem.

ORIGIN
Torhild spent many years living outdoors. Outdoors meaning out in the nature, in the forest, where she lived in a cabin, before having her kids, and with her kids. That outdoor living, has shaped her relationship with life and art. Most of her works are recognizable because of the repetitive pattern she has taken for the representation of the idea. The so called technique or method.

METHOD
Photography is a starting point of most of her works, the look, the idea, the capture of time. Then that capture is transformed in the dark room, a room of silence. The work takes the size of the wood plates she has used as canvas. Norwegian wood. The use of pigments, chemicals and light exposure makes the image appear on the wood. The cyanotype is always blue, a blue close to the Klein Blue, adding the faded image of the photographed body coming out, and the graphic pattern of the wood.

NOW
The body fading is now her own, we see the evolution of the idea, from the small scale with many images, to large size, with a single one. Torhild has recently travelled to China as resident to produce works, and is making evolutions on her concept, making it clearer and sharper.This conversation is part of the STRUCTURAL BASIS of FROZEN HEAT,

El nombre de Brakhage se ha convertido prácticamente en sinónimo de cine experimental, y aunque la larga lista de sus innovaciones -que incluye un montaje vertiginoso, casi cegador, y la manipulación de la película con pintura, collage, incisiones o raspaduras- explique en gran medida esta reputación, es la densidad intelectual y el carácter no-narrativo de su cine, casi abstruso, lo que en muchos sentidos ha caracterizado al cine experimental de vanguardia, no tanto para el especialista como pára el público que se atreve a adentrarse en las peligrosas aguas del cine no comercial. No obstante, a pesar de lo variado de sus atribuciones, Brakhage es definitivamente un pintor. Comenzó pintando el celuloide en 1961, en la segunda parte de Dog Star Man, que trata el nacimiento de su segundo hijo, y en Thigh Line Lyre Triangular, también de 1961, que incluye el nacimiento de su tercer hijo. Lo que le motivaba era presentar o replicar lo que él llamaba "visión hipnagógica". El diccionario define hipnagógico como "relacionado o asociado con el estado que precede al sueño", pero Brakhage lo describe como lo que vemos al cerrar los ojos. En una conversación de 2000 con Bruce Kawin, compañero suyo en la Universidad de Colorado en Boulder, señala lo siguiente: El espectador puede cerrar los ojos y no mirar la película, y, aun así, al mismo tiempo seguir viéndola en su cabeza. Se llama visión hipnagógica. Cuando cerramos los ojos, todos nosotros poseemos un de la luz". Sus imágenes son translúcidas, aunque a veces se difuminan y parecen los titilantes luminosos de las calles. En muchos de sus escritos y entrevistas, el director afirma que sus filmes tratan sobre "la luz". Autores que han escrito sobre Brakhage apuntan que cuando habla de la luz se refiere a los objetos en sus películas y subraya que lo que es importante no es el objeto en sí, sino la luz que refleja.

Stan Brakhage es un pintor. 

Sin duda.

CONVERSATION WITH BRIT DYRNES | ATELIER ILSVIKA - HUB - TRONDHEIM | 2013

LLLL ART AGENCY AT
ATELIER ILSVIKA | HUB TRONDHEIM
art, design, fashion, architecture

BRIT DYRNES guides us through ATELIER ILSVIKA, a HUB sitting in a remodeled factory space in the neighbourhood of the same name in the outskirts of the city of Trondheim. About three years ago a group of artists, architects and designers, leaded by BRIT DYRNES, negotiated with a local bussinesman, owner of the building, to make a nice working space. They did, and started to use the space as daily office. There is a large space with kitchen and big table to have meetings, and everyone has a fixed place in the building, depending on the need of space of each one.

We walk for an hour with BRIT visiting the different working areas, and we got to know the spirit of the HUB, a crossdisciplainary mood across the spaces. We talked to several people, mostly woman. The last one to join the ILSVIKA is a young fashion designer who just arrived from New York. We enjoyed meeting painter and drawer Anne Kristin Myrseth, that showed us her artist books. Very interesting also the talk with Randi Bakken, coach and entrepreneur. She explained the great potential of sharing knowledge with uppcomers, making their ideas possible with visions and market oriented ideas.

At last, Brit gave us a full review on her artworks and site projects, public art and installations. She likes to collaborate with other artists, and loves to run the management of ILSVIKA. This year they have launched a new idea named NORTH CULTITUDE, a project that will enlarge  the spam of the HUB to other HUBS  across the northern regions. We would like to present our ideas soon in ILSVIKA, in one of the open Fridays, where people Can have a drink after work and enjoy the lecture.

VITAMIN 002 (I/-)

If space-junk is the human debris that litters the universe, junk-space is the residue mankind leaves on the planet. The built (more about that later) product of modernization is not modern architecture but Junkspace. Junkspace is what remains after modernization has run its course or, more precisely, what coagulates while modernization is in progress, its fall-out. Modernization had a rational program: to share the blessings of science, universally. Junkspace is its apotheosis, or meltdown... Although its individual parts are the outcome of brilliant inventions, lucidly planned by human intelligence, boosted by infinite computation, their sum spells the end of Enlightenment, its resurrection as farce, a low-grade purgatory... Junkspace is the sum total of our current achievement; we have built more than all previous generations together, but somehow we do not register on the same scales. We do not leave pyramids. According to a new gospel of ugliness, there is already more Junkspace under construction in the 21st century than survived from the 20th...

Rem Koolhaas JUNKSPACE

Rem Koolhaas is the founder and director of the Office for Metropolitan Architecture (OMA), a Rotterdam based firm concerned with contemporary architecture and urbanism. Since 1975 OMA has been involved in numerous projects ranging from private residences to large scale urban planning. As a result of several projects, notably the Villa dall'Ava overlooking the Eiffel Tower, Nexus Housing, and the planning of Euralille, a business and civic center hosting the major high speed train hub in the north of France, OMA has had an enormous impact on contemporary architecture and urban issues throughout the world. In the 21st century OMA is active throughout Europe and the United States including a series of museum projects. OMA has a branch in New York and an associated office in Hong Kong, OMA Asia. A new branch, AMO, has been established with a primary focus on research. AMO will collect forces from media, finance, technology and art to consult in the architectural thinking where strategy and concept have a higher importance than realisation.
