Common Fascism
Performance by Alexey Knedlyakovsky 16 may 2014, Kunsthall Stavanger, Norway.
The twig after twig, branch after branch, forgetting about their freedoms, sacrificing their rights, people tend to unite into a single whole, becoming something more than a combination of civic groups. Whether they are driven by a leader or by idea - by and large it is not so important. They are free to choose, to choose their delusions. Gathered together, people do not notice, and often do not want to notice, how their leader, their idea, their dream, tightly tie their community, not leaving an exit outside. With their bodies, with their fates, people have created the ancient symbol of power of czars and the highest officials — the fascia. That's how ordinary fascism is creating. Fascism, which got it's name due to Benito Mussolini, who put the fascia to the emblem of his party. The one who owned fascia joined his country, his people. The one who owns fascia, possesses full power. The one who owns fascia, entitled force to achieve submission to his will.

GewaltKunstWerk Exhibition at Kristiansand Kunsthall 24.11-31.12 2012
You, reader & beholder: Welcome to the GewaltKunstWerk exhibition and the morbid universe of the 3rd Regiment Berlin. Our intention as artists is to subject you to a massive attack by creative means, to challenge your aesthetic preferences and possible propensities for safety & security. We want you to leave our halls in an excited & heated emotional state. We want to move & seduce you, threaten & transport you into an awareness of the beauty of the GewaltKunstWerk, or the violent work of art.
GewaltKunstWerk is a project bringing artists from opposite camps together, with retrogarde painters facing artists of the avantgarde. The one common denominator for GewaltKunstWerk is, as the title implies, the work of art as a vehicle for destructive & violent forces, be it erosion, obli- vion or war between nations, groups or individuals.
Art is war & the sacred calling of the artist as soldier & fighter in the world of symbols.
Art is everything we can get away with. Art is what we are willing to die for.
Thomas Kvam's art reflects on the Columbine school shooting on April 20th, 1999. Jennie Hagevik Bringaker dissects & explores the idea of the uniform. Christopher Rådlund represents Scandinavia in a post-apocalyp- tic state. Morten Traavik stages an operation where White Knights appear in the roles of rock stars, the declared insane, terrorists, UN peacekeepers, aid workers & artists. Sindre Foss Skancke rapes & pillages the hagiogra- phic tradition in his monumental paintings. Dennis Rudolph etches his way through utopian & dystopian themes from the histories German & Germanic. Valnoir tackles the topic of terrorism in a controversial revam- ping of the rightwing populist discourse. Jens Stegger Ledaal created the Art Militia & creates ominous field sculptures based on the hexagon.

Bergen Travel Guide - Norway Magical Time
Bergen Travel Guide - Norway Magical Time
Bergen is the second largest city in Norway and the most popular gateway to the fjords of West Norway. The city is renowned for its beautiful nature and offers excellent hiking opportunities in its immediate surroundings. Having fostered many of Norway's greatest bands and artists, the city is also famous for its cultural life and underground/indie music scene.
Founded around 1070 AD, Bergen quickly evolved into one of the most important cities in Norway. It was the country's administrative capital from the early 1200s until 1299, and the largest city in Scandinavia. Bergen was one of the most important bureau cities of the Hanseatic League, interconnecting continental Europe with the northern and coastal parts of Norway, thus becoming a central spot for the vending of stockfish and the commercial hot spot in Norway. It was the largest city in Norway until the 1830's and has a long maritime history in shipping and finance.
The city still has relics of its Hanseatic heyday, most notably the old harbor of Bryggen, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Bergen has been ravaged by several fires; the most recent major fire took place in 1916, a fire which destroyed most of the buildings in what is today the central parts of the city center, centered around the large square Torgallmenningen.
Bergen is located far west in Norway, sheltered from the North Sea only by a number of islands. It is situated along latitude 60 degrees north (as are Oslo, Stockholm, Helsinki, Saint Petersburg and Anchorage). The city is the most hilly and mountainous in Norway. The city center is surrounded by a group of mountains and peaks known as the Seven Mountains, a defining characteristic which has given the city its name (berg is an old Norse word for mountain). The geographic conditions of the city are very visible; limited space to build on made it necessary in the 19th century that new city blocks be built on the steep slopes of mount Fløyen.
Bergen is one of the most important cultural centers in Norway. The city is the home of the Bergen International Festival, Nattjazz and Bergenfest, festivals of international renown within their genres. The local symphony orchestra, Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, was founded in 1786. It is one of the world's oldest orchestral institutions. Bergen was the home of Norway's great composer, Edvard Grieg. Henrik Ibsen, the famous playwright, started his career in Bergen as manager of Den Nationale Scene.
Within the city center, walking is the best way to get around. You can walk across the downtown in 20 minutes in any direction. A light rail line runs between the city centre and southwards to the airport. This is the primary means of public communication to southern parts of Bergen. The line passes the railway station, the bus station, Brann soccer stadium, the student homes at Fantoft and Nesttun along the route.
There is a great variety of restaurants and cafes in Bergen, but you should expect to spend some time looking for the best places. In the most central parts of the city, many of the restaurants are all the same. Move a block away from the most central parts of downtown to find lower prices and better food. Kitchens usually close at 11PM at the latest.
Outside the summer season, getting a hotel room is usually not a problem, although it can be quite expensive unless you have a reservation. In the summer season (from May to Sept) a reservation well in advance is required. Breakfast is normally included in the price except at hostels and camping sites.

The Bergen Designer T-Michael
The Bergen based designer T-Michael is experiencing success with the elegant rain coats he has designed for the brand Norwegian Rain. He feels the rain makes people more creative. It has a tendency to usher people indoors, and this makes for a cohesive energy in the city that inspires a lot of art crossover. «If the weather is inhospitable, we might as well get together and be a little crazy!» he says.
