The exhibition is about the idea of a special Nordic culture. The Nordic is in high demand, from politics and welfare for the kitchen and design, and this year’s exhibition comes with a vision of what Nordic actually is – and what these ideas mean for our development of society and culture.

Louisiana has for a number of reasons been celebrated for its architecture exhibitions. Mainly because they break with professional bigotry, and crosses both artistic statements and architectural realities with each other. Also they are famous for taking advantage of the museum space and the situation completely. You are never away from an architecture exhibition at Louisiana, one is always in the middle of it.

Some days we design cabins. Other days we move cities. We can’t wait!

Fantastic Norway will lecture about their working methods and how to create culturally aware, sustainable and local developments.

Fantastic Norway will also be checking out a few potential projects for the practice throughout Mexico.

This year and perhaps for years to come, Fantastic Finland will continue to work with architecture from a bottom up perspective and evolving the methods established by Aasarød/Haffner in 2004-2007, futher. We expect fantastic projects and stunts to occur in Finnish forests, towns and cities during in the months to come.

We will be following Fantastic Finland closely and hope to establish Fantastic Sweden, Fantastic Denmark and who knows – maybe Fantastic Brazil in a not too distant future.

Let us know if you’re up for the challenge!

For decades the slides from the lectures remained tucked away in an attic in Nesodden. Saturday 29th of October at 1900 the slides will see the light of the projector once again, at Internasjonalen on Youngstorget.

The windows in Slide City are disjointed pieces of Per’s stories. Each window is a fragment of his life, thoughts and stories. Not unlike the fragments we see of other people’s life every day, through windows and brief meetings. Fragments you put together to new stories and fictions.

Dress up in your blackest clothing and have a glimpse at Per’s Slide City and enjoy drinks from Per’s selection of beverages!
