(An Unlimited Idea of the North) 

Three essential figures of Norwegian art to investigate a country that seems off the crazy compass of standardized contemporary paths, but still appears to look on our times an existential geography without borders. Three artists who taught me a lot about the country. They are diviners, and the springs pointed out, by movements, textures and light collages, have a solid link to the place. The opportunity to contemplate and test a new landscape that, while specific, is not woven in the canonical motifs of Scandinavian naturality. . Through their works, the new philosophy of Norwegian culture, offspring of oil-generated wealth, no longer correlates to the country's cultural rhetoric. (…) The North thus becomes a space to explore and experience, cutting a path through the fog of contemporaneity.
