We are thrilled to commence our spring season with the exhibition Anthropology Archaeology Apology by the artist duo Bakketun & Norum. Please join us for the opening, Thursday 18 January between 6-8 pm!

Andrea Bakketun was most recently on view at Kunstnerforbundet (Oslo) with her separate show Puck this October/November. Christian Tony Norum is currently showing new work at Galleri K (Oslo) until January 14, 2018. Bakketun & Norum have operated as an artist duo sidelining their own practises since 2012. Their exhibitions and performances have found place in amongst other places Kunstforeningen GL STRAND, Copenhagen; UKS (Young Artists’ Society), Oslo; Papay Gyro Art Nights Festival, Orkney Islands and Cattle Depot Artist Village, Hong Kong.

The duo explores their surroundings in an intuitive manner, the architectural and physical qualities of place, as well as objects, traces of a personal stories or historical events. Bakketun & Norum’s collaboration form a third expression, where two wide-scoping practises come together and collide. The exhibition will present a full installation which will move through Oslo Kunstforening’s three rooms. The installation will include sculpture, video, oilpainting, acrylics and chemicals on paper.

Bakketun & Norum was awarded the Savings Bank Foundation DNB’s art grant at Oslo Kunstforening in 2015.
