Bøger om Freedom

What is artistic freedom? Something you take for granted in the Nordic countries? Yes, most people would probably say. But perhaps this is not the case at all? After all, does freedom really feel completely free when you as an artist need to please large foundations or well-established museums? How do you express yourself artistically in hyper-sensitive times? And in which direction is art moving towards in a digital age?This anthology explores artistic freedom through a wide variety of texts. All contributors are concerned with the topic – each in their own way – ranging from the legal and practical aspects to the personal and experiential. Like a kaleidoscope, the anthology illuminates different ways of looking at the subject.The anthology is published by a/nordi/c – a think tank that from 2021-2023 worked to bring the practice of the art world and the political reality closer together.The following people have written contributions in the book:CARSTEN STAURANNI SYRJÄLÄINENSARA WHYATTFREDERIK TYGSTRUPADELHEID ESHITOK SEYFARTH GULBRANDSENKHALED BARAKEHJENNI LAITISANDRA WEILOLE REITOVHEIKI RIIPINENANNA JUULCHRISTIAN VILLUMKRISTOFFER ØRUMSTINA GUSTAFSSONELINE SIGFUSSONSIGNE WULFF

It visibly made her very confused. She looked slightly embarrassed but then pulled herself together and said loudly: “It is my chair”. When I explained that it was a common Western custom that men hold the chair for ladies at dinner parties, she and the rest of the Afghans laughed loudly. “Here in Afghanistan, men still take the chair from the women,” they said. There are many cultural differences. But she, impressively, stood up for her rights even in front of a Danish minister. It was her chair.
