031 - Gereon Krebber

Just in town for a couple of weeks Gereon made it over to my podcast studio. He arrived a bit shaken and in shock of having witnessed a car accident where a woman died. We both didn't really know how to address it but we send our love to the family and friends of the woman who died.
Then we spoke about the groupshow he organized at Fellesverkstedet for Praksis Oslo named Monumental — Temporal // The Work.
Sculpture, studio, production and all that jazz.

030 - Charlotte Hagelund

Before the summer I had the pleasure to talk to Charlotte Hagelund.
Together with Jan Christensen she started the consulting platform called Hagelund/Christensen.
They are looking to find new structures and business models for visual arts that will create a healthier art industry, in which far more people be able to access and appreciate art, and where artists get the support they need to focus and evolve in what they do best; making art.
This theme of improving the lives of artists and finding different and more healthy strategies is very dear to my heart so I hope you enjoy our talk!

029 - Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson

Sveinn's work has this urge to map, to collect, to categorize without being too much of a statement. These observation although often based in photography become installations, publications, sculptures and the likes.
We also talk about how his publishing relates to his practice and what it means to be a publisher.

Check out his work and read his books!

028 - Graham Hayward

If you ever wondered how it is to chase a dream and actually realizing it the people at Fellesverkstedet are doing just that!
I managed to snatch Graham from the amazing new facility at Seilduksgaten in Oslo. Since the building site wasn't legally fit to use for the podcast we decided to go to the current center of operation in old town (Tøyen). In the two hours that followed he talked me through much of the history and how they arrived at this exciting new junction for fellesverkstedet.
