Artist Diner: Sunday

Sunday April 3: Quite a few people stopped by Salongen on the second and last day of our Artist Diner show, which of course made us very happy.

The Artist Diner set on my Flickr. Here are a few more Artist Diner at Salongen photos, taken by my sister Mari, my husband Sølve (after he got his iPhone he has become an eager photographer - he even posts to his Flickr!) and my friend Øystein.

By the way, the next mini magazine will be published in autumn 2011 and the theme will be folk + nature.

artist diner outtakes

Here are some more outtakes from my contributions to the new project I'm doing with my friend Trine, Artist Diner. If you read the post yesterday, you might have noticed that we are publishing a limited edition mini magazine. The magazine was sent to the printer yesterday and it will be delivered at the end of the week. We are planning to open a Big Cartel shop were you can buy the mini mag and possibly some prints. I will let you know when it's live.

Read more about Artist Diner in yesterday's post and see more outtakes here.

Artist Diner

Remember this sneak peek? Here is finally some more information about this project my friend Trine and I have been working on for some months.

This is Artist Diner:

Artist Diner is a collaboration between people with ideas.

Artist Diner’s hosts are graphic designer Trine Hisdal and copywriter Astrid Hagen Mykletun. We like ideas and are curious about others’ ideas. We like that ideas can be expressed in different ways, through different media. We therefore invite our friends and acquaintances to share their interpretations of given themes.

Artist Diner has four different annual themes. Each theme is presented in a limited edition mini magazine, an exhibition with a selected number of the mini magazine’s contributions, and the website artistdiner.com. The theme will here be presented through unique contributions that are neither part of the mini magazine nor the exhibition. The website is a dynamic part of the project and is open for contributions from anyone.

Artistdiner.com will be launched on Saturday.

The official Artist Diner launch is on Saturday. On Sunday between 12 and 6 pm we invite everyone to visit Salongen in Nykirkeallmenningen 7, Bergen for our little show. Click on the image above to view the full invitation (in Norwegian).

Above are some outtakes from somethings I have worked on lately. It's for the project - mentioned here - that I'm doing with my graphic designer friend Trine. The project is called Artist Diner and will launch in a week, on Saturday April 2. I will tell you more about it soon.

I just finished watching a documentary about planned obsolescence called Pyramids of Waste, Garantert kort levetid in Norwegian. It was very interesting - you should see it too. Find it here. Most of the talking is in English, and a little bit is in German and French. There are Norwegian subtitles. It will only be online until December 14th.

The theme for this documentary is spot on the theme for a new and exciting project I have started together with graphic designer Trine Hisdal (she doesn't have a real online home yet). I will show and tell more about it later, but you can already mark the date April 1st, which will be our official launch and vernissage.

Edit: Siri made me aware that you can not watch the documentary on NRK web TV unless you are in Norway. So sorry to tease you guys! :-(
