Guerilla Girls

Guerilla Girls,
9-11 June 2017
K4 Gallery
København gata 4, Oslo.

Guerilla Girls is the first national non-profit festival for moving images featuring contemporary Norwegian female artists. The three day festival explores Norway's female art scene today with an emphasize on the female gaze. In what way does the art scene and film industry reflect female consciousness today? How do Norwegian women digests feminism and how do they self-identify when constructing art, particularly in film? Guerilla Girls aims to create a free, non-competitive space for women to come together and share their experiences as working artists. It will work to foster relationships within the artist community, while questioning the boundaries created by gender.

The festival takes place in K4, a small non-profit video art gallery in Oslo, Grunerløkka, the 9-11 th. of June 2017. Guerilla Girls is an ongoing consciousness and dialogue curated by feminist artist and gallerist Jenny Marie Hviding Schjerven.

For the third consecutive year artists with studios in Olaf Ryes Plass 2 will show work at Atelier Nord ANX during Oslo Open. Additionally, the screening programme Open Video, curated by Janne Talstad, will be shown.

The screening programme Video Open stems from the idea that open sources should be made freely available, to be reused and shared. As such, the video programme Open Video can be changed by both by participating artists and the curator over time. The selection of participants takes the old Art Academy in St. Olavs gt. 32 and the Oslo art scene as its point of departure. This was also the basis for last year’s programme. Still the Academy was a starting point, not a conclusion.
