In July there will be a guided tour every Saturday, 1pm, in the exhibition noe beveger seg sakte i en annen retning [something is slowly moving in a different direction] at Kunsthall Trondheim.

noe beveger seg sakte i en annen retning [something is slowly moving in a different direction] is an exhibition presenting five young Sami artists together with one of the most influential and well known – Iver Jåks (1932 – 2007). Participating artists: Sissel M. Bergh, Carola Grahn, Ragna Misvær Grønstad, Niilas Helander, Iver Jåks and Silje Figenschou Thoresen.

The title of the exhibition refers both to Iver Jåks view on art – which is also present in the younger artists’ practices – and to an increasing interest and respect for the Sami cultures. The different artist practises in the exhibition focus on processes of dissolution and rewriting of history, language and an extended notion of the Sami identity.
