Until 16 December you can experience the performance Bjertnæs, Lygre at Trøndelag Theater, which is a collaboration between the visual artist Sverre Bjertnæs and the playwright Arne Lygre. The performance is the result of many years of collaboration between the two artists, where they in different artistic contexts want to unite sculpture and dramatic text. The play is composed of three one-act plays, "Memories of us", "You exist" and "I forget", all of which are about losing a child.

In this conversation, we want to challenge the two to tell about how they work to unite different expressions of art. In what way can meaningful content be expressed in different artistic adaptations, and how do they complement each other? And is it at all meaningful to process all parents' worst nightmare as art?

The conversation is led by Trond Åm, Litteraturhuset, and will be held in Norwegian.

The conversation is a collaboration between Kunsthall Trondheim, Litteraturhuset in Trondheim and Trøndelag Teater.

Tickets: 150/100 kr.

NOTE! Due to the corona situation, only 30 tickets will be sold for this event.
