Weather Forecast

June - July 2022

​

Jasper Siverts (b. 2000) works with dance as a sculptural practice, often as a choreographer in collaboration with performers. For the new National Museum's opening exhibition "Jeg kaller det kunst" ("I call it art"), he contributed with his work "Weather Forecast". The work is an interpretation of predictions about the future of the museum made by various professionals, both within and outside the art world. With this work, Siverts wants to discuss the function, social mission and possible future of the museum and the exhibition ritual, whether utopian or dystopian. 

​

"Jeg kaller det kunst" (I call it art") was the most comprehensive collection of contemporary art in Norway and explored what is outside and inside art. The exhibition was on display in Lyshallen from June 11 to September 11, 2022.
