Artfolk Art mediation and art consultation The ART + FOLK project aims to make our artist community more accessible to the general public. Stay tuned!

It is thought as an outreach project and the intention is to become a resource to both the artistic community (artists, institutions, galleries, artist run spaces, collectives, etc) and to the people that would like to get closer or are looking to buy art, but find the art scene either intimidating or difficult to navigate. Even though ART + FOLK’s purpose isn’t to speculate on who should be inves

ted on, it is an aim to create a collector base in Bergen and for that to happen, the art community needs to be more accessible. I believe this project can be a way of opening up this communication and accessibility. I see ART + FOLK as a long term project that will settle into the community and that will function because of its collaborative nature. ART + FOLK will mainly function as a blog that will be released in the course of 2017. On the blog, I will interview and introduce local visual artists and different people that make Bergen the vibrant and rich art city it is. ART + FOLK will introduce several ideas in the coming months as to how it aims to reach out to people, but the first of its collaborations will be on the event KUNSTMARKED during this years B-Open. KUNSTMARKED will be a gathering of local professional artists showing work that will be for sale. The market concept aims to step away from the white cube and into a more relaxed and open environment where people can look, enjoy and buy. The artworks displayed will have a sale value no higher than 5000 NOK. The reason for this price limit is to show that there is high quality art that at an affordable price. That will give a chance to potential buyers that wouldn’t normally stretch their budget into the art market, to maybe take a chance. KUNSTMARKED is a collaboration between ART + FOLK, B-Open and Kunstguide.no

ART + FOLK is run by Daniela Ramos Arias, Costa Rican artist and independent producer living and working in Bergen and has the support of Bergen Kommune.

Following up his residency at .studio Luke Drozd () is going to join us for coffee this sunday morning to chat about his process and what all those boxes and piles in his studio are full of.

Luke works across many medias but has a tendency for gathering or collecting the things that most people ignore. After 20ish years, he is examining the archive he has found himself surrounded by.

tune in, and follow .studio for next weeks live studio visits anyway!

Runa Halleraker is a visual artist working in the expanded field of painting, graduating from the MA program at the Art Academy at KMD in Bergen this summer.

Their work is centred around expressing and creating sensory experiences. Through nonfigurative painting and sculpture, words and installation Runa explores with their genderq***r body and mind how the mental world of emotion can manifest materially.

You can drop questions for the artist in the comments or via DM to us!
