New Visions
Editing,The second edition of the Henie Onstad Triennial for Photography and New Media, titled “New Visions,” brings together works by 22 artists. The exhibition explored urgent questions relating to energy production and distribution, the extraction of natural and humanmade resources—from oil to data—and the ecological, social and political consequences of these ventures. The artists have ties to Norway, the Middle East, North Africa, Eastern Europe and Central Asia; regions that are connected by extractive economies.
I copy edited the catalogue, which includes a foreword by Caroline Ugelstad, a curatorial statement by Inga Lāce, Reem Shadid, and Susanne Østby Sæther, an essay by scholar Eglė Rindzevičiūtė, and short texts on each artist’s work. I also copy edited all of the wall labels in the exhibition.
