SUMMARY:Edvard Munch's Photography: The Experimental Self
DESCRIPTION:The Experimental Self: Edvard Munch’s Photography\, an exhibition organized by American-Scandinavian Foundation with The Munch Museum in Oslo that first brought the photographic work of the master painter to NYC in 2017/18 before traveling worldwide\, returns to Scandinavia House this winter with a newly conceived design and a section including vintage camera equipment alongside the release of the 2020 illustrated book The Experimental Self: The Photography of Edvard Munch\, awarded with diploma as one of The Year’s Most Beautiful Books\, 2021 by Grafill\, Norway’s National Organization for Visual Communication. \nInternationally celebrated for his paintings\, prints\, and watercolors\, Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863–1944) also took photographs. In 2017/18\, the exhibition The Experimental Self: Edvard Munch’s Photography at Scandinavia House drew widespread acclaim for introducing audiences to his photographic and film work\, emphasizing the artist’s experimentalism and examining his exploration of the camera as an expressive medium. This exhibition includes Munch’s experimental portraiture of friends and family as well as his self-portraiture\, including images from what he termed his “Fatal Destiny” portfolio\, staged between 1902 and 1908. By probing and exploiting the dynamics of “faulty” practice\, such as distortion\, blurred motion\, eccentric camera angles\, and other photographic “mistakes\,” Munch photographed himself and his immediate environment in ways that rendered them poetic. In both still images and in his few forays with a hand-held moving-picture camera\, Munch not only archived images\, but invented them. As a recent Financial Times Magazine review of the works states\, “Munch’s mercurial snapshots trace the survival of an artist obsessed with loss… his photographs remain tantalisingly opaque a century on.” \nHaving since traveled to eight venues worldwide\, including Seattle\, Oslo\, Stockholm\, Fredrikssund (Denmark)\, and Bergen\, the exhibition will be returning to Scandinavia House beginning December 10 in a new iteration\, including photographic enlargements and a display of the amateur camera models similar to those he used in his work. The exhibition will also feature a “selfie station” for visitors to interact with Edvard Munch’s experimental self-portraiture\, as well as the opportunity to browse the new publication\, which includes 120 fully illustrated pages alongside essays by curator Patricia G. Berman\, Tom Gunning and MaryClaire Pappas\, available for purchase in the Shop. On loan from the Munch Museum in Oslo\, Norway\, the approximately 50 copy prints in the exhibition and a continuous projection of Munch’s films will be accompanied by contextualizing didactic panels as well as a video presentation. It has been organized by the American-Scandinavian Foundation in partnership with The Munch Museum in Oslo\, Norway. It has been supported by the Inger and William Ginsberg Support Fund.

SUMMARY:The Gravedigger's Wife
DESCRIPTION:The Nordic & Baltic Oscar Contenders series at Scandinavia House returns this season with select in-house and virtual screenings of films chosen by the Nordic & Baltic countries to compete for the Oscar nomination for the Best International Feature Film. On DATE TK at Scandinavia House\, see the film The Gravedigger’s Wife (Guled & Nasra\, dir. Khadar Ayderus Ahmed\, Finland/France/Germany\, 2021\, Drama)\, Somalia’s official nomination for the 94th Academy Awards. \nEach day\, in Djibouti City\, Guled (Omar Abdi) and his comrades sit outside a local hospital to wait for the next ambulance. When in luck\, they will leave with a body to bury in exchange for a little money. No one enjoys the job\, but at least they have each other\, and Guled has Nasra\, played by Somali Canadian model Yasmin Warsame in her first acting role. The gravedigger’s adored wife is dying of kidney failure and in desperate need of a transplant. In order to pay for it\, Guled would need the equivalent of what he might make in a year\, in far less time. \nThere is one other option in their home village\, but Nasra refuses to hear it. She instead chooses to savour every moment left with her beloved and their son\, Mahad\, too young — and too emotionally distant from his father — to be without her. Nasra’s worsening health drives Guled’s decision to ignore her warnings in one last act of devotion. \nIn The Gravedigger’s Wife\, Finnish Somali writer-director Khadar Ayderus Ahmed observes the long\, arduous lengths love can reach to. His poetic debut is a study of slowing time to capture the ceremonial element in the act of caring for another\, where the smallest moments mark the most radiant demonstrations of reverence. Mesmeric cinematography and an impactful score make for an unforgettable journey into regional landscapes rarely appreciated in the popular cinema of Europe or the Americas\, and even rarer viewed on Somali terms. In that way\, perhaps what Ahmed offers is more than a love story and rather a visual lesson in story as love. \nTickets to this event must be purchased in advance online at the link above; film screenings will take place in Victor Borge Hall. All attendees are required to present proof of vaccination upon arrival in compliance with New York State government; read more here. Attendees are required to follow all Scandinavia House safety protocols\, including wearing masks during the program and observing social distancing rules in signage. Please read our full safety protocols here. \nABOUT THE DIRECTOR\nKhadar Ayderus Ahmed is a Finnish Somali writer-director born in Mogadishu. He has directed several short films\, including The Night Thief (17). The Gravedigger’s Wife (21) is his feature debut.

SUMMARY:Catwalk: From Glada Hudik to New York
DESCRIPTION:“[A] unique and wonderful story” (Allas) — this December\, see the inspiring new documentary Catwalk: From Glada Hudik to New York/ Catwalk – från Glada Hudik till New York (Sweden\, 2020; dir. Johan Skog) in New Nordic Cinema at Scandinavia House! \nEmma Örtlund has had a lifelong dream of becoming a fashion model\, and asks Pär Johansson\, founder of the Happy Hudik Theatre\, for help. It’s an unattainable dream for most people — and seemingly even more so for people with disabilities like Emma\, and the four young  theater members who decide to join her on her mission. As they together embark on an exciting and bewildering journey to fulfill the impossible\, their unique personalities and stories deliver joy and inspiration to the fashion world and beyond; making a powerful statement about the importance of equal value\, disabled or not\, while giving them their time to shine. \nUplifting\, entertaining\, emotional and inspiring\, Catwalk truly is a film for our times. (95 min. In Swedish and English with English subtitles) \nFilm screenings will take place as a 3 PM matinee and 7 PM evening showing. Tickets to this event must be purchased in advance online at the link above; film screenings will take place in Victor Borge Hall. All attendees are required to present proof of vaccination upon arrival in compliance with New York State government; read more here. Attendees are required to follow all Scandinavia House safety protocols\, including wearing masks during the program and observing social distancing rules in signage. Please read our full safety protocols here. \nAbout the Director\nJohan Skog has over 30 years of experience as a director of commercials\, television and documentary. He has won a number of Swedish Golden Egg Awards\, as well as the Gold Lion in Cannes for his commercials. \nHe directed the first season of the Stars at the Castle\, which won the the Swedish Crystal for Best Entertainment\, and Parasit-TV for public service broadcaster SVT\, which was nominated in Montreaux for Best Comedy Series.
