SUMMARY:The Nordic Council Literature Prize Nominees: Finland
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, join us for a virtual literary series with the nominees of this year’s Nordic Council Literature Prize! Awarded since 1962 alongside other prizes from the Nordic Council in music\, film\, and environment\, the Literature Prize is selected annually for a work of fiction (poetry\, prose\, or drama) written in one of the Nordic languages\,  Created to generated greater interest in the sense of Nordic cultural community and to recognize unique artistic endeavors\, each year’s prize is selected by the Nordic Adjudication Committee\, made up of two members from each of the Nordic nations. \n\nOne of this year’s nominees from Finland\, Kaj Korkea-aho’s Röda rummet (Red Room\, 2021) follows a young and slightly depressed writer and musician who\, growing tired of his poverty as an artist\, jokingly places an ad in a local paper offering to write a novel in exchange for a nice apartment.A response comes from someone who appears to be a cross between Hercule Poirot and Mephistopheles; it soon becomes clear that he wants our main character to write a book about him and his desire for submission\, in a novel challenges many contemporary notions of power and supremacy\, experience and desire. \nKorkea-aho will discuss his novel with critic and essayist Sara Abdollahi. \nThis event will take place as a Zoom webinar; please ask questions in the chat or send them in advance to  info@amscan.org. Registration is required; please sign up at the link above. This conversation will be recorded and available later to stream on our Virtual Programming page and on our YouTube channel. \nSpecial thanks to FILI. \n \nAbout the Speakers\nKaj Korkea-aho is a Finnish-Swedish author\, columnist\, and comedian. His previously published novels include Se till mig som liten är (2009)\, Gräset är mörkare på andra sidan (2012)\, and Onda boken (2015). The latter has been translated into six languages. \nSara Abdollahi is a critic and essayist. She has previously been editor-in-chief of the Swedish Writers’ Association’s magazine. Abdollahi is also an editorial member at SITE and a member of the assessment committee for the Nordic Council Literature Prize.

SUMMARY:Exercises in Togetherness
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday October 4th\, Scandinavia House and Finnish Cultural Institute New York welcome you to Exercises in Togetherness\, an intimate in-person program\, with contributions by Helsinki-based artists Inari Sandell and Jaakko Pallasvuo\, and New York-based artist Danilo Correale. With the event\, Exercises in Togetherness discusses the relations between rest and labor\, sleep\, and artistic work in the current social climate\, where societies are aiming to “return back to the normal”. \nInari Sandell’s textile installation\, consisting of works from the body of work Gravity Blanket\, creates a setting for the gathering. Inspired by their own neurodivergence\, Sandell is interested in disturbing conventions of neuronormativity that dictate what bodily and cognitive abilities\, styles of movement and degrees of productivity are considered socially acceptable. In their work these norms begin to blur and make way for alternative conceptions from a point of view of neurodiversity and queerness. \nJaakko Pallasvuo’s newly produced text-based work engages in dialogue with Sandell’s textile installation. Bringing forth the relations of work\, rest and care\, the piece has come to life in the aftermath of Pallasvuo’s recent trip to New York\, channeling some of the city’s dynamics and priorities yet inviting the viewer to connect the dots. \nDanilo Correale investigates the relations of labor and leisure\, rest\, sleep\, and dreams of postwork societies in his practice through installation\, video\, and writing. For Exercises in Togetherness\, Correale will realize a performative lecture on the topic of fatigue. The lecture is followed by a Q&A session with Elina Suoyrjö\, the Director of Programs at FCINY. \nRegistration is required; please sign up here or at the link above. \nAbout the Artists\nDanilo Correale (b. 1982 in Naples\, Italy) is an artist and researcher based in New York. In his work he analyzes aspects of human life\, such as labor-leisure\, and sleep under the lenses of time and body. His work has been presented in numerous international group exhibitions\, most recently at Villa Arson (FR)\, Hessel Museum of Art\, (USA)\, XXII Milano Design Triennale\, BEMIS Omaha (USA) and RIBOCA – Riga Biennial. Correale is the founder of the Decelerationist Reader and a regular contributor to publications in the field of critical theory. His recent publications include They Will Say I Killed Them\, NERO publications\, Rome\, Reverie. On The Liberation From Work\, New York (2018)\, The Game – A three sided football match\, FeC\, Fabriano (2014) and No More Sleep No More\, Archive Books Berlin\, (2015). \nJaakko Pallasvuo (b. 1333) is an artist living and working in Helsinki. Pallasvuo’s work has been exhibited at Documenta 15\, CCA Derry~Londonderry\, American Medium\, Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw and New York Film Festival\, among other places. Pallasvuo’s comics for the Instagram account avocado_ibuprofen were recently collected into a book by Chicago-based publisher Perfectly Acceptable Press. \nInari Sandell (b. 1991 in Lahti\, Finland) is a multi-disciplinary visual artist based in Helsinki. Their lens-based and sculptural work often takes form as installations\, addressing themes of coping\, rest and sensory experience entangled with post-digital and post-human millennial experience. They are about to graduate from the Time and Space Arts MFA program at Uniarts Helsinki and hold a BFA in Photography from Turku Arts Academy at University of Applied Sciences (2016) and a BA in Media Studies from University of Turku (2020). Their work has been exhibited in Finland and internationally in galleries\, museums and festivals including Titanik\, Photographic Centre Peri\, SIC\, Exhibition Laboratory Helsinki and Athens Photo Festival\, among others. Their praxis also includes self-publishing and curating. \nAbout Finnish Cultural Institute New York\nThe Finnish Cultural Institute in New York works across the fields of contemporary art\, design\, and architecture\, creating dialogue between Finnish and American professionals and audiences.

SUMMARY:A Look Inside Tom Sandberg: Photographs — with Aperture
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the publication of Tom Sandberg: Photographs\, join Scandinavia House and Aperture for an evening of conversation between writer and curator Bob Nickas\, and editor of Aperture magazine\, Michael Famighetti! \nWorking in a signature modulating gray scale\, the late Norwegian photographer Tom Sandberg spent decades rendering the world according to an exacting vision\, training his eye on the shapes and forms of the everyday—dark abstractions of asphalt and sea\, the hard edges of an automobile\, an ominously curved tunnel\, an anonymous figure casting a shadow—to plumb the nature of photographic seeing. His pictures are subtle yet transformative\, studies of stillness that radiate mystery. \nA perfectionist in the darkroom\, Sandberg was acutely sensitive to the rich spectrum of black and white\, and his handmade prints\, at times printed on aluminum and canvas\, project a powerful physical presence. Although Sandberg is esteemed in his native Norway and throughout Scandinavia and Europe\, his oeuvre is less known in the United States and other parts of the world. This monograph\, produced in close collaboration with the Tom Sandberg Foundation in Oslo\, is a long-overdue celebration of this distinguished artist. \nThis program will take place in-person at Scandinavia House. RSVP is required; please register at the link above. \nAbout the Speakers\nBob Nickas is a writer and curator based in New York. He has organized more than one hundred exhibitions since 1984\, including Tom Sandberg: Photographs 1989–2006. Among his other shows at MoMA PS1 are Wolfgang Tillmans: Freedom from the Known; Stephen Shore: American Surfaces; Lee Lozano: Drawn from Life\, 1961–1971; William Gedney—Christopher Wool: Into the Night; a Peter Hujar survey; and projects with Charles Atlas\, Trisha Donnelly\, and Torbjørn Rødland. Nickas’s books include Painting Abstraction: New Elements in Abstract Painting (2009) and four collections of his writing and interviews: Live Free or Die (2000)\, Theft Is Vision (2008)\, The Dept. of Corrections (2015)\, and Komplaint Dept. (2018). Yesterworld\, Nickas’s daily writing diary from 2019\, has just been published by Karma. \nMichael Famighetti is editor of Aperture magazine. In 2013\, he organized a relaunch and reconceptualization of the magazine\, which won a 2018 National Magazine Award for General Excellence. Together with guest editor Sarah Lewis\, Michael is recipient of an ICP Infinity Award for Critical Writing and Research for “Vision & Justice\,” the Summer 2016 issue of Aperture. In addition to editing the magazine\, Michael works with the digital team to shape online content\, and commissions and edits books. He is currently also visiting critic at the University of Hartford’s MFA program\, and a participant in the School of Visual Arts’s Mentors program. His writing has appeared in Frieze\, Bookforum\, and Aperture\, among other publications. He is a member of the American Society of Magazine Editors\, and has been a guest reviewer and speaker at many international festivals and institutions. \nCo-Organizers
