The 1st meeting of Nordic Network of Public Art Producers, which will take place on the 30th Sept – 1st Oct 2011, at Kunsthøjskolen i Holbæk, Denmark. The hosts for the meeting are Publik, Denmark (Nis Rømer, Johanne Løgstrup and Katarina Stenbeck), Rakett, Norway (Åse Løvgren and Karolin Tampere) and Mossutställningar, Sweden (Stella d’Ailly).

With this meeting we would like to provide a forum for public art professionals to engage with
issues central to artistic production in the public sphere. The aim is to stimulate professional
knowledge exchange and networking in the Nordic region and to spell out the specific challenges
that await public art producers acting in the region. Recognizing that public sphere is a construct
that needs to be constantly redefined we would like to ask how art and artists relate to the public
sphere in the Nordic countries today.
