Lofoten International Art Festival (LIAF)
North Norwegian Artist Center | Torget 20 | 8300 Svolvær | NorwayLofoten International Art Festival (LIAF) is the longest-running art biennial in Scandinavia. Presenting works by local and international artists in a location-conscious context, LIAF seeks to be an open and experimental meeting place for artists, contributors, collaborators and audiences. LIAF does not have a set venue but takes place at different locations in Lofoten each time it is held. LIAF is organized by North Norwegian Art Centre in collaboration with LIAF Artistic Advisory Board.
Curated by Kjersti Solbakken and entitled 'SPARKS', Lofoten International Art Festival 2024 is inspired by the history of the Lofoten Line: a large-scale national initiative from 1861 which sought to make the Lofoten fishery more efficient.
LIAF 2024 will constitute a vibrant network of temporary connections which, in dialogue with a wide range of collaborators, through art projects, collective approaches and cross-institutional partnerships, will help reveal what the Lofoten Line could look like today.
