As part of the exhibition For History, Change Position, we invite you to a memorial gathering for the porous Norwegian-Russian border - a border shaped by exchange, collaboration and movement from around 1990 until 2022.
Saturday, 29 August, 14:00–17:00
Mellomvegen 82, Tromsø
Free admission
Language: English (with some Russian and Norwegian)
The programme includes a panel discussion reflecting on the Border Art Archive and the exhibition For History, Change Position from two different disciplinary perspectives, with art historian and curator Hanne Hammer Stien and border researcher Ekaterina Mikhailova.
