THE FIELD BOOK


The book is an entrance to thematics central to The Wetland Pavilion and contains texts by Hild Borchgrevink, Hugo Reinert, Jiska Huizing, the Pavilion's artists, as well as presentations of the seven art projects. The field book will grow over time: every time a work is added to the library, a manual will be added to the book. The book is designed by Tiril Haug Johne, who also designed the program for The Wetland Pavilion in 2022. The book is supported by KORO and Kulturdirektoratet.

MANUALS

At every addition of a work to the Wetland Library, the work's artist will make a “manual” that is added to the Field book.

Each artist decides what the manual contains, but a fixed part of it is a contract. This contract defines how the work is to be reactivated during future cycles.

Randi Nygård was the first to add her work to the library, in 2024, and made a manual for Målestokk.

LAUNCH

The Field book was launched on the 1st of Sep 2024 with readings on a guided walk along Østensjøvannet and a lunch at Bakkehavn.

The meet up point was at the willow tree at Smedbergbekken
