In 2014, Kunsthall Stavanger is excited to host the entire range of curator Randi Berger’s flag project, now in it’s fourth iteration (previous sites include New York City, Bergen, and Nesflaten). Each flag (there are 53 altogether) has been individually commissioned by Berger from a wide range of Norwegian and international artists and collectives, and will be flown outside of the Kunsthall Stavanger one at a time, for one week each over the course of the year.

The exhibition Samliv originally took place at the Bergen Art Society in 1977. Innovative, provocative, and most of all, informative, the exhibition utilized the visual arts as a way to communicate crucial issues around sexual health and identity, the effects of which can still be traced today. Documentation and artworks from the original Samliv exhibition are currently on view at Kunsthall Stavanger as part of Hold Stenhårdt Fast På Greia Di - Norwegian Art and Feminism 1968-89. Here, Samliv's head organizer, artist Elsebet Rahlff, writes about the background and implementation of the exhibition.
