Remember the opening concert of Barents Spektakel 2011 where music met sports on the wrestling mat in Fjellhallen? Where Kimmo Pohjonen and his accordion judged the match of wrestlers from Norway, Finland and Russia?

When the 10th festival was over this February, we felt we had to slow down and cast a glance back and forth into our future, and see where we are heading for.

Stefano Cagol has reached the final destination of his symbolic journey through Europe. He will identify and underline borders through a powerful slash of light in Kirkenes on March 20th – 28th.

Stefano Cagol has arrived in Oslo from the Dolomites area and is beaming his light installation on March 11th 18:45 – 19:30 from Ekebergåsen.
Check “The End of the Border (of the mind)” together with the Italian artist on his journey from the South to the North of Europe!

From the Italian Dolomites to the Arctic. A symbolic one-month expedition through Europe. An artistic exploration of borders by light as a medium.

A sincere thanks to everyone who helped make Barents Spektakel 2013 into, like HRH Crown Prince Haakon put it, one of the coolest festivals in the region!
