<p><a href="http://cargocollective.com" target="_blank">Cargo</a> is a web publishing (CMS) and  community-building platform currently in development. It powers  communities in creative fields including Education, Design, Research,  and Conceptual Art. For examples, visit the <a href="http://cargocollective.com/#/featured" target="_blank">Featured  Websites</a> page. Cargo evolved out of the system that runs the <a href="http://spacecollective.org/" target="_blank">SpaceCollective</a> community. The devlopers found it remarkably successful and efficient in creating  visual content on the web, placing a strong emphasis on design, layout,  image quality and typography. Their goal is to dramatically increase the  accessibility and exposure of creative individuals on the Internet,  while aspiring to build a networked context that will contribute to the  culture as a whole.</p>

<p>Hvert år deler Norsk Form ut tre priser: Jacob-prisen, Hedersprisen og Norsk Forms pris til unge formgivere. Torsdag 19. november annonserte Norsk Form vinnerne av Jacob-prisen, Hedersprisen og Norsk Forms pris til unge formgivere. Juryen besto i år av Linda Evensen, Knut Hjeltnes, Marie Asbjørnsen, Leif Isachsen og Halvor Bodin. Utstillingen <a href="http://www.norskform.no/default.asp?V_ITEM_ID=4648" target="_blank">Prisverdig!</a> på DogA fra 19.11 til 6.12.</p>
<p><span id="more-983"></span></p>
<p><strong>Jacob-prisen: Egil Haraldsen</strong></p>
<p>Egil Haraldsen debuterte i 1983 etter utdannelse fra Grafisk avdeling/SHKS, og han har i et kvart århundre vært en av de virkelig toneangivende innen norsk bokdesign. Han driver eget designstudio i Oslo – <a href="http://www.exil.no" target="_blank">Exil design</a> – og arbeider med grafisk design for kulturfeltet, hovedsaklig med bøker, filmplakater og tidsskrifter. De fleste hjem har et utvalg av hans arbeider. Haraldsen har designet omslag for forfattere som Dag Solstad, Kjell Askildsen, Tove Nielsen, Knut Faldbakken og Edvard Hoem. Han har definert den visuelle profilen til forlaget Oktober og har også arbeidet med bokdesign og omslag for en rekke andre forlag som Pax, Gyldendal, Cappelen, Aschehoug, Tiden, Kolon og Humanist.</p>
<p>Egil Haraldsens solide produksjon representerer en konvensjonell typografisk tradisjon og presisjon. Samtidig søker han det ukonvensjonelle ved sin eksperimentering og reflekterte relasjon til samtid og subkultur. Hans repertoar er fra det sublime og rent typografiske til det fotografisk-illustrative og koloristisk eksessive. Egil representerer selvsikkerhet og distinkt egenart kombinert med respekt for det unike i tekst og kontekst for hvert prosjekt. Bøkene for Oktober og filmplakatene til Arthaus er utmerkede eksempler på organiske visuelle identiteter som vokser fram på grunn av langvarig, nært og respektfullt forhold mellom designer og oppdragsgiver. Kulturprodukter trenger ikke merkevarestrategi, men kvalitetsbevisst, kløktig og variert innholdsformidling som trigger sanser og nysgjerrighet.</p>
<p>Haraldsen er faglig fundamentalist, en vakthund for typografihåndverket, for viktigheten av bokstavenes billedlegging av språket og en streng kritiker av faglig slapphet og selvtilfredshet. I hans debatterende og kverulerende ærlighet og satiriske humor ligger det en blod-alvorlig insistering på faglig kvalitet, kompetanse, meningsfylde, ærlighet og arbeidsmoral.</p>
<p>Egil Haraldsen øker tilgjengeligheten og livskvaliteten for et lesende, seende og tenkende publikum, inspirerer kunder og samarbeidspartnere og er et utfordrende forbilde for grafiske designere i alle aldre.</p>
<p>«Design oder nicht sein!»</p>
<p>Juryens begrunnelse skrevet av Halvor Bodin.</p>

<p><strong>Norsk Forms pris til unge formgivere gikk i år til industridesigner Torgny Fjeldskaar og de nominerte var forøvrig  illustratør/grafisk designer Cecilie Ellefsen og keramiker/kunstner Stine Walderhaug.</strong></p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-993" title="torgny" src="http://www.deconstructure.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/torgny.png" alt="" width="448" height="337" /></p>
<p><strong>Torgny Fjeldskaar</strong></p>
<p>Industridesigneren Torgny Fjeldskaar tilhører gruppen med dyktige designere som vi sjelden hører om, nemlig de norske talentene som jobber i utenlandske designbyråer og industri. Fjeldskaar er en av de aller fremste av disse ukjente designstjernene som setter dype spor etter seg i sine nye hjemland.</p>
<p>Fra 2003 har Fjeldskaar arbeidet i <a href="http://www.cannondale.com/" target="_blank">Cannondale Bicycle Corporation</a>, som er et av de ledende og innovative sykkelmerkene i verden. Fjeldskaar har spesialisert seg innen transportdesign, og jobbet for både Think og Mazda før han bestemte seg for å satse på en grønnere form for transport.</p>
<p>I Cannondale Bicycle Corporation ble han den første industridesigneren til å jobbe med sykkelutvikling. I dag er Fjeldskaar ikke bare ansvarlig for design av nye sykler og komponenter, han leder også et team som jobber med utvikling av ny teknologi for sykler og andre grønne transportkonsepter.</p>
<p>Torgny Fjeldskaar er også grunnlegger og hoveddesigner i <a href="http://www.laisr.com/" target="_blank">Laisr</a>, som fokuserer på stoldesign. Fjeldskaar avsluttet sin master i transportdesign i Barcelona i 2002. Han har også studert i Trondheim og München.</p>
<p>For å oppsummere, kan vi sitere Chris Peck, vice president of research and development: «He’s a visionary designer, but also knows the mechanics of making his vision a performance reality».</p>
<p>Juryens begrunnelse skrevet av Leif Isachsen.</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size: x-small;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-990" href="http://www.deconstructure.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/cecilie.png" rel="lightbox[983]"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-990" title="cecilie" src="http://www.deconstructure.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/cecilie.png" alt="" width="448" height="404" /></a></span></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Cecilie Ellefsen</strong></p>
<p>Grafisk designer og illustratør <a href="http://www.flymaskin.com/" target="_blank">Cecilie Ellefsen</a> viser en imponerende bredde i uttrykk og har en unik og sterk stemme i sine arbeider. Hun opererer mesterlig med en bredde av teknikker som inkluderer blyanttegning, vektor-illustrasjon, 3D-printing, laserskjæring og animasjon.</p>
<p>Utstillingen <em>In the Forest Deep</em> på Hunting Lodge i Oslo høsten 2008 har, sammen med utstillingen under <em>Pictoplasma Character Walk</em> i Berlin mars 2009, satt hennes arbeider i større sammenhenger. Hun demonstrerer sin evne til å skape karakterer, historier og verdener som på samme tid er eventyrlige, morsomme, skumle, fargerike og imøtekommende.</p>
<p>Ellefsen har i årevis bidratt med entusiasme og fantastiske kreasjoner for salg på Designernes eget julemarked og har i år også laget plakat/invitasjon. Hennes smykker, porselen, klokker, silketrykk, kalendere og kort selges også på nettet og har bidratt til en internasjonal fanskare.</p>
<p>Cecilie Ellefsen har arbeidet med design siden 1997, og fra 2002 hovedsaklig med illustrasjon. Hun er tilknyttet <a href="http://commandogroup.no/" target="_blank">Commando Group</a> i Oslo. Ellefsen har stilt ut i Singapore, San Francisco, Berlin og Oslo. Hun er publisert i internasjonale illustrasjonsbøker, senest Illusive 3, Gestalten, 2009, og er jevnlig prisvinner i blant annet Visuelt.</p>
<p>Cecilie Ellefsen representerer en fornyende holdning til hva illustrasjon og design kan være, og er definitivt et friskt pust i det hjemlige miljø.</p>
<p>Juryens begrunnelse skrevet av Halvor Bodin.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-992" title="stine" src="http://www.deconstructure.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/stine.png" alt="" width="448" height="284" /></p>
<p><strong>Stine Walderhaug</strong></p>
<p>Keramiker og kunstner <a href="http://www.kunsthandverk.no/nkartikler.cfm?pArticleId=12415&amp;pArticleCollectionId=95" target="_blank">Stine Walderhaug</a> avsluttet i 2008 en master i visuell kunst ved Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo. Hun har fått stor oppmerksomhet for sine små skulpturer i porselen, og har siden 2004 jobbet med å utvikle en teknikk som gjør det mulig å forme porselenet på nye måter.</p>
<p>Ved første øyekast kan det se ut som om Walderhaugs arbeider er brettet i papir, men skulpturene er laget av tynne ark i porselen, helt ned i 0,5 mm tykkelse. Det gjør arkene transparente og det er dermed mulig å skimte lagene av bretter innover i skulpturene. Motivet er trykket direkte på arket ved hjelp av silketrykk. Når arket brettes, forsvinner motivet inn mellom foldene.</p>
<p>Det krever stor teknisk presisjon å brette porselen uten at det knekker, og det ligger en grundig utprøvning bak metoden hun har kommet frem til.</p>
<p>Walderhaug har deltatt på utstillinger i både inn- og utland. Hun ble antatt på Norske Kunsthåndverkeres <em>Triennale</em> i 2007, og hun var eneste norske deltaker på Talente i München i år.</p>
<p>Juryen har latt seg imponere av Stine Walderhaugs arbeider. Origami og porselen har lange tradisjoner i Asia, og Walderhaug forener disse to på en nyskapende måte i sine små skulpturer. Vi ser at det ligger store muligheter i teknikken hun er kommet frem til. Hun har for eksempel også vist at strikking med unike porselenstråder er mulig.</p>
<p>Juryen gleder seg til å følge utviklingen videre!</p>

<p><strong>Norsk Forms Hederspris: Svein Hatløy</strong></p>
<p>Arkitekt Svein Hatløy har satt svært viktige spor etter seg i Norge som arkitekturpedagog gjennom initiativet til og etableringen av Bergen Arkitektskole (BAS). Svein Hatløy var rektor på BAS i 21 år, fra stiftelsen i 1986 til 2007. I denne perioden har han ledet skolen fra en sped start til å bli akseptert som fullverdig privat arkitekthøgskole med statsstøtte fra 1996.</p>
<p>Bergen Arkitektskole har ikke bare vært viktig som utdannelsesinstitusjon nummer tre for arkitekter i Norge, men kanskje i enda større grad som et ideologisk uromoment i det norske arkitektmiljøet. Et uromoment både i forhold til ukonvensjonelle undervisningsmetoder, men også i forhold til grunnleggende tanker og diskusjoner om arkitekturens plass i samfunnet som kulturuttrykk og identitetsskapende virksomhet.</p>
<p>Svein Hatløy har hatt en klar ideologisk forankring i den polske arkitekten Oscar Hansens tanker om åpen form, ideer som nå er bibrakt en hel generasjon norske arkitekter gjennom undervisningen på BAS. Oppmuntrende for Svein Hatløy må det være, at tidligere studenter krever mastergrads- og doktorstudier i Åpen Form.</p>
<p>Svein Hatløy har gjennom arbeidet med Bergen Arkitektskole maktet å etablere et nytt kraftsentrum i det norske arkitektmiljøet.</p>

<p>The Warmoestraat has been flooding the Netherlands with the latest in experimental, innovative art since October 1979. Since it was founded, <a href="http://w139.nl" target="_blank">W139</a> has been open non-stop for three decades. Over the last 30 years, a different designer/group each year has helped to shape the face of W139 by making the invitations/material for one year each. These designers have been asked to contribute to the anniversary by making a poster that will be hung in bus and tram shelters throughout Amsterdam from 28 October to 10 November. All posters are exhibited in W139 from 16 October to 22 November. There will be an opening at W139 30 October. Visit the project at <a href="http://w139.nl/nl/tentoonstelling/w139-birthday-posters" target="_blank">W139</a>.</p>

<p><strong>W139:</strong> Space for continuous production and presentation of Contemporary Art since 1979. Dedicated to risk and experiment. Eight to ten exhibitions a year, openings fridaynight 9 pm. An artist is someone who wants to see. Not the invisible is what an artist is looking for or imagines, but the visible itself is the greatest question of it all. Shape, space and material are somewhat to comprehence, but light and colours are out of reach. The one who seeks the phenomena of art, will find an emptyness in which the gab of art theory echoes. Art is the new nature: a tree is beautiful adjacent to a river, with a cow lying beneath it and the shadow of the clouds passing by. The Whole speaks, the parts mumble and stutter. Shaping a new, living unity between works of art, space and public becomes the mission of W139 since its establishment.</p>

<p><a href="http://www.kunstindustrimuseet.dk/en/udstillinger/aktuelle-saerudstillinger/verdensbilleder-den-globale-plakat" target="_blank">Pictures of the World: The Global Poster</a> at <a href="http://www.kunstindustrimuseet.dk/en" target="_blank">Danish Museum of Art &amp; Design</a>, Copenhagen. October 2 2009 – January 31 2010.</p>
<p><span id="more-948"></span></p>
<p>The exhibition includes the 70 x 100 cm <em>Beat The Planet-</em>poster for the 1993 Dub the Universe tour with <a href="http://www.theprodigy.com" target="_blank">Prodigy</a> as headliner. The poster is designed by Halvor Bodin with 3D illustration by <a href="http://www.unlekker.net/" target="_blank">Marius Watz</a>. This was the first large format poster printed in full colour for the rave scene in Norway. The client was Zone Productions. The poster is also featured in the book <a href="http://www.librarything.com/work/1945658/book/50531502" target="_blank"><em>Den Norske Plakaten</em></a> (<em>The History of the Norwegian poster</em>), <a href="http://www.thinktank04.eu/page.php?2,41,96" target="_blank">Jorunn Veiteberg</a>, Pax 1998.</p>
<p><strong>Information on the exhibition:</strong><br />
Swinging skirts, surrealistically distorted faces, monocle wearing men, aggressive war propaganda, richly illustrated tourist posters, introvert anti war missiles, humoristic advertising figures and a stencilled President Obama.</p>
<p>The comprehensive international exhibition Pictures of the World: The Global Poster at the Danish Museum of Art &amp; Design with more than 300 posters designed by the most predominant poster designers in the World offers visual stories and a rare insight into the history and development of the poster through almost 200 years</p>
<p>Poster icons like Jules Chéret, Toulouse-Lautrec, Alphonse Mucha, Chagall, Cassandre, Lenica og Fukuda as well as several of the best Danish graphic artists from Valdemar Andersen and Sven Brasch to Per Arnoldi and Finn Nygaard are represented. Through its presentation of man the poster shows different features of the development of fashion. The exhibition shows widely different techniques, styles, artists and visual expressions, presented in an international and urban perspective.</p>
<p>Divided into advertising, politics and culture the exhibition shows outstanding examples of the greatest, the best, the funniest, the strangest, the most beautiful and the most kitschy posters. In this way the poster is shown in its width, grandeur as well as its craziness, as the poster is not only art and design but a dynamic picture of the World as it looked before and as it looks now.</p>
<p>Pictures of the World: The Global Poster is therefore not only an ambitious retrospective exhibition of posters, but an exhibition of graphic communication of a world in constant change. A world of pictures formed by the global poster, which now can be seen, perceived and experienced by everybody.</p>
<p>An exhibition of posters, which like this one combines historical depth with a global stamp and description of the present value of the media has never before been put on show in Denmark.</p>
<p>The curator of the exhibition is the head librarian of the Danish Museum of Art and Design Lars Dybdahl, M.A., who simultaneously launches his book <a href="http://www.nytnordiskforlag.dk/shop/product.php?id_product=643" target="_blank"><em>The Global Poster</em></a> published by Nyt Nordisk Forlag.</p>

<p>With <em>Rock-Paper-Scissors – New Art from Norway</em> galerie susan nielsen proudly introduces the work of eight artists whose artistic practices have all to some degree been informed, challenged, or shaped by their connection to Norway. The artist’s nationalities and residences are not univocally Norwegian, yet their work is part of what shapes a Norwegian contemporary art scene today. The exhibition focuses on two points: one being the use of paper as a means of shaping and redefining an outlook, the other being an attention to science or scientific exploration, whether it be a pseudo-scientific investigation into the mechanics of machinery, a zoological or sociological take on gender stereotypes and sexual preferences, or a systematic tracing of lines resulting in constructions of geometrical figures.</p>
<p>With Rock-Paper-Scissors – New Art from Norway, galerie susan nielsen seeks to provide a glimpse of an art scene that is currently booming with energy, enterprise, and talent.</p>
<p><strong>Halvor Bodin</strong> (Lillehammer, Norway 1964), who lives and works in Oslo, studied political science before entering into the field of art through film production and graphic design. His artistic production includes large-scale installations and sculptural works as well as drawing, which he is showing in the present exhibition. Bodin’s drawings balance on the verge between the highly organic and an almost dry subtlety, which stems from intricate imagery and a delicately applied pencil. In some of Bodin’s drawings, his connection to Black Metal aesthetics breaks through the surface of restraint and imbues an image with a multitude of silent, grey flames that outline the jaw and barred teeth of a human figure, which then metamorphs into feather- or leaflike shapes only to melt into circular shapes resembling cell membranes. Thus, Bodin’s drawings allude to the power of creation as well as to the fragility of human existence and capture the viewer’s imagination as the shapes are nearly recognizable and yet remain elusive.</p>
<p>Text by Maria Gry Bregnbak, curator and art historian</p>
<p>The exhibition includes two new drawings by Halvor Bodin: <em>Alexithymia II + </em><em>Alexithymia <em>III</em></em><em> </em>, 2009. Graphite on paper, 71 x 100 cm.</p>
