Holmenkollen:
It is the first ski jump in the world with permanent wind protection inherent to its design and construction.
14 scandinavianedition.com
On top of the world With it’s panoramic view over the metropolitan areas and the Oslofjord, the Holmenkollen Ski Jump is world famous and represents an international symbol of ski jumping and ski sport in general.
Ever since 1892, the village of Holmenkollen, twenty
minutes from downtown metropolitan Oslo, has hosted legendary skiing competitions. The new iconic architectural wonder, which replaced the old ski jump from the Winter Olympics in 1952, was finished in 2010. On the first day of jumping tests, the record of the longest jump made at Holmenkollen, was broken.
Atop the ski jump is a platform where visitors can take in some of the most breathtaking views of Oslo, the fjord and the region beyond. Holmenkollen is the newest and by far the most modern ski jump facility in the world. It is the first ski jump in the world with permanent wind protection inherent to its design and construction.
16 scandinavianedition.com
Along with Wimbledon and the Wembley Arena, Holmenkollen Ski Jump is also the world’s most visited sports facility. Nevertheless as a skijump it was actually one of the smallest hills in the World Cup tournament, and in September 2005, the International Ski Federation decided that the current hill does not meet the standards to award the city the 2011 FIS Nordic World Ski Championships. In December 2005
Norway’s Directorate of Cultural Heritage approved the demolition of the old historic ski jump and in April 2007 the Oslo municipality announced an open international competition for designing a new ski jump. The legends of the Holmenkollen races and ski jump competitions will live on along with it’s legendary ski jump, in perfect harmony with the Scandinavian nature that surrounds it. Welcome to OSLO.

BROSLO
The artist duo from ‘Gamlebyen’ The artist duo BROSLO is an exciting artistic collaboration between Nikolai Gyllenhammar and Jonny Aaseth. Gamlebyen’s (the old town of Oslo) modern response to Tidemann and Gude, if you will. The young aspiring artists have already experienced great success and is yet another example of Oslo as a creative breeding ground for young talents. National romanticism is not their arena – they create distinctive contemporary art using recycled materials – the result: creative designs full of joy and energy. Jonny (b. 1985) has been one of Norway’s leading snowboarders for many years. At the same time he has both painted and crafted furniture. Nikolai (b. 1983) has been doing graffiti art since he was 12 years old. He is an architect, but has nevertheless chosen to focus on art. Last year, the two boys decided to show off their work for the first time. It resulted in a sell-out exhibition. In April this year they repeated the success. This time with the exhibition Fake diamonds, which was held in a unique venue in downtown Oslo. The exhibition hall was originally one of the city’s first indoor tennis quarts, but is today an open spaced – a large, urban facility made up mainly

of concrete. This made it the perfect playground for BROSLO. The playful artists had access to the hall throughout the spring and used it as their studio to prepare the exhibition. We met BROSLO while they were preparing Fake diamonds and had an inspiring chat with two eager and creative artists. Not least, we were allowed to experience the two while working with some of the designs for the exhibition. Nicolai, why use a closed down tennis hall at Oslo’s west end – isn’t it east of Oslo that’s your home ground? – Our studio in the old town is way too small for the large formats we produce for this exhibition. For our previous exhibition we had to cut large holes in the floor on the 2nd floor, just to get the paintings out of the house. This time our work is even larger, the largest canvases are 3 meters wide and 4 meters high. This hall is 1300 m2 with over 5 meters ceilings, and therefore it is nothing that holds us back from working ‘big’ – we love large formats! However we’ve received some complaints from the west end neighbours here. Especially when we were outside sputtering out a pharaoh in some old, dry wood. The smoke was all over Parkveien (LOL) – no one cares about things like this in the eastern Old Town. Now you have completed two sell-out exhibitions, how does it feel? – It feels both crazy and good. We do not make art to sell it, we make only ‘banging designs’ we would like to own ourselves. It is a bonus that so many think so highly of our art, that they are willing to buy it – it’s simply awesome! Is Oslo too small? What’s next; New York? – It would be cool to exhibit in New York! But first we have some projects in Norway, and a standing offer for an exhibition in Stockholm, so I guess we’ll have to wait and see. In October we are aiming towards USA, to set up a studio in Los Angeles and start producing. Anyhow we’re still going to spend a lot of time in the Old Town – we simply love Oslo.

Fake diamonds is the duo’s other sell-out exhibition and was held in a unique venue in the city centre – originally one of the city’s first indoor tennis courts.

The concept of the exhibition is as the title implies, ‘Fake Diamonds’. Everything on display has in fact something in common; it has been created by reuse of old materials. The works consist of various rough diamonds which have been transported through the hands of the artist duo and reborn as fake diamonds. Fake, renewed, improved renderings of what they once were. NOW – joyful art! It is essential for BROSLO to give old materials and damaged items a new life and a new feature. And in the same time make something that spreads joy and energy. How important is the reuse of old materials? – The reason we are reusing old materials is simple: old materials are much better. The planks they offer you at the lumber dealers today are just porous ‘turbo-spruce’, which has grown up too fast on fertilizers. They just splinter and feel cheap. The wood we use is instead over 100 years old pine from apartment buildings being torn down, or old shipping crates from the Oslo harbour. The wood is solid and has a patina you can’t buy for money. The fact that it is free and environmentally friendly is a bonus. The most important thing for us when we make furniture, lamps or art, is that we end up with a transformed object that is both refined and solid – a new thing that can last longer than ourselves, and perhaps for centuries and generations to come. Jonny and Nicolai have an inexhaustible energy and urge for creativity, which becomes thoroughly apparent in everything they touch. They make their own clothes, build motorcycles, makes stock interior decorations of the so-called ‘findings materials’ – everything from old pianos to military storage boxes – and produce artwork in impressive sizes. They find inspiration ranging from different brands, popular cultural icons, to old advertising signs and other ordinary things, which transform with the artists creative imagination. Where do you find inspiration? – From the way we live! You won’t find us watching TV or in front of a computer. We are always outside, on the move, looking for inspiration and fun. We’re biking, plunging from buildings, going to parties, travelling to other cities, meeting new people, seeking out and exploring abandoned industrial areas and such. This provides impulses. We don’t plan much; instead we see where the road takes us. When one of us have an idea for a new design, we continue to develop it as a team – we make all our art together! Instagram: @BrosloArt

barcode district 30 scandinavianedition.com
New iconic seafront The new iconic seafront of metropolitan Oslo has been named The Barcode District. This is a portion of the Fjord City redevelopment on former dock and industrial land in central Oslo, and is placed alongside the new Opera House.
More and more people are getting their workplace or residence in the new Opera quarter in Oslo. When completed it will house 400 homes, and over 10.000 people will have their workplace in the new iconic buildings. The Barcode principle is an architectural and structural engineering principle that attempt to make one or more structures, typically buildings, to
commemorate a barcode design. Most Oslo citizens are enthusiastic about the fresh, clean, modern architecture, and the unmatched opportunity to reshape the urban landscape and relieve pressure on a rapidly growing city without diminishing existing green space. We find it mesmerizing, inspiring and that it symbolizes the new Scandinavia. Welcome to OSLO.

Contemporary home of art
The new Astrup Fearnley Museum at Tjuvholmen, has a privileged location right on the water’s edge, with views of the Oslofjord and it’s back to the city centre.

The Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art
is a privately owned Contemporary Art gallery. It was founded and opened to the public in 1993. The new museum at Tjuvholmen opened its doors in 2012 and gives 6-7 temporary exhibitions each year. The collection’s main focus is the Amercian appropriation artists from the 1980’s, but is now moving more towards the international Contemporary art scene, with artists like Jeff Koons, Richard Prince, Ciny Sherman, Matthew Barney, Tom Sachs, Doug Aitken, Olafur Eliasson and Cai Guo-Qiang. The museum houses American artist Jeff Koons monumental 5.1 million dollars porcelain sculpture of the pop star Michael Jackson and his favorite chimpanzee.
As a continuation of the redevelopment of the Aker Brygge area of the city, site of former shipyard, Tjuvholmen is a new cultural quarter located to the south-west of Oslo’s city centre. Integrating both art and leisure, the complex combines the Astrup Fearnley Museum and an office building, with a new public sculpture park, beach and lovely waterside promenade. The well known architect Renzo Piano has designed the museum, which consists of two buildings housing the museum’s permanent collection as well as temporary exhibitions. Large, modern exhibition spaces of 4200 m² gives the museum the possibility to continue its ambitious program of temporary exhibitions. The Astrup Fearnley buildings harmonize with the new Scandinavian look and feel in which we ourselves so strongly believe in. Welcome to OSLO.
