Release for VIS #13: Brieftopia, shared meal and social gathering

(Skjenkestua)

 

Welcome to the release of VIS – Nordic Journal for Artistic Research Issue 13: Brieftopia, edited by Behzad Khosravi Noori.

 

VIS Issue 13 presents artistic expositions that explore Brieftopia – a momentary yet meaningful glimpse into a possible future. Coined by Noori as a method of artistic research, Brieftopia represents a space where imagination, politics, and artistic practice converge to envision alternative futures.

 

The politics of the future are deeply rooted in today’s socio-economic, cultural, and environmental challenges. As societies navigate war, climate change, technological shifts, and inequality, the way we imagine the future becomes a crucial act. Brieftopia resists utopian abstraction, instead offering brief yet tangible artistic interventions that challenge dominant narratives and propose new perspectives on collective existence.

 

Through six expositions, this issue of VIS explores Brieftopia as an artistic and political strategy – where speculative spaces, historical reclamations, and performative encounters shape new possibilities for the future.

 

The event will feature a presentation by Tale Næss (VIS Editorial Committee) alongside authors Hilde Hovland Honerud, Jon Hovland Honerud, and Rut Karin Zettergren.
