Works / Projects / CV _ STAVANGER2018 / KA DÅ ITTEPÅ Stavanger2018 is an art project in the public space of Stavanger, that was launched 15 September 2005 by the artist Trond Hugo Haugen. The aim was then - and still is - to focus upon what will happen after the region has been the European Capital of Culture year in 2008.

For details, pictures and updates, please visit www.stavanger2018.no Short project presentation The first phase (2005/2006) of the Stavanger2018 project drew attention to constructive ideas and healthy criticism via the website www.stavanger2018.no, as well as entering a dialogue with Stavanger City Council about long term strategy and planning for after 2008. The second phase (2007) involved launching the debate on the streets using t-shirts and stickers; these presented a simple query KA DÅ ITTEPÅ (What happens afterwards). This was followed by a two month program of events focused upon open debate at several prestigious arenas. The third phase (2008) involved a blog in the city’s largest newspaper, Stavanger Aftenblad, and an independant critic. During 2008, Stavanger2018 achieved in excess of 100 articles in the media about the project itself, and, articles including the query KA DÅ ITTEPÅ. The fourth phase (2009) began with a big opening party for all the years to come – Åpning av Ittepåland (The opening of the land afterwards) - at Tou Scene on 31 January; exactly one year after the opening ceremony of the Stavanger2008 year of culture. Over 350 people from the culture scene gathered together to talk about the years to come, to see project presentations, to debate and experience the handing out of six borgerbevis (proof of afterwards citizenship) to representatives of leading institutions; the city mayor, newspaper chief editor, managing director and so on. During 2009, Trond Hugo Haugen organized various meetings, continued as a independant critic and was a member of Kulturfondet (Stavanger City’s Culture Fond). This is a committee (3 national and 2 regional members) that will distribute 18 million NOK during 3 years, each distribution follows an open application process. In September 2010 Trond Hugo Haugen and his project was elected as the fourth most powerful person in the region’s culture scene. The poll was carried out by the newspaper Stavanger Aftenblad. Haugen was preceded by two full time politicians (the mayor and the chairman of Department of Cultural Affairs), and the director of the Department of Cultural Affairs at Stavanger City Council. Today the project is working on the preparation to the fifth phase, the local election in 2011. This will be the first election after the region has been the European Capital of Culture. In addition, Stavanger will elect a new mayor after sixteen years. Indeed, this new mayor will be in charge of the real ITTEPÅ (AFTERWARDS). _ NOCUBE - ARTISTS BOOKS LABEL noCUBE is a ongoing artists books project, founded in 2002.
