Beyond Borders - OLEANA - the Norwegian Story


We are so excited because in just two weeks OLEANA will open the exhibition, BEYOND BORDERS, at the Pendulum Gallery. Press releases have been written, invitations have been sent out, people are RSVPing, and everybody is looking forward to Norwegian Magic coming to Vancouver.

Solveig Hisdal is going to be here! For many of you, meeting Solveig is going to be a very special experience. For those of you who have her book "Poetry in Stitches", this is a chance to have your copy signed. Signe and Kolbjorn will be here too, as will the new Norwegian Ambassador to Canada.

Barbara Bourget from the Kokoro Dance Company has choreographed a dance performance based on a piece of music that uses the sounds of the Oleana Factory.

OLEANA is such a special company with so many facets that make it truly unique, and this exhibition will give Vancouver a chance to touch it.
