More

Among those people Goksøyr & Martens has worked with are refugees from Kosovo-Albania, a film crew, 17 couples, pupils from the Barratt Due Music Institute, street musicians, a Swedish television game-show host, Youths from Holmlia youth center, actors from The National Theatre and activists from different political youth organizations.

The artistic project of Goksøyr & Martens can be placed into a new avant-garde practise where investigation on language, identity and the contemporary is central. This practice also represents an exchange between the political field and the art field. The result is aesthetics where artistic activism and political activism goes together hand in hand, and where the art object, the art institutions and the role of the artist is constantly discussed.
