In The Year of the Bush Baktruppen got into nature and out in the street.
At the webpage of Baktruppen the following, among other things, was written about The Year of the Bush:
"Because of the funding practice of Arts Council Norway all applicants have to describe their future in pretty detailed ways, if they are to be granted support. Because Baktruppen is unable to decide what to do up to a couple of hours before actually doing so, the artists had to make up fake projects. One was called Natur (literally: Nature). Three years later the Baktruppen members still did not know what this project was to be about. Should they stay in the forest for some weeks to make a production out there? They decided to emphasis inner nature and stayed at home. Norwegians spend fortunes redecorating their homes. But in The Year of the Bush nature confronts us."
Supported by: Arts Council Norway.
