Our guest for the evening is the Norwegian painter Kristine Onsrud. Many young, figurative painters can probably relate to her art school trauma, but there are probably few who have experienced that their painting got stabbed with a pair of scissors by their so-called colleagues. This is exactly what happened to Onsrud, who eventually left the London art school to get a proper education at the Florence Academy in Italy. But the "all you do is wrong"-mentality and lack of storytelling as an integrated part of the education at FAA, finally made her apply to the Nerdrum School where she has studied since.The conversation was produced by Bork S. Nerdrum, with assistance from Cassander Straumsgaard, and Sebastian Salvo.The centerpiece was a self-portrait by Kristine Onsrud. On the shelf were works she made at FAA and as a pupil of Odd Nerdrum.SHOUTOUT to our TOP SPONSORS!Dean AnthonyAnders Berge ChristensenJared FountainFergus RyanMichael IrishShaun RobertsStacey EvangelistaAlastair BlainErik LaskyJack WarnerHĂ„rek Jordal AndreassenHerman BorgePeter AsingerWould you like to get previews, bonus material and other benefits?

Magnus Vanebo is an artist, studying at The National Academy of Art in Norway (better known as KhiO). He visits The Cave to talk about his personal experience with Cancel Culture.Last year, as the academy wanted to increase Social Justice training, and saw «structural racism» everywhere, Vanebo objected — in the beginning as the only one (out of more than 700 people).He wanted knowledge from his professors, not propaganda. The result was the mandatory accusations of bigotry and racism, topped with attempts to have him removed from social media. Vanebo touches on subjects such as Woke aggression, the biggest threat to «creative freedom» — regardless of what you are making. ⭐ Watch the BONUS-material where Tuv and Vanebo continued their conversation, touching on subjects such as the Trickster Archetype, "Structural Racism" as a Projection, Carpenter's They Live, and The Squander Ombudsman:▶ https://bit.ly/3vuTDHEThe conversation was produced by Bork S.

Jonas Landstad is a painter with a keen interest in the Mediterranean mystery cults. Defending timelessness is more important than ever, as gatekeepers of culture, probing your moral purity, aim for total control. The solution might just lie in the individual communion with eternal principles. According to Landstad, this is exactly what happened in the Renaissance. He is a painter concerned with how storytellers can improve by implementing the mystical perspective.✹ Watch the BONUS-material where Tuv and Landstad continued their conversation, touching on subjects such as Divine inspiration VS Mental Illness and the Death of the Museum:▶ https://bit.ly/2QjIlHJ***The conversation was hosted by Jan-Ove Tuv and was produced by Bork S.

The young architect Kristian Hoff-Andersen explains the appeal of classical architecture. Is it good because it is «traditional», or because it emulates nature and thus relates to human beings? Do we like it because it is "old-fashioned" or do we quite simply need timeless surroundings?Hoff Andersen shares amazing success stories about newly made classical buildings — drawing on examples from around the world.

In Sweden, a student group called «Brown Island» feels the presence of a majority of middle class, white students is «problematic». Its members are also traumatized by the name of the exhibition space at The Art Academy. As it turns out, the white walls of «The White Sea» are soaked in racism (a lot of white people have been in the room throughout the years).A «sin of the skin» easily proven by swapping empiricism, reason and rational arguments for emotional and subjective interpretations.In Denmark, a group lead by a professor threw a cast of a former king in the harbour, protesting past slave trade. Though fired from her job, the professor is supported by art world representatives. To understand this phenomenon, Jan-Ove Tuv turns to Catherine NixeyÂŽs book «The Darkening Age. The Christian Destruction of The Classical World». What began as «political activism» gradually turned into state politics, and the destruction of culture.If we do not push back, we are indeed (re)entering a darkening age. Do you have tips of culture news Tuv should cover? Or can you recommend sites, media (etc) he should follow to be informed of the culture field?

A feminist pledge seeks to correct the gender imbalance of museums, foundations and private collections. It is backed up by an organization representing over 100 culture-related organizations. However, their «fairness» hides a core tenet of Critical Theory: objective knowledge does not exist, but is merely "a male, Eurocentric construct". In the end, Critical Theory will only amplify the core principles of Fine Art in a shared zeal to end all ideas of meritocracy.Third-wave feminism will not catapult female classical-figurative painters into accepted collections. In Social Justice rhetoric they suffer from "false consciousness" and have "internalized the male gaze". The good news is: in Europe people are reacting to CT, also from the left.It is of vital importance that we know what Fine Art and Critical Theory is. The future of culture depends upon it.Books referred to in this Cave Comment and that may well save your life:Larry Shiner: "The Invention of Art"Pluckrose/Lindsay: "Cynical Theories""Cave Comments" applies an archetypical perspective to current culture, excavating underlying principles.

Critical Theory-zealots are vying for complete «Cultural Hegemony», introducing utopian demands for moral purity. All ideas of objectivity and quality are under attack. Jan-Ove Tuv explains how The National Academy of Art in Norway is being criticized for not being «woke» enough. The situation is far from idiosyncratic. Indeed, it is indicative of a global phenomenon. If we do not fight back, we are choosing authoritarian nepotism and the death of "creative freedom". In short: the end of «making it» as an outsider within the field of culture. "Cave Comments" applies an archetypical perspective to current culture, excavating underlying principles.

The theater expert, Adara Ryum, makes her appearance to talk about the dramatist Henrik Ibsen and performance practice. Ryum points out how «updating» Ibsen always implies turning him into political propaganda, and that «modernizing» classical theatre results in losing the intensity of the story and insight into the fundamentals of human nature. As a case study, Ryum points to Ibsen's most famous play: A Doll's House. Is Nora (the lead character) a feminist icon — or a spoiled, irresponsible, lying and cynical brat, devoid of empathy?But even more importantly, are the last plays by Ibsen's something more than "contemporary" drama?The centerpiece for this conversation was "The Crucifixion" by Sebastian Salvo.The episode was hosted by Jan-Ove Tuv and produced by Bork S.

Why did Edvard Munch bow to Art after successfully emulating the techniques of the old masters? Perhaps the philosophy of kitsch could serve as a solution for contemporary classical painters that are trying to cultivate their virtue in a minefield of Art. But how do you differentiate between correct and incorrect kitsch signifiers?Watch Jan-Ove Tuv's conversation with the American painter Nic Thurman, an original member of the Memorosa group. Thurman studied with Jeremy Caniglia at the Creighton Preparatory School for three years before he went to study with Odd Nerdrum. He is concerned with the late style of Titian and Rembrandt, but also the early Edvard Munch.EXCLUSIVELY for PATRONS: in the bonus material, Tuv visits Thurman in his studio, where he is working on a large-scale composition of two lovers. They talk about technique, methods of storytelling, and lay out books on the table to compare Edvard Munch's work to Rembrandt's.Back in the studio, Tuv asks Thurman some personal questions and tests his knowledge with the "Do you know Art and Kitsch history?" quiz.At the end, Tuv presents the ten minute excerpt of the upcoming documentary on the Memorosa Group, showing Javier Adams, Sebastian Salvo, and Nic Thurman himself compete to make the best one-hour drawing.Would you like to get previews, bonus material and other benefits?

"I feel like it's time to take women a little bit off the fashion-horse", says the tailor who wants to shape men into cathedrals with her new brand, "The Kitsch Collection". Eline Dragesund is a young designer from Norway whose primary inspiration for clothing is the subculture of Odd Nerdrum's painting school, as well as Ancient Greece. She despises modern body-shape solutions like zippers and polyester, and prefers classical solutions such as linen, draped around the body.In recent years, she has worked with men only. "With every man that I've worked with, he comes to me and says: 'I cannot find what I am looking for. Can you help me?'" As a result of the lack of varied design, she sees the need for "an alternative, elegant clothing style for men."The guidelines for Dragesund's brand are the same as those for kitsch painters: good handcraft, a toned down palette and a timeless mark.Starting out with Edvard Munch, she is planning to select one kitsch-person or a theme as a source of inspiration for each collection. But it is not Munch's wardrobe that interests her — rather how he paints it.For more information about Eline Dragesund's brand, please go to http://dragesund.com.The centerpiece for this conversation was The Nerdrum Shirt by Eline Dragesund and the episode was produced by Bork S. Nerdrum, assisted by Nic Thurman and Javier Adams.Would you like to get previews, bonus material and other benefits?

How can one secure the independence of culture? Watch Jan-Ove Tuv's conversation with the Norwegian art sociologist Dag Solhjell who co-authored "On Kitsch" in 2002, subsequently publishing four volumes on cultural politics in Norway. On the basis of his recent book "Dette er kunst" (This is Art), Solhjell describes what he calls "pointing", which denotes how the Curatoriate validates something as a work of art.He also touches on «The Art Police», and describes how the State made ”Art” a natural part of our society, before contrasting the defining principles of Art with those of Kitsch.If the result is politicization of culture, should cultural politics be abolished altogether?The centerpieces for this conversation where "Running Bride" by Odd Nerdrum and a color litograph from "Les Vitraux du MusĂše de Salvador Dali a Figueras".The episode was produced by Bork S. Nerdrum, assisted by Nic Thurman and Javier Adams. đŸŽ”Listen to exclusive episodes

"I have had mentors as well as tormentors," says Marcus Paus, the Norwegian composer, whose admiration for the craft of classical music has led to his work being frequently attacked by dogmatic modernists — among them a self-appointed nemesis, known as "the teacher who was not to be."Paus' response is to declare that he is not an ideological composer, but simply a musician who recognizes the necessity of seeing the past as a self-evident source of knowledge.In his conversation with Jan-Ove Tuv, he also talks about his education in Oslo with Trygve Madsen and in New York with Richard Danielpour, his work with film music and highlights from his own works, such as "Love's Last Rites" from his album "Odes & Elegies".Can you learn something across disciplines? By the end of their conversation, Tuv and Paus also discuss the value of Paus' friendship with painters and poets such as Christopher RĂ„dlund and HĂ„kan Sandell.The Centerpiece for this conversation is "Stetind" by Christopher RĂ„dlundThe episode was produced by Bork S.
