The late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries marked a defining moment in Nordic art. From the cozy domestic landscapes of Carl Larsson to Edvard Munch's darkly beautiful The Scream, the diverse artwork of the period mirrored shifting literary and intellectual pursuits in their attempts to broaden the cultural conversation to incorporate the identities and traditions of the region. Through more than two hundred paintings, Nordic Art tells the story of this important period. In conversation with both Scandinavian culture and the contemporary art of the time, turn-of-the-century artists developed distinctly Nordic interpretations of realism, impressionism, and symbolism. The book focuses on the transitions between these forms of expression, as well as the impact of Nordic art on mainstream European art. Featuring works by well-known artists, including Carl Larsson, Edvard Munch, Akseli Gallen-Kallela, and Vilhelm Hammershøi, the book also introduces artists from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, and Finland whose contributions, though crucial, may be less familiar to international audiences. With Nordic Art, David Jackson offers the first comprehensive look at this critical period of cultural development in the Nordic countries and the extraordinary art that arose during this time.

Excerpt from Exhibition of Contemporary Scandinavian Art Held Under the Auspices of the American-Scandinavian Society OT the least significant phase of esthetic expression has been the constant endeavour on the one hand to achieve a fusion of form, line, and colour that shall commend itself as universal in appeal, and on the other to preserve those fundamental factors which may be designated as national in substance. It is a struggle that has been waged unceasingly throughout the ages, and which repeats itself alike in the artistic development of every nation and every individual. The human spirit constantly seeks to voice in expansive fashion the great, typical impressions received from nature and from life, and yet has at the same time been endowed with the precious faculty of interpreting them after its own specific manner and largely according to a predetermined plan. If you attempt to deprive the creative impulse of its conscious or unconscious universality of utterance, or of its inherent nationality of accent, you go far toward destroying its significance, for art, whether pro duced in obscure wayside cottage, simple hut among the hills, or under the prestige of an organized institution, will instinctively seek to widen its outlook and clothe itself in a language for which it has the justification of an inalienable racial heritage. It is to the enduring credit of the leading Scandinavian countries that they may be counted among those fortunate peoples who, despite external influences, have stoutly guarded their native artistic birthright. Their achieve ments in the field of painting, sculpture, architecture, and industrial design are refreshingly and unmistakably their own. Save in rare and isolated cases they do not speak, and do not attempt to speak, that superficial studio Volapiik, that facile salon Esperanto, which is so utterly devoid of character and vitality. You will remark above all in the production of each of these nations, and to a kindred degree in each instance, the salutary stamp of race and of country. It is in fact only the redoubtable Russians who can to-day compete with the sturdy Scandinavians in the possession of a spontaneous, unspoiled esthetic patrimony. The reasons for such a situation have in many respects been similar, if not, indeed, identical. As in the case of Russia, the relative geographical remoteness of the Peninsula, the barrier of an unfamiliar speech, and the fact that the pallid fervour of Christianity and the pagan richness of the Renais sance were comparatively late in making appearance on the scene, all tended toward preserving that integrity of expression alike in art, letters, and music which is their most distinctive possession. It must not, however, be jauntily assumed that the contribution of the Scandinavian nations to the sum of creative artistic effort is, save in a broad sense, one and the same. Their painting, in particular, divides itself into three well-defined schools, which developed at different intervals, and the leading features of which are manifestly at variance.

In this open access book, seventeen scholars discuss how contemporary Scandinavian art and media have become important arenas to articulate and stage various forms of vulnerability in the Scandinavian welfare states. How do discourses of privilege and vulnerability coexist and interact in Scandinavia? How do the Scandinavian countries respond to vulnerability given increased migration? How is vulnerability distributed in terms of margin and centre, normality and deviance? And how can vulnerability be used to move audiences towards each other and accomplish change? We address these questions in an interdisciplinary study that brings examples from celebrated and provocative fiction and documentary films, TV-series, reality TV, art installations, design, literature, graphic art, radio podcasts and campaigns on social media.

Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... as a pictorial arrangement, a portrayal of humanity, and a colouristic achievement, is an indisputable masterpiece, and perhaps the most important and most mature work in all Norwegian painting. It is the first warm day of Spring. The young girl's invalid chair has been placed by the open window, and, languidly reclining on the pillows, she sits and breathes the air that sighs through the room. A light breeze laden with the fragrance of the fields at this moment fills the window curtain, so that it swells like a sail. As if in gratitude the glance of the convalescent is directed toward her aged mother, who is seated knitting close by, and who eagerly scans the expression on the invalid's countenance. No words are uttered, but the silence is full of quivering expectation, while the vernal sunshine floods every corner of the simple interior. There is another canvas, earlier in date, but with a similar motive, although quite differently handled, entitled The Sick Child, of which a later replica may be seen in the present exhibition. Out of warm twilight tones gleams the pale profile of a child with a halo of reddish golden hair. At her side appears the kneeling form of the mother, bowed in grief. The lines of composition are incomparably blended in this picture, over which flutter the shadows of the wings of Death, and in which two beings, so fondly united, are about to be gently separated one from the other. As a landscape painter Munch is first and foremost the portrayer of the northern summer night. No one has rendered as he the mystic suggestion of those light nights, with mighty tree tops swaying above slumbering white houses and the pale, blurred outlines of the surrounding country. Often against this soft background he masses the...
