The Kven and S\u00e1mi cultures, and a love for their native regions, characterise the writing of Idar Kristiansen from K\u00e5fjord. His debut book Songs from a tundra<\/em> (1957) was well-received by reviewers in the Norwegian press. The poems strike the tone for his future authorship with a focus on nature, people, and culture in the High North. In 1970 came Expedition to Kautokeino, <\/em>A documentary novel about the Sami's rebellion against authority and social injustice. The rebellion culminated in a bloody religious showdown in Kautokeino in the autumn of 1852. The main work in Kristiansen's authorship is the novel series The trumpet and the fishes<\/em> I fire bind, based on the Finnish emigration to Finnmark and Northern Troms in the latter half of the 19th century. The series sparked both great enthusiasm and intense debate in its time. For the first two books in the series \u2013 Swan wings in the north <\/em>(1978) and The salt field<\/em> (1979) \u2013 he received the Aschehoug Award in 1980, and in the same year he was nominated for the Nordic Council's Literature Prize 1981 for The stone leads to the sea<\/em> (1980).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the exhibition, we also encounter the painter, poet, teacher, journalist and public debater. Idar Kristiansen was a productive, engaged and versatile artist. A man with a lot on his mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
