Smells like Arctic
Now the exhibitions are being opened, here we're inside the work of Paris based artists Magali Daniaux and Cedric Pigot, a white container that smells inside. It contains a specially composed Arctic odor. In the picture: artistic director Luba Kuzovnikova in her famous white fur with Norwegian Minister of Culture, Hadia Tajik. By the way,the youngest minister ever in Norway, and the first Muslim in a Norwegian cabinet.

Hi he said
At the festival dinner with Crown Prince Haakon of Norway. Like at the dinner with her Majesty Queen Sonja of Norway two years ago there are a lot of security measures and rules how everything has to be done. And then Crown Prince Haakon came in and said: »Hi!«, most personable! Nice dinner with entertaining cultural intermezzi and some inspiring conversations with dinner guests.
