Folk Music and Nazism
Valdres Museum of Cultural Heritage has been granted NOK 100 000 for an exhibition on folk music and Nazism in cooperation with master's degree student Bjørnar Blaavarp Heimdal, the magazine Folk Music and the Holocaust Centre. The exhibition will focus on the Occupation Forces' fascination with Norwegian folk music and dance. Further, it will show how (and why) Norwegian folk musicians and folk dancers played a part in national socialist propaganda. Posters, texts and images from the German propaganda machine will be central in the exhibition, which is scheduled to open in June 2012.
A list has now been published of the minor grants awarded by the Fritt Ord Foundation in November 2011.
