Mye av den tidligere forskningen om kulturskolen i Norge har konkludert med at den ikke når målet om å være bredt tilgjengelig. Slik har forskningen bidratt til å problematisere kulturskolens legitimitet. I denne artikkelen gjør vi legitimitet til hovedtema og spør hvordan kulturskolen legitimeres i den offentlige politikken. Nærmere bestemt stiller vi følgende forskningsspørsmål: Hvilke legitimeringer gjør seg gjeldende i den offentlige politikken overfor kulturskolen? Og om flere typer legitimeringer gjør seg gjeldende samtidig, hvordan kan vi forstå forholdet mellom dem? Som analytisk rammeverk anvender vi det franske pragmatiske perspektivet slik det er utviklet av Boltanski og Thèvenot. Vi ser nærmere på hvilke argumenter som brukes i den offentlige politikken for å rettferdiggjøre kulturskolens kjerneoppgaver knyttet til kunst og kunnskap. Empirisk baserer artikkelen seg på analyse av de to sentrale offentlige dokumentene i den offentlige politikkens legitimering av kulturskolen. Det gjelder overordnet del fra rammeplanen for kulturskolen som er vedtatt av mange kommuner, og det gjelder kapitlet om kulturskolen fra stortingsmeldingen om barne- og ungdomskultur. Analysen viser at både den artistiske, kollektive og prosjektorientert verdiordenen gjør seg gjeldende. Slik viser artikkelen at kulturskolen legitimeres på flere og motstridende måter samtidig, men at de motstridende legitimeringene langt på vei er filtret sammen og glattet over i den offentlige politikken.

Artistic quality in the audit society – the case of Norway
Institutional change is being called for to renew higher music education (HME). But what institutional pressures, specifically, are driving these calls, and how are HME organisations responding to pressures to change? By turning to institutional theory, we lean on the concept of institutional isomorphism to shed light on how HME organisations may be navigating pressures to appear legitimate in the field to secure organisational survival. Drawing from a comparative case study of two HME organisations from Norway and the Netherlands, in which strategic plans and interview transcripts with students and professors have been analysed, we discuss how change processes are intertwined with an organisational quest for legitimacy. The findings suggest that there are overarching pressures to change in the field of HME and that variables in the institutional environment indicate how processes of change may unfold. Finally, implications of this unveiled landscape are discussed.
This article investigates the moral outlooks and obligations that are intertwined in the teaching and learning processes of the traditional folk music community in Norway and how moral aspects affect the development of professional identities. Theoretically, we combine the concept of a community of practice with a moral economy perspective. This allows us to see that professional folk musicians are positioned between two different moral economies, one that builds on voluntary values and gift exchange and another that builds on professional ideals of the market-based economy of the music industry. In this way, we extend existing knowledge on teaching and learning processes by specifying the moral content that is learnt by participating in the practices of the folk music community. Being socialised into the moral outlook of the Norwegian folk music community means internalising specific norms and values that create moral obligations and shape social contracts.

The Covid-19 pandemic has radically changed the working conditions of cultural workers, especially for those whose work involves physical attendance. At the same time, several cultural policy measures have been implemented to help the cultural sector during the pandemic. The purpose of this article is to analyze cultural workers’ responses to the pandemic working situation and to corona-specific cultural policies. To this end, a moral economy perspective is applied. Moral economy is a perspective that views economic activities, in the broad sense, through a moral and not just a material lens. It has to do with how moral sentiments and norms govern what is seen as acceptable or unacceptable economic behavior in different spheres of activity. The vast bulk of research on cultural workers has mainly emphasized the symbolic and material dimensions of their motivations. However, recently there has also been a growing interest in the moral motivations of cultural workers. The analysis is based on two different empirical materials. First, it draws on 57 interviews with professional musicians in Norway. All the interviews were carried out during the pandemic, more specifically between August 2020 and February 2021. Second, the analysis focuses on one of the most heightened public debates that arose as a response to corona cultural policy (i.e., the implementation of a stimulation scheme for the cultural sector). The article concludes that the pandemic has revealed the presence of two conflicting moral outlooks in the understanding of cultural workers and cultural policy.

Artists and Online Dissemination: An Analysis of Positions and Position-Takings
This article analyzes visual artists’ response to online sales and dissemination technologies by mapping the range of corresponding positions and position-takings by professional artists in Norway. We consider whether artists’ responses align with traditional logics of artistic consecration identified in Bourdieu’s accounts of the field of cultural production, and how these responses correspond to Rogers’ theory of diffusion of innovations. Employing multiple correspondence analysis, we find position-takings toward online sales and dissemination can be structured by a dimension differentiating between technology-oriented optimism and techno-skepticism, between high and neutral levels of risk aversion toward online technologies, and thirdly between technology adopters and those still at an intentional stage.

The Cartesian Paradox in Norwegian Cultural Policy
This article investigates the symbolic boundaries that are at play in controversies over public art projects and the criteria different groups of actors, (e.g. artists, art experts, bureaucrats, and local communities), use when evaluating public art. This investigation shed light on how art, artistic autonomy, and public spaces are subject to ”boundary struggles” in which the identities and worth of different social groups and the value of art in society are negotiated. Based on case studies of two public art projects that were rejected before their completion, – and by tracing the media coverage of the public debates these cases generated, – this analysis reveals that the ways art is understood vary considerably between representatives of the artistic field and those outside of it. It is argued that insights into such struggles can inform cultural policy in the narrow and wide sense. It is valuable to gain insight into how ‘ordinary people’ value and draw boundaries around art, as cultural policy research has primarily attended to the perspectives of public authorities and professional actors in the artistic field.

The Cartesian Paradox in Norwegian Cultural Policy
This article discusses the methodological implications of the relations we
have to our object of study as cultural policy researchers. We ask: What
research relations we typically are part of and what social dimensions
structure these relations? These questions are discussed by comparing
field experiences from two cultural forms that can be characterized as
polar opposites when it comes to the degree to which they are legitimized: contemporary opera and dance bands. We suggest that four
dimensions are especially relevant to help ‘unpack’ the relations we
typically find ourselves in as cultural policy researchers; cultural hierarchy, research conditions, geography and, gender and age. The coexistence of these dimensions means that the cultural policy researcher
regularly finds him/herself in complex situations that we suggest should
be analysed in terms of the ways in which, and the extent to which, we
develop roles as insiders – or outsiders – in the field

The social contract of artists in the era of cultural industries
In the context of the shift towards participatory practices within
museums, museum engagement with social media represents a
form of organizational change. This study approaches social
media and the corresponding organizational change from a
museum leader’s perspective, utilizing data from a broad crosssection
of 82 museums in Norway. We address how the
characteristics of a museum and its leader impact social media
attitudes, behaviors and intention towards social media-based
change. Combining factor analysis and clustering techniques, we
identify four museum leader ‘types’ who are primarily defined by
their (1) perception of museum benefits from social media, (2)
perception of own and museum support in social media activities,
(3) perception of conflicts that arise from social media usage, and
(4) social media-related values. With museums being asked to
more fully embrace the participatory potential of social media,
this study points to significant differences in readiness to change
across museum leaders.

As You like It! How Performance Measurement Affects Professional Autonomy in the Norwegian Public Theater Sector
The aim of this article is to study the effects of performance measurement on professional autonomy in the Norwegian theater sector
and how these effects have changed over two decades, from the
1990s to the 2010s. We do this by introducing the concepts of
decoupling and disciplinary power and by studying the dialogue
between five case theaters and the Ministry of Culture as part of the
system of Management by Objectives. We find effects both related
to processes of decoupling and disciplinary power in this period, but
the decoupling effects seem to be most notable in the first part of
the period of the study. Consequently, we must also conclude that -
though not totally in danger - the professional autonomy of the theaters was increasingly challenged during this period.

Kunsten har blitt karakterisert som det økonomiske feltet snudd på hodet (Bourdieu 1993). Å rette seg etter det som er økonomisk gunstig, har ikke alltid vært gangbart om man skal lykkes i kunstens verden. Like fullt, og i økende grad, må også kunstinstitusjoner fokusere på kostnadseffektivitet og sørge for å ha orden på de økonomiske og administrative sidene ved sin drift. Innføringen av mål- og resultatstyring i 1996, som ledd innføringen av nytt økonomireglement i staten og tilhørende den omfattende New Public Management-reformen(e), er en markant endring hvor hensynet til kostnadseffektivitet er blitt tydelig forsterket. Systemet med mål- og resultatstyring (MRS) og kunst representerer på mange måter ulike verdisystemer. Mens mål- og resultatstyring representerer verdier som kontroll, kostnadseffektivitet, regelfølging og planmessighet, representerer kunst verdier som kreativitet, nyskaping, estetiske regelbrudd og rom for det uventede. Følgelig blir spørsmålet: Hvordan berører og påvirker innføringen av systemet med mål- og resultatstyring forholdet mellom de kunstneriske og økonomisk-administrative sidene i kunstinstitusjoner? I denne artikkelen undersøker vi nettopp dette og ser nærmere på perioden fra to år før systemet ble innført i 1996 og fram til 2012. Mer spesifikt presenterer artikkelen en longitudinell studie av hva innføringen av systemet med mål- og resultatstyring har betydd for norske institusjonsteatre.
In this article, we seek inspiration from the performative theatre arts to better understand creative work and leadership in a digital age. Theatre artists work and lead creative processes toward theatre performances without any digital distractions. Theatres are a physical manifestation of art. The aesthetic and embodied creative work and leadership is essential for a play that engages and touches the audience. While theories and research about embodied leadership scarcely address digitalization or technology, research about digital and virtual leadership oversees the importance of embodied processes and leadership. Through insight acquired by interviewing theatre directors, we describe how these creative work and leadership processes are about developing and maintaining embodied, emotional and mental focus. We explain and analyse this phenomenon through a description and analysis of theatre art and theatre leadership, where we argue that theatre productions resemble many kinds of temporary creative projects in regular work organizations. Theatre directors lead people in a way that makes theatres one of the last frontiers of digitalization. We also explain what there is to learn from theatres in a digitalized work life, where smart phones, I-pads, PCies or other digital devices never are turned off.

The aim of this article is to provide insight into the phenomenon of sexual harassment in the theatre world. A survey among Norwegian actors is presented showing that sexual harassment is much more prevalent in the theatre world than in Norwegian work life in general. Further, the article aims at understanding why the prevalence is as high as it is. Based on qualitative interviews, the article points out some risk factors that shed light on the high prevalence of sexual harassment. Lastly, the risk factors are related to charismatic authority as an important power base in the theatre world.

This article discusses artists’ work in performing arts institutions in Norway. Many scholars describe Nordic performing arts institutions as slow-moving and heavy “art factories,” where artistic creativity is almost suffocated within bureaucratic “prisons.” The general problem that we raise in the article is whether this pessimistic picture of the relation between state control, market influence, and artistic work is relevant for studying the performing arts today. The study is primarily based upon twenty-seven qualitative interviews with informants in an institutional theatre and a symphony orchestra. We conclude that the actors in the Theatre are trapped—not so much within “a bureaucratic iron cage”—but rather within “an iron cage of charismatic leadership,” while the musicians in the Orchestra enjoy the relative freedom and democratic power of a rather soft bureaucratic organization.

Exhibit / Inhibit. Gjennomgang av OCA. Office for Contemporary Art Norway
[Report Research]. Telemarksforsking
Telemarksforsking har i samarbeid med Sigrid Røyseng, Handelshøyskolen BI, foretatt en gjennomgang av OCA - Office for Contemporary Art Norway på oppdrag fra Kulturdepartementet og Utenriksdepartementet. Gjennomgangen viser at selv om OCA har mange resultater å vise til, har organisasjonen store utfordringer på enkelte områder. OCA er en omstridt organisasjon som har fått mye omtale i media de siste årene. Uenighetene omkring OCA kretser i hovedsak rundt organisasjonens kunstfaglige profil, dens rolle og funksjon, dens arbeidsmåter, dens påståtte mangel på åpenhet/transparens samt spørsmål knyttet til habilitet. Til tross for alle de problemstillinger som preger striden om OCA, nyter stiftelsen gjennomgående stor respekt og anerkjennelse for sin kunstfaglige profil og tyngde og for sine resultater. Telemarksforsking vektlegger i rapporten at det er viktig at OCA prinsipielt må ha spillerom til å foreta kunstfaglige vurderinger ut fra sitt kunstfaglige skjønn. På den andre siden er OCA også avhengig av legitimitet i sine omgivelser. Denne legitimiteten sikres blant annet gjennom viktige prinsipper som transparens, habilitet og god rolleforståelse. Telemarksforskings vurdering er således at en del av diskusjonene rundt OCA er av det gode, men at det i forhold til andre diskusjoner også bør tas noen grep for å styrke OCAs legitimitet.

Kunstnere i byråkratisk jernbur? : kunstnerisk arbeid i utøvende kunstinstitusjoner
[Report Research]. Telemarksforsking
Hvordan er arbeidslivet til utøvende kunstnere? Deres arbeidsdag, de fysiske og psykiske arbeidsbelastninger, deres forhold til kunstnerrollen og deres veier til en kunstnerkarriere. Hvordan organiseres de utøvende institusjonene, og hvordan opplever de ansatte denne organiseringen? Makt og hierarkier i organisasjonen og forholdet til de ytre rammebetingelser så som offentlige myndigheter, presse og publikum. Dette er forhold denne studien belyser.
