The Arthemist: A Lighthouse
25 Episodes
NEW performance art video every Thursday.
Bjørn Venø is working on a Performance Art film, where he is doing one action a week for one year.
In 2020 Venø returned to the small island in Norway where he grew up.
Venø started the project as both a healing process, a reclaiming of the space and an exploration around his ideas of The Arthemist. Venøs aim is to give people tools they can use to explore for them selves. These tools are not literal, they are a frame of mind and a way of being that Venø hopes one can discover through the actions he performs. It is not Venøs intention to dictate or preach, instead Venø aspires to inspire and teach.
Venø is the autor of the book Arthemist Statement 2.6: Why create art that nobody asked for?

in 2023 Venø exhibited the show ARTHEMIST at Sogn og Fjordane Kunstmuseum (SFKM), which featured, 6 photographs, 2 films, a selection of objects and 6 live performance actions.

In 2019 Venø released the album Arthemey under the name BX.
