He has also worked, since 2008, as Associate Curator for the Office for Contemporary Art Norway, for which he has developed a number of projects, such as the anthology Whatever Happened to Sex in Scandinavia?

He is currently working on a book on Lygia Clark’s Bichos, which he is examining as tools for pedagogical mediation.
