„Lambretta-Brytninger i tiden“, Masteroppgave i Kunsthistorie ved Universitetet i Bergen

The subject of this thesis is the Norwegian group of artists called Lambretta. The group was formed in Oslo in 1982, and was active until 1987. The Lambretta group consisted of Edgar Ballo, Axel Ekwall, Erik Annar Evensen, Ole Henrik Hagen, Jon Arne Mogstad and Terje Uhrn. Originally, the members of the group were all painters, but the group dynamics that emerged through sharing a common studio resulted in large installation art pieces. On the one hand, they were to a large extent following the general artistic tendencies of the time, onthe other hand they represented something radically new.In this study I will focus on describing the new aspect of the art created by the Lambretta group. Because of the avant-gardes notion of novelty and originality, Lambretta will be discussed in relation to the concept of the avant-garde.

The thesis begins with a presentation of the total artistic production of the Lambretta group. This forms the basis of an examination of the formation of the group, the nature of the group dynamics and the development of their common artistic expression. The works of the Lambretta group are seen in light of the Norwegian and international art scene in the beginning of the eighties, and the new artistic expressions that emerged in those years. Then,the different theoretical understandings of the avant-garde, from the texts of Renato Poggioli, Clement Greenberg, Rosalind Krauss, Jean-Francois Lyotard and Donald Kuspit, form the basis for the final, and central, discussion of “the new”. This paper argues that, in accordance with Lyotard’s theory of the sublime and the avant-garde, Lambretta did create unique artistic expressions of the sublime. The conclusions states that the Lambretta group indeed can be seen as representatives of a post-modern avant-garde.
