Nanna Hermansson and Sören Hallgren (representatives from the Swedish Faroese Society) visited me last week in the Faroes. For an intensive couple of days we prepared for the coming exhibition at the National Maritime Museum in Stockholm and selected 30 photos from “Images” that will show some aspects of todays fishing in the North Atlantic. The exhibition will later on travel to Copenhagen, Esbjerg, Gothenburgh, Reykjavik, Tórshavn and Nuuk. The Nordic Culture Fund is one of the main sponsors and others are expected to join in. Also, there seems to be great interest for a conference to be held in Stockholm later this year and if it will be realized we will invite representatives from the fishing industry and the scientific community to work toward increased understanding of fishing and to highlight some challenges facing consumers, the seafood trade and fishing industry.
