High response 2 - stavanger sampling
High response was a project that needed a response from an audience or participants to be fulfilled or even to exist.

High response 1 involved 8 artists who visited individual school classes. The aim for the artists was to involve the pupils in a Live Art project rather than just being a visiting artist giving a lecture.

Inngang 13 Åpen dør - Rogaland Kunstsenter
All artists living in Rogaland were invited to participate in this exhibition. The exhibition was curated by director Geir Haraldseth, but there was no jury and no prizes.
In 1884 a group of french painters initiated an alternative to the traditional Salons under the motto: "No jury. No prizes." "Åpen dør" invites to reflect over what art is today, and who has the power of definition.
Anna Roos showed the video "Mist" as part of this exhibition.
