Sir Peter Blake, known to many as the father of British Pop Art, created a new series of prints, entitled ‘The Oslo Suite’, inspired by his experience of the Norwegian City.

Previously included in the Apparatjik iPad Magazine, the 6 page Apparatjik comic book drawn by Mike Perkins was included in the Sidekick supplement of Comic Heroes Magazine.

Magne held this workshop at his atelier in Asker. Participants of this workshop were students from across Norway with the aim of creating a time capsule containing their written thoughts about the tragic events on July 22, 2011.

In connection with the ‘Under Stor Press’ print exhibition in Sweden, Yamaparts displayed motorcycles transformed into art by several artists at an exhibition called ‘Underhojar’. One of the motorcycles was done by Apparatjik.

On May 19, a retrospective exhibition opened at the Blaafarveværket museum in Nyfossum, Norway. The Exhibition consists of works from different periods including ceramic jars, woodcuts and prints.

Magne and 21 other Norwegians were interviewed and photographed for a book which focuses on the important choices people make in their lives. The project was a collaboration between The Thief and the Red Cross.

Apparatjik released a second iPad magazine App for free download in iTunes to coincide with the release of ‘Square Peg In A Round Hole’ and the conclusion of the ‘Everyone is one bar’ project.

The second full-length album by Apparatjik had a soft release on 11/11/11 as part of an iPad magazine called ‘Apparatjik World – Issue A’, and then had a traditional release in February 2012.
