The regional bus company Kolumbus of the city of Stavanger (Norway) has commissioned the works of different artists on street busses over the next three years within the framework of the Nuart Festival. This initiative is part of a plan by Stavanger to be regarded as the ‘Art City’ instead of the ‘Oil Capital of Norway’. The Nuart Festival 2017 will take place from August 31–September 2.
