Rolf Aamot (28 September 1934 – 26 February 2024) was a Norwegian painter, film director, photographer and tonal-image[nb 1] composer.

Since 1966, Aamot's works have been displayed in Scandinavia, France (Paris),[5] Berlin (Germany), Brussels (Belgium), Venice (Italy), Moscow (Soviet Union and subsequently Russia), Kraków (Poland), the United States and Japan.

[nb 2] From 1957 until 1960, he studied at the Norwegian National Academy of Fine Arts with the painters Aage Storstein and Alexander Schultz, both of them firmly anchored in the effort to combine figuration and abstraction typical of the 1920s.

[8][9][10] "Evolution" represented a milestone of a new art form in which television for the first time was used as an independent picture-artistic means of expression.

He has continued to make video and film art, often in collaboration with the painter and composer Bjørg Lødøen and the photographer, dancer and choreographer Kristin Lodoen Linder.
