Bus/Financial - Insurance / life assurance
Swedish term or phrase: artistutövande
Anyone know what this is in terms of life assurance (in a list with idrotts-, sport (not sure of the difference between those either - maybe games and sport).
Maybe artistic performances (e.g. skating?).
Advice appreciated.

neutral  asptech: The word "excercise" seems strange in this context. The expression can have 2 meanings: it either says that the person in question is an artist and does his thing for a living, or it refers to the actual artistic performance.

practising the profession of artist


Explanation:
Just a guess, but I wonder if it has anything to do with insurance for a practising artist. In a similar vein, some countries grant tax exemption for practising artists.
