Astrid Noacks Atelier opfører sammen med en lang række pianister den franske komponist Erik Saties komposition Vexations. Det foregår fra fredag d. 14.09 kl. 20:00 til lørdag d. 15.09 kl. 20:00 i *Astrid Noacks Atelier.

Udstillingskonceptet er udviklet i en igangværende dialog med IHi – InstantHERLEV institute omkring byudvikling fra brokvarteret til forstaden og nedrivning af kreative miljøer.

Alle er velkomne under hele performancekoncerten.

I september påbegyndes nedrivningen af det unikke miljø om atelier. Forhuset og de karakteristiske garager i Rådmandsgade 34 forsvinder og baggårdens mere end hundrede års historie afsluttes.** Under nedrivningen skal der spilles klaver. Opførelsen af Erik Saties Vexations fra 1893-1894i Astrid Noacks Atelier er tænkt som en meditativ begivenhed. Vi ønsker værket opført af en række kunstnere og musikere i en 24 timers event, der understreger stedets og tidens meditative og alvorlige karakter specielt i disse omgivelser, hvor så store forandringer manifesterer sig. Det vil samtidig måske være den første opførelse i Danmark af Saties komposition Vexation.

Vexations fylder kun en side og består af et kort tema i bassen som spilles 4 gange, hver anden gang forsynet med skiftevis en af to overliggende stemmer (se vedhæftet nodeark). Det er blevet tolket således, at temaet skal spilles 840 gange. Tempoet angives som ”Tres lent” – meget langsomt. Vi forslår, at hver musiker spiller en time, hvor temaet gentages 35 gange.

Første opførelsen fandt sted i New York i 1963 under ledelse af den amerikanske komponist John Cage med hjælp fra 11 andre pianister fra det amerikanske eksperimenterende musikmiljø. Opførelsen varede i 18 timer. I en indspilning med den hollandske komponist og pianist Jeroen van Veen spilles den i et tempo, hvor en opførelse på 840 repetitioner varer ca. 24 timer.

*Astrid Noacks Atelier, hvor billedhuggeren Astrid Noack fra 1936 til 1950 boede og havde sit atelier, og de bagvedliggende træbygninger blev i 2016 restaureret af Ny Carlsbergfondet. Astrid Noacks Atelier og de to ligeledes ny renoverede små sidehuse er i august 2018 blevet udpeget af Slots- og Kulturstyrelsen som bevaringsværdige. Ifølge aftale med den nye ejer af matriklen er atelier og huse sikret 30 år for Foreningen Astrid Noacks Atelier til at skabe kunstaktiviteter. Den øvrige baggård, der rummer små værksteder, øvelokaler og musikstudier vil blive restaureret som ejerlejligheder og tilbudt de nuværende lejere til markedspriser, hvad de næppe har råd til. Dermed vil også baggårdens historie som kulturelt arnested for dansk rockmusik sandsynligvis afslutte.

**Københavns Kommune vedtog ved et møde d. 13 august at give nedrivningstilladelse med 6 stemmer mod 5 for at give plads til en 6-7 etages beboelsesejendomme. På nabogrundene i nummer 32 og 36 er to sådanne huse allerede under opførelse.

Bogrelease: TRÆMUSEET

Fredag 14. september kl. 16-19

Kig forbi Astrid Noacks Atelier, drik et glas og vær med til at fejre TRÆMUSEET – C. Y. Frostholms nye bog, som udkommer i Rævens Sorte Bibliotek hos forlaget politisk revy.

Digterne Pia Juul og Rasmus Nikolajsen bidrager til festlighederne med lidt oplæsning i selskab med CYF omkring klokken 17.

Alle er velkomne.

TRÆMUSEET er Frostholms største udgivelse til dato: en essayfortællingen og en spontant fremvokset hybridtekst om at opleve – og skrive om – natur og litteratur. Bogen bringer læseren på sporet af forfattere som Fernando Pessoa og Francis Ponge og inviterer samtidig til en række møder i ord og billeder med træer i Danmark og rundt i verden.

De fragmentariske og forgrenede optegnelser om forfatterskaber, kærlighed, køn, diversitet, planter og planetens overlevelse, og om at være en person på jorden, gør bogen til et kampskrift for en ny slags opmærksomhed. Ikke mindst på det ikke-menneskelige, i vores antropocæne tidsalder.

Between the 13.-26. of August, Barly Thsibos and Nanna Katrine Hansen will take over the place of Astrid Noack’s Atelier making a research space and through various method be looking for decolonial ways of working together across privileges given to individuals by the nation state. How can we attempt to navigate privilege? How do we work together in subversive ways? How do we break existing power structures in ways that take intersectionality into account? What are the different ways of decolonization amongst those on the side of the oppressor and the oppressed?

PROGRAMME:

FILM SCREENING: BORN IN FLAMES + conversation on intersectional ways of working together

Thursday 16/8 – 7-9.30 pm

Born in Flames (1983) by Lizzie Borden is a feminist science fiction, a fantasy of female rebellion set in America ten years after a social democratic cultural revolution. When Adelaide Norris, the black radical founder of the Woman’s Army, is mysteriously killed, a diverse coalition of women – across lines of race, class, and sexual preference – emerges to blow the System apart.

After the film screening we will open the space for a talk about Intersectionality and Intersectionality of Struggles (Angela Davis) – meaning bringing various social justice struggles together, across national borders and against coloniality and racial capitalism.

WORKSHOP: INTRODUCTION TO FORUM THEATER

Sunday 19/8 – 2-4 pm

The theater of the oppressed, developed by scriptwriter and activist Augusto Boal from Brazil, is a experimental method to practice strategies to counteract oppression through theatre exercises and the creation of scenes with inspiration from lived experiences. The method creates an embodiment of forms of resistance, which opens up spaces of possibility and imagination. The sensorial dialogue, which the method can create, is both an artistic and activist tool that points to the future. The idea is to develop a series of scene, which entails a level of oppression. The scenes will first be acted out, thereafter they will be rewinded and replayed where audience can interfere in the scene, replace an actor and try to enact a attempt of breaking the oppression.

The workshop will be an introduction to forum theatre by artists Margarita del Carmen and Kristian Byskov.

The workshop is for the people involved in material production during the research period at ANA, which are individuals and groups dealing with questions of working together across privilege in relation to citizenship and racialization in their work and practices.

WORKSHOP: COLLECTIVE WRITING

Tuesday 21/8 – 4-7 pm

In this workshop we will try different writing exercises and focus on ways of collective writing. It will aim at opening up ideas for how to write a radio drama, so we will try to write parts for a scene and dialogues.

The workshop will be facilitated by author and member of VisAvis Hannah Lutz.

The workshop is for the people involved in material production during the research period at ANA, which are individuals and groups dealing with questions of working together across privilege in relation to citizenship and racialization in their work and practices.

TALK: MAKING WHITENESS STRANGE/BEING A WHITE ALLIED/ACCOMPLICE

Thursday 23/8 – 7-9 pm

‘The burden is on whiteness’ as activist and writer Lesley-Ann Brown once phrased it. When talking and working critically with migration and racism, a first step is to problematize whiteness and europeanness – this in order to act on it and break with whitesupremacy.

You might ask why to put focus on this, since whiteness already is the totality and in most contexts at the centre. What we hope with this talk is to expose the blind angles that whiteness bring and take responsibility for this. This is a long process, which is nor easy or comfortable.We want to discuss together how to be a white allied or accomplice in struggles around migration and racism. How to move beyond guild and see this work as decolonial move, which is both material and collective. It raises questions about access and who leads the struggles. Based on already written material, we hope to discuss and elaborate on ethics of working together across privilege.

As the revolutionary, decolonial author and activist, Frantz Fanon writes: “This colossal task, which consists of reintroducing man into the world, man in his totality, will be achieved with the crucial help of the European masses who would do well to confess that they have often rallied behind the position of our common masters on colonial issues. In order to do this the, the European masses must first of all decide to wake up, put on their thinking caps and stop playing the irresponsible game of Sleeping Beauty”.

The workshop is for the people involved in material production during the research period at ANA, which are individuals and groups dealing with questions of working together across privilege in relation to citizenship and racialization in their work and practices.

FISH BOWL CONVERSATION: DECOLONIAL STRATEGIES OF WORKING TOGETHER

Saturday 25/8 – 4 – 7 pm

We have invited different groups who have experience with working together across privilege to bring their experience and we want to create a learning space for the strategies the groups use. In an interactive dialogue method, fishbowl conversation, we will discuss the questions of how we can attempt to navigate privilege? How do we work together in subversive ways? How do we break existing power structures in ways that take intersectionality into account? What are the different ways of decolonization amongst those on the side of the oppressor and the oppressed? Which alliances are valuable to make and what should they circle around.

The hope with the talk, is to formulate drafts for ethics of working together across privilege.
