Friday June 19, 7–9 PMLive performance and listening session with Rachel Dagnall and Tobi Christiansen from the Henning Christiansen Arkiv Address: 10 documents, Via di San Calepodio 37, 00152 Roma10 documents presents an evening dedicated to the work of the Danish Fluxus composer Henning Christiansen (1932–2008), re-activated live by Rachel Dagnall and Tobi Christiansen with instruments from the Henning Christiansen Arkiv. The event takes place within the frame of All of a Sudden, Between Us, a group exhibition on view at 10 documents until 2 July 2026, curated by Ginevra Ludovici, of which the Henning Christiansen Arkiv is part.Moving between score, gesture, and recording, the evening brings two of Christiansen’s electroacoustic works back into listening — an extract from 6 Opinions, Opus 209 (1994), and an extract from Symphony Natura, Opus 170 (1985) — alongside a vinyl listening session and an open conversation with the audience. To re-perform these works decades later is to treat the archive as living matter: not a document to be preserved, but a sound to be set back in motion. Supported by Art Music Denmark and the Danish Arts Foundation (Statens Kunstfond). 10 documents is a platform for artistic, curatorial, and theoretical research developed through public research programs, each dedicated to a different object of inquiry. Through exhibitions, gatherings, publications, conversations, and sonic or performative acts, it creates a living archive each time — a collective lexicon built through presence, reiteration, and listening. Inspired by the Documents journal directed by Georges Bataille in 1929–1930 — and its appendix in particular — it treats documents as matter and language as an index. Founded in 2025 by Ginevra Ludovici and Flavio Michele, 10documents falls for almost anything.10documents10@gmail.comwww.instagram.com/10documents |
