The creative act

The present publication is a reader for the group exhibition "The Creative Act" at Henie Onstad Art Centre. With artists Maryam Jafri, Carlos Motta, Angel Nevarez& Valerie Tevere, and Nomeda&GediminasUrbonas. All artists' work deal with different archives as content. We used the reader to publish relevant material for each project, often re-archiving the direct sources of the artists' work. A good example of this was the inclusion of the complete musical scores for The War Song, re-orchestrated and conducted by Øivind Ness for the The Norwegian Radio Orchestra and Jenny Hval, performed at The National Opera, Oslo (project by Nevarez and Tevere).
