News from a-ha.com


After a highly successful Danish debut last summer at Roskilde Festival, where they played for an enthusiastic audience of 50 000, Apparatjik will bring the Light Space Modulator to Denmark on May 3 to perform at the National Gallery of Art. Tickets are available now.
If you missed it, there is a lengthy interview with Magne by EQUO1ST magazine and translated into English for a-ha.com here. In the interview, Magne talks about Apparatjik in general and also about winning over the audience at Roskilde last summer:
“We enjoy the fact that we have a much more direct relationship with the audience. Roskilde confirmed it. I was shocked to see how many people came. People came to the concert because everyone talked about it and no one knew what it was. No one had heard this music before, maybe, 10 or 20 people in the whole of the crowd had heard Apparatjik, but certainly not a thousand or ten thousand. It was so much fun playing to the audience that don’t know at all what to expect and then to win them over, to win the atmosphere and to make them relax and become a part of it. This is the fundamental thing about Apparatjik – to involve people and make people interested in being involved.”
Here is a video from Apparatjik’s performance at Roskilde:

Magne’s Bouquet Exhibition

Magne is participating in a group exhibition called ‘Art just west’ in Asker, outside Oslo. The opening took place in the square in Asker on October 9, and there Magne’s art Bouquet served as a backdrop for the evening’s program.
The work consists of white fabric draped around the building known as ‘Aalto-vasen’ (Aalto vase), and decorated with letters from the name of the exhibition forming various anagrams.

The ‘Art just west’ exhibition is going on now at Galleri Trafo in Asker, featuring works from 84 artists.
The following exhibition at Galleri Trafo will be a jubilee celebration of Magne’s own works, a retrospective encompassing 25 years, and coinciding with his 50th birthday on November 1. This exhibition, also called Bouquet, will open on October 25 and run through November 25. For more information, visit the Galleri Trafo web site.

Sølvguttene / Apparatjik / Audiokolor

On December 11, the Oslo boys’ choir Sølvguttene will ‘sing Christmas in’ with a new work by Apparatjik and Audiokolor. The choir’s name means ‘Boys of Silver’, and they are a very popular institution in Norway and abroad.
This new work is connected to the ‘Everybody is a composer’ installation at the I wish this was a song exhibition. During the course of the exhibition, the security cameras mounted around the Apparatjik/Audiokolor installation are recording the movement of the visitors; this will be converted into a musical arrangement, which will be performed on December 11 together with Sølvguttene.
