Film Screening | 9 Evenings: Theatre and Engineering

Costs: museum admission, no booking required


9 Evenings: Theatre and Engineering was a series of performance evenings that took place in New York in October 1966. Artists and engineers from Bell Laboratories, with Robert Rauschenberg and engineer Billy Klüver as the driving forces, developed evenings that for the first time attempted to combine art and the latest technologies in creative acts.

Barbro Schultz Lundestam, one of the curators of the exhibition Party for Öyvind. Öyvind Fahlström & Friends, has created a series of 10 videos about the performances using archival material and interviews from participants, which will be presented on Friday 25 February from 6:30 pm and on Saturday 26 February from 1:30 pm in the exhibition's film room.
