Du er inviteret, når Nikolaj Kunsthal åbner udstillingen "Alison Knowles: Retrospektiv 1960-2022". Den nyligt afdøde amerikanske kunstner Alison Knowles’ værker kan opleves i Nikolaj Kunsthal til foråret – selvsamme sted hvor hun i begyndelsen af 1960’erne var med til at grundlægge fluxus-bevægelsen. Den retrospektive udstilling er generøs i sin formidling af hendes mangeårige virke i perioden 1960–2022, og i anledning af udstillingen genopføres en række af hendes performances og happenings. Åbningsfesten finder sted fredag den 24. april kl. 16.00-20.00. Programmet byder blandt andet på en genopførelse af "Piece for Any Number of Vocalists" (1962) samt "Make a Soup" (1962), anført af Amalie og Floras Middage. Derudover kan man opleve den publikumsinddragende begivenhed "Celebration Red" (1962), hvor gæster opfordres til at medbringe et rødt objekt.
Isa Ryong står bag DJ-pulten, og der er gratis øl fra Depanneur til de første gæster.
Udstillingen "Alison Knowles: Retrospektiv 1960–2022" er kurateret af kunsthistoriker Karen Moss og organiseret af BAMPFA. Udstillingen er realiseret med støtte fra Terra Foundation for American Art, Dr. Rosalyn M. Laudati og Dr. James Pick samt National Endowment for the Arts, Københavns Kommune, Statens Kunstfond, Augustinus Fonden, Aage og Johanne Louis-Hansens Fond, Knud Højgaards Fond og Beckett-Fonden.

You are invited to the opening of the exhibition Alison Knowles: Retrospective 1960–2022 at Nikolaj Kunsthal!
The recently deceased American artist Alison Knowles’ works can be experienced at Nikolaj Kunsthal – the very place where, in the early 1960s, she helped found the Fluxus movement. The retrospective exhibition is generous in its presentation of her long artistic career from 1960 to 2022, and on the occasion of the exhibition, a number of her performances and happenings will be re-enacted.
The opening event will take place on Friday 24 April 16:00–20:00. The programme includes a re-enactment of "Piece for Any Number of Vocalists" (1962) as well as "Make a Soup" (1962), led by Amalie og Floras Middage. Visitors can also take part in the participatory event "Celebration Red" (1962), where guests are encouraged to bring a red object.
Isa Ryong will be behind the DJ decks, and the first guests will be offered free beer courtesy of Depanneur.
