Camille Norment Rapture, 2015 Nordic Pavillon at the 56th Venice Biennale If, as the Norwegian experimental composer Arne Nordheim commented, “Music lives in the span between poetry and catastrophe” the visitor to the Nordic Pavilion will walk into such a sculptural and sonic installation of conflicting forces, a place torn between poetry and catastrophe, a space between a body in trauma and a body in rapture. Rapture, a site-specific multi-sensory space structured in three parts; an architectural intervention, a set of performances by musicians and vocalists unfolding during the opening days and at specific times during the Biennale, and a series of three publications, which explore the relationship between the human body and sound, through the visual, the sonic and the architectural body.

Project of the Day—Harry Bertoia made hundreds of sound sculptures before his passing in 1978, many of which have never been widely released. Now, Important Records wants to put together high quality digital transfers of over 350 hours of Bertoia’s Sonambient work, including 11 LPs—which was made using the sound properties of various metals—so that his legacy can be properly preserved.

Grygar’s work was inspired by the rhythmic taps and scratches that attended the making of marks on paper. For Grygar, the “acoustic event” would “from that point on be stronger for me than color.” Sound was then the juncture between hand and the space it moved through, between the drawing tool (be it a hand alone or an object driven by a hand) and a sheet of paper.
