Support provided for the participation of artists Jan Christensen (b.1977, Copenhagen, Denmark, lives and works in Berlin, Germany) and Anders Fjøsne (b.1981, Oslo, lives and works Oslo, Norway) in the group exhibition ‘Let the Rhythm Hit Em’ at Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien in Berlin, Germany. According to curator Matthias Mayer, the project revolves around the questions ‘Is it possible to arrive at a musical form from a visual art starting point? And the other way around?’. Christensen and Fjøsne have indicated that they will produce an ‘installation consisting of several synthesizers and samplers, audio distorters and equipment that modulates and manipulates audio’. Visitors to the exhibition will generate sound by interacting with the installation. Other participating artists include Oni Ayhun, David Blandy, Matthew Burbidge/ Sonja Ostermann, Diego Castro, Sophie Clements, Die Tödliche Doris and Jérôme Chazeix. Curator: Matthias Mayer, freelance curator/artist based in Berlin, Germany
