DOK.fest goes schwere reiter
OPEN SCORE by Rauschenberg

schwere reiter

In cooperation with DOK.fest the schwere reiter presents cinema! The film "OPEN SCORE by Rauschenberg" recalls a legendary art event: the "9 Evenings: Theatre & Engineering" that took place in New York City in 1966. 10 artists, Robert Rauschenberg, John Cage, David Tudor, Yvonne Rainer, Robert Whitman, Steve Paxton, Alex Hay, Deborah Hay, Lucinda Childs, Öyvind Fahlström and thirty engineers from Bell Telephone Laboratories worked on a series of performances that combined dance, art and music with new technologies.

OPEN SCORE by Rauschenberg portrays one of those evenings: "My piece begins with an authentic tennis game with rackets wired for transmission of sound. The sound of the game will control the lights. (…) Tennis is movement. Put in the context of theatre it is a formal dance improvisation. The unlikely use of the game to control the lights and to perform as an orchestra interests me." (Robert Rauschenberg)
