The Office for… 1 September
'The Office for… 1 September' marks the launch of the OCA’s newest publication.
The publication features the original English translation of Tor Åge Bringsværd’s short story The Man Who Collected the First of September, 1973 alongside newly commissioned responses by curator Mi You and artist Lesia Vasylchenko, as well as a contextual essay by OCA’s former Head of Programme, Mike Sperlinger.
The event will include a short introduction by Mike Sperlinger, followed by a conversation between artist Marte Aas, a longtime admirer of Bringsværd's story, and artist Lesia Vasylchenko, who contributed to the publication. A small serving of drinks will be offered, and guests can pick up a free copy of the publication.
The publication is accompanied by a video interview with Bringsværd, recorded on 20 February 2025, discussing the story and its strange afterlife.
Welcome to 'The Office for… 1 September' at Kunstnernes Hus Kino, 1 September, 17:00.
