Marble Surplus in London 'Oslo's Emerging Cityscape', a new exhibition at London's Oxo Tower Wharf, will present the award-winning Oslo Opera House and the urban regeneration scheme of Oslo's seafront where numerous British and international firms are now competing to design the new Munch Museum and other buildings.
The exhibition will also feature 'Marble Surplus' by Gisle Kverndokk, which was composed especially for the opening of the Opera House and based on the sounds that the marble makes. The composition was recorded with the four musicians Rune Martinsen, Laila Sjørbotten, Jonas Blomqvist and Pål Bugge performing on La Facciata marble, with sound design and production by Cato Langnes and Asbjørn Blokkum Flø from NOTAM.
The exhibition is organised by the Royal Norwegian Embassy, the City of Oslo and Visit Oslo.
