Inspired by the improvised Festival 200 (which took place at Charlottenborg in 1969), the visual concept and graphic design is based on a lo-fi, ad-hoc and at-hand treatment of wheatpasted prints that neatly blend text and archival images, to the walls of the building. The results features over hundred archival images as well and caption texts on the history of Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

The show featured more than hundred archival images as well and caption texts, and in close editorial collaboration with curators Julia Rodrigues and Francesca Astesani (South into North), became a leading curatorial element guiding visitors through the 140 year old history of Kunsthal Charlottenborg.

In the summer of 1969, the building in which Kunsthal Charlottenborg opened in 1883 celebrated its 200th anniversary by a 14-day exhibition entitled Festival 200. Art historian Troels Andersen was the organiser of the activities transforming the exhibition space into a workshop with the creation of a printing press, film screenings as well as bathrooms by Poul Gernes etc. A daily news bulletin was printed together with the participants’ offset experiments. Erik Hagen, Tom Krøjer and Bjørn Nørgaard were regular printers.

stanza followed a like-minded approach carefully choosing papers and printed everything at their studio as well as on-site, during the installation days.
