SUMMARY:On Truth and Lie in an Extra-Moral Sense - Frank Willens and Peter Stamer
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, August 11\, 2017 @ 8:00 PM\nSaturday\, August 12\, 2017 @ 5:30 PM \nPlease note: Seating is limited and available on a first-come\, first-served basis.\nNO RSVP needed. \nConceived\, directed\, set and staged by Peter Stamer\nPerformed by Frank Willens\nText by Friedrich Nietzsche\nAbridged and re-translated from German into English by Peter Stamer & Frank Willens \nPosthumous fragments: In some remote corner of the universe that is poured out in countless flickering solar systems\, there once was a star on which clever animals invented knowledge. That was the most arrogant and the most untruthful minute in ‘world history’ – yet indeed only a minute. After nature had taken a few breaths\, the star froze over and the clever animals had to die.\n(Friedrich Nietzsche\, 1873) \nIn the light of infinity\, the limited time a human being spends on this planet does appear tobe deplorable\, even ridiculous. Knowing about the futility of his existence\, man tries to comprehend life by means of language which locks him into the cage of concepts though. Language\, following Nietzsche\, denies access to the actual life of matter. Searching for knowledge about the world\, about truth\, about himself\, man gets lost in the woodwork of his own thinking. To put it casually: man becomes a blockhead\, unable to see what is there. Taking away the foundation of the boards that mean the world to him: this is what it means to live. \nFrank Willens (US/DE) is a dancer\, choreographer\, performer\, interpreter\, artist\, actor\, collaborator\, tour manager\, human\, father\, singer\, beat-boxer\, thinker\, marathon-runner\, train-traveler. He grew up in California and has lived and worked in Berlin since 2003 where he has had the privilege to work with a wide number of persons in a wide range of projects presented in a wide range of venues. His associates include Tino Sehgal\, Meg Stuart\, Falk Richter\, and Peter Stamer\, to name a few. Frank developed a project in collaboration with the Transform Festival in Leeds in 2015 and headed a residency/lab at the Kunstmuseum in Bonn in 2016. His new solo piece sixty minutes towards being here or what we can do until we do what we can do premiered in Berlin in January 2017 On Truth and Lie in an Extra-Moral Sense is his 5th collaboration with Peter Stamer. \nPeter Stamer (DE/A) is a theatre maker in the context of contemporary performing arts. In his projects\, he is interested in exploring conditions for discursive and physical empowerment within given performative\, social and narrative apparatuses. Currently\, Peter is working on a theatrical and installative adaptation of Kafka’s story In the Penal Colony (to premiere in 2017). \nPresented with support from the Getting To Know Europe program\, awarded by the Delegation of the European Union to the United States.

SUMMARY:60 Minutes towards being here - Frank Willens
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, August 15\, 2017 @ 8.00 PM\nWednesday\, August 16\, 2017 @ 8.00 PM \nPlease note: Seating is limited and available on a first-come\, first-served basis. NO RSVP needed. \nCreated and performed by Frank Willens.\nGuest musician: Klaus Janek \n… or this is probably going to be a downer\, or in lieu of addressing insurmountable graver circumstances\, or best to keep on believing\, or giddy-up\, cowboy\, or too old to be new\, or some more rituals from the discarded catalogue…the title can change\, but nothing is to be taken for granted…that’s another possibility\, nothing is to be taken for granted. \n60 Minutes towards being here is an encounter with the moment. It is a negotiation between fixed material and an ever-evolving situation whose conditions can’t be ignored\, a composition between a performer and a musician. Frank Willens sets the alarm for one hour and investigates the vast multiplicity of the given condition. \nFrank Willens (US/DE) is a dancer\, choreographer\, performer\, interpreter\, artist\, actor\, collaborator\, tour manager\, human\, father\, singer\, beat-boxer\, thinker\, marathon-runner\, train-traveler.

SUMMARY:Dirty Vestiges - Simone Aughterlony & Michael Günzburger
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, August 17\, 2017 @ 8.00 PM\nFriday\, August 18\, 2017 @ 8.00 PM \nPlease note: Seating is limited and available on a first-come\, first-served basis. NO RSVP needed. \nConcept and Performance: Simone Aughterlony & Michael Günzburger \nThis performance contains nudity\, Viewer discretion advised \nIn this dirty art-making practice Simone and Michael invite a collection of commonly understood domestic forms of dirt to confederate and co-perform on a high gloss reflective surface. With dust\, hair\, fat\, blood\, ash\, pigment and skin a temporary printing station is activated that pays close attention to qualities of materials\, their desires and orientations towards bodies and their transformation through intimacy and movement. With a knowing wink but certain irreverence towards art-historical references they stage a close-up inquiry into both the happenstance and determinism of dirt transmission. Attraction and repulsion are mutual forces that go beyond the surface and play out in this sleazy cleaning/mess making fantasy. In an intensely concentrated environment and companioned by a queer alchemy of materials\, Michael and Simone practice touch and the narratives produced by the surplus of touching. Vestige research accentuates the potentiality and futurity of indelible traces and acts as a response to the so-called ephemerality of performance. \nCreated within the project DRECK: EIN APPARAT at Ufer Studios Berlin\, a project initiated and produced by Stephanie Wenner that examined dirt and the communion of all things through a new materialist perspective. \nSimone Aughterlony is an independent artist based and supported in Zurich and Berlin\, working predominantly in dance and performance contexts. Over more than decade\, Simone she has been devising and producing choreographic works. As a performer she has worked with artists such as Meg Stuart/Damaged Goods\, Forced Entertainment and Jorge León\, Phil Hayes amongst others. In 2015 «Supernatural»\, a collaboration with artists Antonija Livingstone and Hahn Rowe premiered in American Realness while in the same year the performance project «Uni * Form»\, devised by Jorge León and Simone premiered at Zuercher Theater Spektakel. Alongside an extensive tour of these works and the «Biofiction Trilogy»\, she is currently touring with Jen Rosenblit «Everything Fits In The Room»\, a commission from HAU Hebbel am Ufer and Haus der Kulturen der Welt.  \nEngaging with alternative forms of kinship inside her process\, new constellations of family emerge as possibilities for reconfiguring a culture of togetherness that fosters both familiar and unknown quantities. Her works playfully compose with representation and its saturation\, seeping into and embracing the phenomenology of mis-recognition and the absurd. Simone approaches the performance genre as a world-building practice where she navigates the contradiction between the domination of desire alongside the agency of all elements. \nMichael Günzburger is a visual artist living in Zürich\, working with methods of drawing and printing and research on the reference to the materials of used production. Collaborations with other fields of the arts\, sciences and crafts like performer Ntando Cele\, writers Lukas Bärfuss and Raphael Urweider\, Masterprinter Thomi Wolfensberger\, hunters\, gatherers\, virologists\, genetic scientist\, etc. has always been an important part of his work. His works have been shown in galleries\, museums\, public spaces and project spaces across the world such as the Zürcher Kunsthaus\, Kunstmuseum Bern\, Galleries in Mexico D.F.\, Sao Paulo\, New York\, Paris\, Bern and Zürich in solo and group shows. They found their way into many private and public collection\, and he has received a numerous fellowships and grants. He is a research fellow at the Institute for Contemporary Art and Research (IFCAR) at the University of the Arts in Zürich (ZHdK). \nPresented with support from the Getting To Know Europe program\, awarded by the Delegation of the European Union to the United States

SUMMARY:MERCE (Maria Chavez/Shelley Burgon)\, Lucas Gorham
DESCRIPTION:MERCE is a duo comprised of harpist/electronic musician Shelley Burgon and turntablist Maria Chavez. Tracing it’s roots to the artists’ time in residence with the Merce Cunningham Dance company\, this project finds Maria and Shelley performing improvised pieces that employ loops and live processing. MERCE has performed at Issue Project Room\, MoMA PS1 and the Stone in New York City. This will be the duos’ first performance in Los Angeles. \nMaria Chavez is an avant-turntablist whose work has been known to focus on solo electric-acoustic sound pieces that use a collection of new and broken needles\, which she calls “pencils of sound.” Accidents\, coincidence and failures are themes that unite her sound sculptures\, installations and other works with her improvised solo turntable performance practice. \nShelley Burgon is a harpist\, composer and sound artist living and working in both NYC and CA. Shelley is currently a member in the chamber group Ne(x)tworks featuring Joan La Barbara and in Anthony Braxton’s Septet. As a soloist she performs ambient\, ethereal\, electronic music and enjoys making multichannel sound and light installations. \nLucas Gorham is an interdisciplinary artist whose work ranges from music (both pop and avant- forms) to conceptual art. Within the world of experimental music\, he is most known for his work on prepared lap steel guitar\, where his live performances seek to walk the line between meditative compositions and spastic improvisations. \nDoors at 7pm / Sound at 8pm

SUMMARY:It was quite a fiction
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 10th 7-10pm and\nFriday\, November 17th 7-10pm (2-day event) \nParticipants: Carmen Argote\, Harry Dodge\, Mariah Garnett\, Jennifer Moon\, Elliot Reed\, and Kandis Williams \nwith a screening of works by Ismail Bahri and Mounira Al Solh \nOrganized by Suzy Halajian and Clara López Menéndez \nIt was quite a fiction brings together artists and practitioners to participate in a two-day proposition that involves conversations and material practices. \nWe find ourselves constantly thinking about the disconnect between our daily experience and the political and institutional structures we are immersed in. How are these two realms of the personal and the political intra-acting? How does history lay the ground of our everyday experience and possibilities\, and in what ways does it impregnate the materiality of our work? Can what we do aesthetically\, materially\, socially\, emotionally\, intervene with larger agendas that seem unreachable\, oftentimes abstract\, and weighing over us? These questions\, among others\, will thread the program. \nWe are interested in thinking about these open-ended questions with the public at Human Resources. \nDuring our first meeting on November 10th\, we plan to discuss the disconnect between political and daily life in relation to our work and processes: how we do it\, where it exists\, and what we hope it enacts. The format of the second meeting on November 17th will take shape in the aftermath of our conversations\, where participants will perform\, or share a piece\, a work-in-progress\, a text or lecture. \nWe hope you join us. \nImage: Kandis Williams\, “We are too much in the habit of looking at falsehood in its darkest associations…That indignation which we profess to feel at deceit absolute\, is indeed only at deceit malicious. We resent calumny\, hypocrisy\, and treachery because they harm us\, not because they are untrue.” Ruskin\, 2017

SUMMARY:A Benefit Party for Human Resources Los Angeles
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Zackary Drucker\, Kibum Kim\, Eve Fowler\, Mara McCarthy\, Jackie Tarquino\, and Francois Ghebaly\, with Committee Co-Chairs Holly Stanton and Andrew Greene \nCocktails and Hor D’Ouvres – Full Moon Pickles\, Fort Point Beer\, Kikori Whiskey\nPerformances by Anenon and LA Fog \nHuman Resources is raising money for it’s 2018-2020 schedule of programming\, and would like to invite you to attend our Art Auction Viewing Party! Please come to eat\, drink\, be entertained\, learn about the history of Human Resources\, and meet the artists\, curators\, and organizers of Human Resources’ community. Also\, come to see the work of many of the artists we have come to know and work with over the last 8 years. \nWe believe that Human Resources serves a vital role in an art economy that often fails to recognize and support the work of both emerging and established artists who are exploring performative and experimental modes of expression. Our strategy has been to actualize our mission by putting the intentions and practices of artists\, curators\, and community activists first\, and by maintaining a decentralized decision-making process that allows for maximum community access — and maximum artistic freedom\, invention and brilliance. \nOver the past seven years\, our unique organizational model has produced an incredible outpouring of creative enterprises\, with a positive impact that far exceeds our walls. In recent history\, we have hosted the exhibitions and performances of Ligia Lewis\, Rafa Esparza\, E.J. Hill\, Artemisa Clark\, Dorian Wood\, Keijaun Thomas\, Yann Novak\, Michael Parker\, Martine Syms\, Gelare Khoshgozaran\, Dirty Looks\, and living legends like Kembra Pfahler\, Terre Thaemlitz\, Rocio Boliver\, Ron Athey\, as well as a rare production of Tino Seghal’s (Untitled) 2000. We strive to make the art community a better environment for all\, even for those who may not visit or work with HR directly. \nFrom the Human Resources team\, our most heartfelt thanks\, \nVardui Sharapkhanyan\, Managing Director\nLuke Fischbeck\nJennifer Doyle\nGiles Miller\nEric Kim\nShoghig Halajian\n​Devin Mcnulty \nlink to paddle8 auction live now! \nPARTICIPATING ARTISTS:\nScoli Acosta\, Mathis Altmann\, Edgar Arceneaux\, Carmen Argote\, Ron Athey\, Nora Berman\, Johanna Breiding\, Kristin Calabrese\, Carolyn Castaño\, Sam Durant\, Olivia Erlanger\, Patricia Fernandez\, Cristóbal Gracia\, Pippa Garner\, Mariah Garnett\, Laeh Glenn\, Piero Golia\, Sayre Gomez\, Justin John Greene\, Andrew J.

SUMMARY:It was quite a fiction
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, November 10th 7-10pm and\nFriday\, November 17th 7-10pm (2-day event) \nParticipants: Carmen Argote\, Harry Dodge\, Mariah Garnett\, Jennifer Moon\, Elliot Reed\, and Kandis Williams \nwith a screening of works by Ismail Bahri and Mounira Al Solh \nOrganized by Suzy Halajian and Clara López Menéndez \nIt was quite a fiction brings together artists and practitioners to participate in a two-day proposition that involves conversations and material practices. \nWe find ourselves constantly thinking about the disconnect between our daily experience and the political and institutional structures we are immersed in. How are these two realms of the personal and the political intra-acting? How does history lay the ground of our everyday experience and possibilities\, and in what ways does it impregnate the materiality of our work? Can what we do aesthetically\, materially\, socially\, emotionally\, intervene with larger agendas that seem unreachable\, oftentimes abstract\, and weighing over us? These questions\, among others\, will thread the program. \nWe are interested in thinking about these open-ended questions with the public at Human Resources. \nDuring our first meeting on November 10th\, we plan to discuss the disconnect between political and daily life in relation to our work and processes: how we do it\, where it exists\, and what we hope it enacts. The format of the second meeting on November 17th will take shape in the aftermath of our conversations\, where participants will perform\, or share a piece\, a work-in-progress\, a text or lecture. \nWe hope you join us. \nImage: Kandis Williams\, “We are too much in the habit of looking at falsehood in its darkest associations…That indignation which we profess to feel at deceit absolute\, is indeed only at deceit malicious. We resent calumny\, hypocrisy\, and treachery because they harm us\, not because they are untrue.” Ruskin\, 2017

SUMMARY:Flawless Sabrina Tribute
DESCRIPTION:Facebook RSVP\nFree\nFrank Simon\, The Queen\, 35mm\, 68min.\, 1968\nCourtesy of www.thequeen1968firstlegaldvd.com\nOn November 18th\, we lost one of the greats – Jack Doroshow / Flawless Sabrina was a fierce role model and pioneer of performance and queer cultures with a legacy that spans 7 decades of advocacy\, activism and drag. In 1967 she staged a drag pageant that was documented by director Frank Simon. We will screen the resulting feature\, The Queen – which is the first feature-length documentary dedicated to the art of drag – in honor of Sabrina\, our reigning queen. \nThe Queen offers one of the earliest cinematic documentations of a drag ball. Depicting the 1967 Miss All-America Camp Beauty Contest for female impersonators held at Town Hall in New York and organized by “mistress of ceremonies” Flawless Sabrina\, the film also features Crystal LaBeija\, who would gain greater fame years later for her appearance in Paris Is Burning. The contestants get settled in their hotel rooms\, gossip\, share beauty secrets\, and discuss their backgrounds. Topics of discussion include gay life\, sex change operations\, problems with the draft\, and “husbands” in the service. Andy Warhol judges the competition and Mario Montez makes a guest appearance\, singing “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend.” \nPresented by Dirty Looks. \nImage: Curtis Carman\, Drag Icon #5\, 8×10”\, 2014

SUMMARY:Heal Her
DESCRIPTION:#HealHer is a global action by women who are coming together to break the silence on violence. Meeting in circles around the world\, we create rituals dedicated to storytelling\, consciousness-raising\, empathetic listening\, and collective healing. \n2017 shifted the narrative on sexual violence. As we enter 2018\, join artists\, healers\, performers\, and activists in holding a space where survivors can speak for themselves and commit to the mutual journey of healing. \n* Bring a flower or offering for the ceremony. Each attendee will be given a healing charm to take home with them. * \nWomen who speak about harassment and assault are often shamed\, disbelieved\, or dismissed. As awareness about violence against women increases through campaigns such as #MeToo\, it is time for those who have been silenced to be heard. Heal Her uses the ancient concept of the women’s circle as a platform for participants to share survival stories\, coping strategies\, and experiences related to gender-based violence and trauma. Known as talking circles\, healing circles\, or moon circles\, the ritual of meeting in circles is rooted in indigenous practices that many communities still engage in today. By coming together through storytelling\, music\, dance\, and ritual\, circles promote group cohesion\, facilitate interpersonal communication\, and provide spiritual guidance. \nHeal Her launches in 2018 with events in Los Angeles\, New York\, Berlin\, Boston\, San Francisco\, London\, Paris\, Baltimore\, and Utrecht. To bring Heal Her to your community\, email healherproject@gmail.com. Collected stories and contributions will be turned into an interactive installation and website. #HealHer is a collaboration between Lena Chen and Annique Delphine\, organizers\, community groups\, activists\, and survivors worldwide. \nThe project has been made possible with funding from DAZA Filmes\, a women-led production company founded in 2010 by Leandra Leal\, Carol Benjamin\, and Rita Toledo in Brazil. Their feature-length documentary As Mil Mulheres / A Thousand Women will show the behind-the-scenes development of Heal Her. \n(Cover image by Annique Delphine) \n\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\ninstallation images courtesy of the artist

SUMMARY:New Performances
DESCRIPTION:An evening of short performance by: \nErica Magrey \nAmanda-Faye Jimenez \nAbigail Levine & Corey Fogel \nPasadena House Wives \n Erica Magrey is a Brooklyn-based interdisciplinary artist working with video\, performance\, music\, costume\, sculpture\, photography\, and set design. Her work playfully examines the embodiment of personas in order to inhabit familiar and foreign\, human and non-human characters\, performing an investigative relationship with them. Once conjured\, the persona’s fit may be surprising: like a deja vu glove\, a seamless transition; or\, bulkily\, somewhere on the spectrum toward needs alteration. In videos and live performances\, the audience bears witness to acts of transformation and embodiment; in interactive works\, the user is granted agency to participate in transformative manipulations. \nAmanda-Faye Jimenez is a Blaxican queer fat femme dyke writer and performer. She has performed at SORORITY at The Hammer Museum\, the Radar Productions Queer Readings Series\, and the McDonald’s in Silverlake next to her favorite gay bar. When she isn’t spilling her guts onstage\, she can be found creating semi-relatable social media content @failureprincess and letting her dogs kiss her on the mouth\, even though everyone says that’s some white people shit. \nAbigail Levine is a New York-based choreographer and performer. Her works are rooted in dance and draw from visual and performance art. Corey Fogel is a drummer and artist whose practice is based in momentary encounters often involving the intersection of sounds\, objects\, textiles\, foods. The two artists perform together for the first time on January 12 \nPasadena House Wives met at a cocktail and craft party held every third Sunday of the month at their country club. They bonded over mutual frustrations with absent husbands and annoying children\, their abilities to drink more cocktails then beads on a necklace\, and hot secretive affairs with their children’s college friends. They started playing music together because both their therapists suggested alternative modes of mental and physical release as a way to maintain a healthy outlook on life.

SUMMARY:Music by Tashi Wada
DESCRIPTION:Music by Tashi Wada\, performed by Charles Curtis\, Dafne Vicente-Sandoval\, Tashi Wada and Julia Holter \nThis program collects three long-form works by composer Tashi Wada that explore diverging aspects of tuning and tonality. Valence (2016)\, written for cellist Charles Curtis\, isolates and reharmonizes the natural overtones of a single string\, destabilizing and fusing tone and timbre through a delicate alchemy. Witness (2017)\, written for bassoonist Dafne Vicente-Sandoval\, draws out the relationship between an array of scales and tetrachords (four-note segments of scales) found traditionally in Greek\, Persian\, and Arabic musics\, in combination with hybrid and invented scales\, through repetition\, variation\, and improvisation. Mutable Signs\, Wada’s performance for keyboard\, voice\, and sirens with guest musician Julia Holter\, focuses on the outer edges of historical\, non-equal temperaments\, eliciting a more distant\, uneven sense of tonality. \n \nTashi Wada is a Los Angeles-based composer and performer whose works explore harmonic overtones\, resonance\, and dissonance through precise tuning and a gradual change in pitch. Grounded in a belief that “music should be as direct as possible\,” his compositions use apparently simple structures to generate rich and unanticipated perceptual effects. Working in relation to American experimental music\, microtonal music\, and so-called drone music\, Wada’s practice is also informed by interdisciplinary performance and Fluxus-affiliated artists. He studied composition at CalArts with James Tenney and for many years has performed alongside his father\, composer Yoshi Wada. \n \nAcknowledged internationally as a performer of new and experimental music\, cellist Charles Curtis has been associated with minimalist pioneer La Monte Young since 1987\, their intimate working relationship having yielded retroactive recalibrations of pieces like Young’s 1958 Trio for Strings. Curtis has created a new body of work for solo cello through additional close collaborations with composers Alvin Lucier\, Éliane Radigue\, Christian Wolff\, Alison Knowles and Tashi Wada. Rarely-heard works of Terry Jennings\, Morton Feldman and Richard Maxfield have also been signposts in a performing life that extends to membership in experimental rock band King Missile\, collaborations with Bongwater and Borbetomagus\, and studio appearances with the likes of Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. Straddling the boundaries between art rock\, sound art\, and minimalist composition with his own Charles Curtis Trio\, for Curtis the heterogeneity of his practice returns to the same simple values\, the same concerns for precision and specificity of expression and craftsmanship\, all in the service of a very fundamental human expression. Trained at Juilliard\, Curtis was First Solo Cellist of the NDR Symphony Orchestra in Hamburg before becoming Professor of Music at the University of California\, San Diego in 2000. \n \nJulia Holter is a composer\, performer\, and recording artist based in Los Angeles. Her interest in the mysteries of the sonic atmosphere has compelled her to record in various settings–in her home\, outside with a field recorder\, and in professional studios—as well as to perform live\, often with a focus on the voice. She has studied music composition at Cal Arts and University of Michigan and has performed at various venues and festivals around the world. She frequently collaborates in group projects as well\, with artist and musician friends Rick Bahto\, Ramona Gonzalez\, Tashi Wada\, Yelena Zhelezov\, Laurel Halo\, Mark So\, Cat Lamb\, Laura Steenberge\, and more. \n \nDafne Vicente-Sandoval is a bassoon player\, who explores sound through improvisation\, contemporary music performance and sound installations. Her instrumental approach is centered on the fragility of sound and its emergence within a given space\, testing the threshold between instability and control. Dafne currently lives in Paris. She favours long term collaborations within which her work keeps an integrity while holding a dialogue with that of others (current collaborations with Jakob Ullmann\, Éliane Radigue\, Klaus Lang\, Peter Ablinger). Her work has been shown in contemporary music festivals (Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival\, England; Musikprotokoll\, Graz; Blurred Edges\, Hamburg; El Nicho\, Mexico; Tectonics\, Glasgow)\, as well as in improvised music (Konfrontationen\, Austria; No Idea\, Texas) and sound art (Tsonami\, Chile) festivals.

SUMMARY:Meet the Candidate: Kristina Wong for Something or Other
DESCRIPTION:Kristina Wong is a performance artist\, comedian\, and hopefully with your vote\, a future disgraced Politician. After touring the world with original stage and guerrilla performance\, Kristina realized her artful spectacles could no longer compete with the shock of real life. Therefore\, Kristina has decided to move her performances onto the public stage and run for political office before 2030 or when the country implodes (whichever comes first). But first she needs a public think tank\, a slogan\, and people to bribe her. This night will be an experiment in crafting political narrative. It’s a combination of learning about Kristina’s 18 year history of performance work\, and also a group honing a vision of her campaign that will leave voters swooning. **This is her first public event\, so expect bumps. \nPresented by at land’s edge

SUMMARY:PRICE — Where Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations)
DESCRIPTION:Performance: 8 pm sharp\n$10 suggested donation \nPRICE is a hybrid fictional character born from the sea of information\, who explores the emotional disorientation of a generation having grown up with mass culture\, neoliberalism and the omnipresence of the internet. By probing the mechanisms of pop\, PRICE’s musical stories evoke instability\, fear\, and romantic disillusion. Where Do You Wanna Go Today reinvents itself from clubs to art galleries\, using these diverse contexts to affirm the frustration and solitude of a generation he considers to bedown-and-out. At a time when storytelling has taken over the collective psyche\, the artist’s sincere and ambiguous presence has testimonial value. \nThe performance Where Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations) works with a Pop Musical Audiobook (2017). The album is comprised of different acts\, songs and stories but is treated as a single work rather than a collection of individual pop hits of perfect length\, structure or quality\, and adopts a playful approach to comment on the ways music is perceived today. The title hints to the music’s composition in relation to the acts’ structure\, length\, melodies\, words and themes of geography\, texture and\, most importantly\, the contemporary disorientation of identities. \nBy restructuring pop songs and zapping through different architectural worlds\, this album evokes feelings of dislocation\, instability\, fear and the struggles involved in love and relationships. It advances a queer anonymity freed from any fixed cultural identity in an age of accelerating media exposure fixated on fame. \nWhere Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations) is performed by the voice and body of PRICE\, who in this work welcomes the audience to experience something ‘in between’ rather than accepting pre-labeled differences. It’s a piece that purposefully lacks direction\, triggering nostalgic moods that remind us how to start all over again. \nPerforming Artist Mathias Ringgenberg (aka PRICE\, * 1986 in Rio de Janeiro\, lives and works in Zürich) In his current performative works called\, Where Do You Wanna Go Today (Variations)\, Can’t say much about anything that’s new and the associated debut album Greatest Hits or his video performances A: I am impressed B: Well – I am in love\, Home is a place we all have to find or You don’t touch it\, it touches you\, Mathias Ringgenberg\, developed the fictional character PRICE. \n \nConcept & Performed  PRICE (Mathias Ringgenberg) \nDramaturgy & Character Coach Mira Kandathil \nMovement Research Ivan Blagajcevic \nVoice Coach Katarzyna Sitarz \nMusic PRICE \nMusic Producer Alban Schelbert\, Modulaw \nCostume Design BARRAGÁN \nGraphic Design Bart de Baets \nPhotography Senta Simond \nCo-Production Arsenic – Contemporary Performing Arts Center\, Lausanne\, STUK – House for Dance\, Image & Sound\, Leuven \nSpecial thanks to Tanzhaus Zürich\, Workspace Brussels\, Montevideo Marseille\, Vitlycke – Centre for Performing Arts and Mario Winkler Company GmbH \nThis project is supported by Pro Helvetia\, Swiss Cultural Foundation\, the City of Zurich\, Canton of Zurich\, Ernst Göhner Foundation \nhttp://theworkofprice.tumblr.com/\nhttps://soundcloud.com/price-music/sets/price-where-do-you-wanna-go-today

SUMMARY:Sweet
DESCRIPTION:An evening of music videos premieres from Eddington Again and Tolliver with live performances by \nEddington Again \nTolliver \nHunger City \nDJ Bae Bae \nSpecial guest TBA \n  \nEddington Again \nEddington Again describes themselves as “African American Indigo excellence here to transcend the mundane”. Their lyrics speaks on adventures in the East Hollywood/Downtown LA community\, navigating as a queer black being in society and the metaphysical aspects of existing.

SUMMARY:While I was also listening to ...
DESCRIPTION:image: David Horvitz\, Ocean Sounds (2017) \nWhile I was also listening to Krysten\, LeRoy\, Julien\, Jennie\, Félicia\, David\, Yann\, Luke\, Sarah… \nLa Criée\, in partnership with Human Resources LA\, invites seven artists to expand the notion of narrative and improvisation. Performing narrative\, deconstructing storytelling; this session of While I was also listening to … challenges the traditional approach to narration\, opening up the horizon of what narrative is or how a story can be told. \nA choreographed narration responding to a set of live instructions. A translation of a language and sounds we cannot really write about – but only experience. A series of “automated” books speaking in tongues. A dialogue unfolding with or without words An thread that is an allegory of narration\, linking bodies and stories together. An unexpected and silent presence\, reminding us that every story in order to exist\, need to be listened to. \nThe duration of each performance varies between 5 and 30 minutes. \nArtists and performers: \nKrysten Cunningham\nThe Human Luminescence\nAn interactive performance project for four performers. Inspired by left-brain\, right brain experiments\, it explores a bodily counterbalance to spoken language and orality. \nFélicia Atkinson and Julien Bismuth\nTalking with or without words\nThe artists will engage in an improvised conversation using sound\, objects and images… \nLeRoy Stevens\nPerforming books\nStevens will perform with books that emit pre-recorded sound compiled from television\, radio and other sources. \nJennie Liu\nThe Telling\nA remote-controlled performance with performer/potter Laura Stinger. In The Telling\, choreographer Liu relates her embodiment through a context off-site to Stinger\, who processes what she is receiving via several forms of orature: vocal\, gestural\, material. \nDavid Horvitz\nWhen the Ocean Sounds\nThe artist – together with the audience – performs a text translation of the sounds of the Ocean. (participatory performance\, variable duration) \nLucky Dragons\nLucky Dragons open the door \nYann Sérandour\nAudience dog\nAn unexpected and silent presence wearing a dog mask playfully reminds of the training techniques to give better public speeches by rehearsing in front of a dog. It also refers to the stillness of the performance and to the absence of verbal language. Performing silently for the whole duration of the evening\, Sérandour makes visible the act of listening to –which gives the title to the whole program– and reminds us to pay attention to the multiple narrations unfolded. \nWhile I was also listening to NY & LA is a performative extension of the yearlong series of exhibitions and events Alors que j’écoutais moi aussi […] developed at La Criée centre for contemporary art\, Rennes\, France\, in 2017. This program was conceived and organized by Sophie Kaplan\, director of the art centre\, in close collaboration with three associated artists: Félicia Atkinson\, Julien Bismuth\, and Yann Serandour. The American poet and performer David Antin is the figurehead of this ambitious and polyphonic program. \nWhile I was also listening to NY & LA takes place in Los Angeles at Human Resources on March 22nd and in New York at Artists Space on March 27th and at the Emily Harvey Foundation on March 30th and March 31st. \nThe different components of this project are linked by a common thematic and conceptual concern\, that of narrative. What is a narrative in art (i.e. as exemplified by the two extremes of a personal story and a general art history)? How is narrative used as a medium and form in the arts? How does narrative in turn generate different forms of interdisciplinarity and intermediality? \nOn March\, 22nd\, the first event takes place at Human Resources L.A.\, featuring Krysten Cunningham\, LeRoy Stevens\, David Horvitz\, Jennie Liu and her performers\, Félicia Atkinson and Julien Bismuth\, Yann Sérandour and Lucky Dragons. \nOn March 27th\, the second event takes place at Artists Space\, N.Y.\, featuring Julien Bismuth\, Charles Bernstein\, Jay Sanders\, Tan Lin\, and Ellen Zweig. \nOn March 30th\, the third event takes place at the Emily Harvey Foundation\, featuring Morgan Bassichis\, Constance DeJong\, Wayne Koestenbaum\, Sara Magenheimer\, Félicia Atkinson and Yann Sérandour and is followed on March 31st by workshops led by Svetlana Kitto\, Julien Bismuth and Lucy Ives. \nThe Paris based Italian curator Alessandra Prandin has been invited by La Criée to coordinate and curate this American chapter with local partners Luke Fischbeck from Human Resources in Los Angeles and Rachel Valinsky (Wendy’s Subway) in New York. The event at Artists Space is curated by artist Julien Bismuth\, poet Charles Bernstein and curator Jay Sanders. \nWhile I was also listening to NY & LA is made possible thanks to the generous support of Institut Français / Ville de Rennes / Rennes\nMétropole / Ambassade de France / Ministère de la culture – Drac Bretagne.
