Jarringly beautiful and often maniacal expression of hallucinatory and very personal visions.
TEST is a collective creative improvising quartet based out of the NYC Underground (figuratively and literally). Their street-hardened, spatial Jazz is riotous and intense: is also makes us think about collective organization, and different ideas of responsibility and liberty.
A collaborative duo performance, Anoyonodekigoto sets up a sort of negotiation between a musician, a dancer, the audience and the space we’re all sharing.
A short chat about what we (Arika) might be trying to do with our program for the Biennial.
Can we use sound, repetition and difference to personally and collectively engage with space, time and labour?
A stroboscopic and intense sensory overload of flashing abstract forms, cut to ribbons by modified projectors.
A riot of 60’s psychedelia, magick, ritual and tight black leather, this programme highlights underground innovators who use and subvert pop music for their own experimental ends; and be warned, in Anger, there’s real darkness.
Julius Eastman’s Evil Nigger for 4 pianos performed by Joe Kubera, Kate Thompson, David Murray, Alan Fearon and Simon Passmore.

Bleu Shut reveals, and allows us to enjoy, our gullibility within the pervasive absurdity of modern life.
