Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
When we look, how do we objectify the body; how can we reflect on our (self) image as a construction?
Paul Sharits is one of our all time heroes, and one of the great artist filmmakers of the 20th Century.
Haino exceeds expectation with a 4 hour solo performance on a collection of more than forty instruments from all over the world.
A series of badly felted lock-ups and garages + multiple locations within the Megastructure – a purpose built town centre in one building, comprising (in the 50’s at least) of housing (never occupied), shops, apartments, a hotel, ice rink, police station and other amenities
Transfeminist, communist, revolutionary poetry that refuses to flinch. Nat Raha presents new work in the nine.
This set continues on from the Bud Neill inspired clatter using the contents of the Usurper twin’s pockets.
If life is assaulted by power, where do we find spaces for living? A conversation with Peter Pál Pelbart.
Rare UK performance by legendary Japanese post punk group during their 4 drummers + synth / vocals phase.
A beautifully crisp, slowly evolving duo for cello and projected images. Abstract but still figurative; change only noticeable after the fact.
Goodwin’s writing emanates from the social life of poetry, from a condition of entanglement before historically racially-specific forms of representation. Another word for this emanation is breath.
Junko’s screaming vocal in a nuanced, piercing duo with Urabe’s fuming and convulsive saxophone, far removed from the codes of musical tradition.
Solo performance on bass clarinet, jaw harp & voice by Arrington De Dionyso.
