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.
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
Performances at Anthology Film Archives by by Loren Mazzacane Connors, Alan Licht & Jandek.
A specially commissioned performance for organ. “The course of the stars were to be put to sound.”
To Rococo Rot member Robert Lippok performing for the first time in the UK with his solo project.
The queer archiving of traumatic cultural memory from one of the leading voices working with queer archives.
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
Do art forms like black radical poetry, free jazz and improvisation create a space for the performance of freedom? Did they ever? And can they still do so now?
Akio Suzuki and John Butcher performing in an abandoned oil tanker on Hoy.
A solo improvisation using just the situation of the concert: a space, a PA, Mattin’s own thoughts, you, the audience.
Join Brian as he ruminates on the history of how experimental filmmakers and sound artists have drifted into and taken over galleries in order to show their work.
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.
Location: Around and about the old public library in Easterhouse; disinvested in and left to rot by the council but which was shamelessly, hastily and superficially cleaned by them in expectation of our event.
