‘His disciples said: “When will you be revealed to us and when will we see you?” Jesus said: “When you unclothe yourselves without being ashamed.”’
– Gospel of St Thomas
For the final night at Hackney Church: two legends. We welcome the return of Charlemagne Palestine, who played on the opening weekend of our first festival in 2013 and this time performs a major new work for solo organ, and the first visit by Beatriz Ferreyra, one of the pioneers of musique concrète – colleague of Ligeti, Pierre Schaeffer and Earle Brown.
Apartment House present a newly commissioned sequel to Laura Steenberge’s transcendent work Perseus Slays the Gorgon Medusa, alongside a UK premiere by British modernist James Clarke. We continue our focus on the London experimental scene with a joyous new commission Songs to strip by by Andy Ingamells and Yseult Cooper-Stockdale, and a new work by dove/Christine Kirubi and Shenece Oretha, two core members of the blue house, a experimental collective based at the fabled former Hackney squat Sutton House.
The great Burrows & Fargion offer a new interpretation of Flash Piece – a happening by Japanese artist Mieko Shiomi – and a couple of true tricksters, the artists Matt Copson and Amalia Ulman, present two mysterious new works.
