FRIDAY LATE Art Licks x V&A Friday 26 September 18.30 – 22.00 I will be taking part in the first UK performance of JocJonJosch's group work Ouroboros at Art Licks x V&A. Ouroboros was previously performed in Switzerland for the opening weekend of JocJonJosch's three-month retrospective exhibition at the Valais Art Museum in Sion, November/December 2013. Performances of Ouroboros will take place in the Raphael room where a series of the master's cartoons hang. Performance times are 6.45pm, 7.45pm, 8.45pm. Space is limited. See website for details. Ouroboros Room 48a 18.45, 19.45 & 20.45 As a collective of three artists JocJonJosch are interested in issues of identity relating to the individual and the group. Ouroboros takes the shape of a cell like organism, formed of human figures in constant flux, invoking ideas of ‘searching’ in the context of the human condition and drawing on Borges’s image of The Library of Babel. This will be the first performance of Ouroboros outside of Switzerland, where it was performed as part of a solo exhibition for the Manor Prize 2013 in the Valais Art Museum, Sion, Switzerland. This performance will include nudity. No photography is allowed. jocjonjosch.com | Emerging artists, upcoming artist-run spaces and independent curatorial projects take over the Museum for the night. Featuring the grass roots of visual culture in London, September’s Friday Late is a collaboration between the V&A and Art Licks and a preview to the Art Licks weekend (3rd–5th October). Art Licks launched in 2010 as a platform for the lesser-known and under-represented activities on the London art scene, operating through several strands of activity, including tours, events, a magazine and website. Come and celebrate with us the ever changing energy of this creative city. |

Call out for performers - I have a proposal for a performance installation shortlisted for a live art + performance festival in Manchester. This will take place on Saturday, 4 October 2014. As there is only a small amount of time available between the confirmation date and the event and I need to recruit some performers/participants I am posting a provisional call out. Please have a look and if you are seriously interested in being part of this performance then please complete and send the Participant Application. There is a link for this on the Home page |
