Acts of Air: Reshaping the urban sonic - Launch Event

An online exhibition curated by Lisa Hall

Launching 16 July 2020, 9.00 BST & 20.00 BST

'Acts of Air' invites you to reshape your urban sonic present by enacting these 14 sound works directly in urban spaces. Bringing together artists based around the world, each work invites a sounding out, a performance, a site specific listening or engagement in the streets, under bridges, by water fountains and extractor fans. They offer a means to explore and interrogate our cities of sound, and can be enacted and activated anywhere around the globe.

Artists: Agnes Paz, Anna Lann, Anna Raimondo, Anne Leilehua Lanzilotti, Catherine Clover, Cedric Maridet, Colin Priest, Jacek Smolicki, Julieanna Preston, Kate Brown, Raheel Khan, Vagné, Vitório O. Azevedo and Yara Mekawei.

The two online launch events will both include talks by the curator, Lisa Hall, presentations from the artists, plus a live online performance, 'RMP hums, choral, viral', directed by Julieanna Preston. The performance invites participation - more information will be shared upon RSVP.
