About

Saturday 23 October, 2010 Eastside Projects As part of Supersonic Festival Düsseldorf-based artist Christian Jendreiko is known for making actions with large ensembles of trained or untrained performers in novel, site-specific settings. Jendreiko specifically seeks to reconsider acoustics as aspects of how body and mind are constructed, through a decentralized and sculptural approach towards performance. Lasting anywhere between two and seven hours and featuring classically trained musicians alongside untrained performers in nonhierarchical and improvisatory fashion, Jendreiko transforms groups into social sculpture. For the Birmingham premiere of 'GOTTESRAUSCHEN (GOD'S WHITE NOISE): Action for Players, Guitars & Amplifiers', a number of musicians and artists will perform at Eastside Projects over the course of 7 hours. Intended as a performance for an indeterminate number of guitarists and amplifiers, and taking its cue from a passage by Friedrich Schiller on man's relationship to a series of sensual and formal compulsions (For all beauty is ultimately but a property of ... movement"), GOD'S WHITE NOISE will unfold over a single day, with guests free to enter, circulate throughout, and remain in the gallery space as long as they wish.
