Charles Atlas, Mika Tajima and New Humans: The Pedestrians
About
This ambitious live art presentation transforms the SLG's main gallery space into a hybrid installation/film set to create a dynamic space for live performance, music, video and sculpture.A walkway cuts through the space becoming at once arcade, exhibition, passage, runway and stage. Along the path are various objects and tableaux, including new scaffold sculptures and a selection of sculptural object arrangements that have come to be associated with Tajima's collaborative New Humans installations and performances over the years ' including elements such as cinema flats, mirrors, scaffolding, palettes of soft drinks, a junkyard car and a treadmill.
Structured around the theme of walking, the installation operates as a fully functioning film set, on view within our usual opening hours, during which rehearsals also take place for a series of events by a range of performers.
