Arts Catalyst present an exhibition chronicling the history of Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.), the group who were behind the legendary 9 Evenings: Theatre and Engineering event in 1966, exactly fifty years ago.
About
The exhibition will include archival presentations and film screenings, making public this rich history of pioneering cross-disciplinary collaboration. An accompanying talks programme developed, in collaboration with Afterall’s Exhibition Histories series, will reflect on the histories of art and technology in performance, transdisciplinary collaboration, and the influence of the 1960s on contemporary art today.
On Friday 7 October Arts Catalyst presents a night of performance with a new commission by Robert Whitman (of E.A.T.) titled 9 Evenings: Theatre and Engineering Revisited, 1966/2016. This event is ticketed.
This programme is supported by Arts Council England, Cockayne – Grants for the Arts, The London Community Foundation, PACE, Afterall, Central Saint Martins, UAL, King’s Cross and Goldsmiths, University of London.
* Please note: the exhibition and event are held at two different locations in Kings Cross, London
