Elizabeth Price’s trilogy of new multi-channel video works, SLOW DANS, is currently presented by Artangel in London for the first time. The large-scale installation conceived by for a repurposed 19th-century assembly room on Borough Road closes on 25 October 2020. Limited availability. Book now.
About
The three works that make up SLOW DANS – KOHL, FELT TIP and THE TEACHERS – present a fictional past, parallel present and imagined future, interweaving compact narratives that explore social and sexual histories and our changing relationship between the material and the digital.
Price’s works feature a montage of image, graphics, speech and sound, designed to be experienced in a darkened space. The works are between 5 and 10 mins in duration and presented across a total of ten suspended screens, with each piece spanning over six metres in width or height. Visitors are able to view the works from seating arranged across the space as well as from a mezzanine level. The viewing time for SLOW DANS is 25 minutes. Visitors are able to view the full cycle twice within a one-hour pre-booked slot.
This is the first major show of Price’s work in London since she was awarded the Turner Prize in 2012.
