STATES of EMERGENCY | Finissage | Live audiovisual performance by Hannu Karjalainen

About

Join us on March 27th for our STATES of EMERGENCY finissage (6-9 PM), featuring a live audiovisual performance by award-winning Finnish visual artist and musician Hannu Karjalainen.

Karjalainen will be performing a variation of his most recent audiovisual project LUXE, playing a live soundtrack to a special edit of its accompanying video work.

✧ Performance starts at 7 PM. Duration: 30-35' ✧

The event marks the conclusion of our ongoing group exhibition STATES of EMERGENCY, bringing together 18 international artists of the MOMENTUM Collection, addressing the question of what is the role of the artist in a state of emergency.

The exhibition calls to artists as cultural first-responders, asking them to translate the felt experience of our time into visual languages, making sense of our precarious times through video art, performance, photography, installation and beyond.
