What's on in London: I’ve been looking for things that last
An evening of intimate performances curated by SERAFINE1369.
Curated by artist and choreographer SERAFINE1369, I’ve been looking for things that last is an evening of intimate performances commissioned by Home Live Art.
Presented at Shoreditch Town Hall, the event will showcase four pieces of dance, created by Adam Christensen, keyon gaskin, Florence Peake, and SERAFINE1369.
“We’re thrilled to collaborate with SERAFINE1369, whose continuing exploration into new and innovative ways of engaging both artists and audiences perfectly captures the pioneering spirit of the original Performance Salons..." explains Katy Baird, Artistic Director of Home Live Art. "This collaboration continues to uphold the core values that have driven our organisation for 25 years, redefining how we experience performance in exciting new ways.”
“I'm super happy to be invited to reimagine Home Live Art’s Performance Salons and to curate the work of other artists that inspire me..." says SERAFINE1369. "I am a fan of performance as well as a maker so there is always a deep pleasure in curating and I am curious about the ways that viewing different works in sequence can deepen meaning and transform perspective."
"The vision for the evening is connected to my recent work, The Ways, the Fortune, the Fall, a show about cycles, returns and decomposition..." adds SERAFINE1369. "There will be a dark, stripped back feeling to I've been looking for things that last and I am looking forward to receiving whatever will emerge from the cracks."
“We’re delighted to celebrate Home Live Art’s 25th anniversary by hosting I’ve been looking for things that last at Shoreditch Town Hall..." says Ellie Browning, Head of Cultural Programme at Shoreditch Town Hall. "We’re always excited by artists who transform our spaces, creating unexpected and unique experiences for audiences and SERAFINE1369's curated evening in our grand Assembly Hall, promises exactly that.”
I’ve been looking for things that last will be presented at Shoreditch Town Hall on 25 October
