Après sa belle performance au Centre Pompidou dans le cadre du vernissage de l’exposition ” Who You Staring At? Culture visuelle de la scène no wave des années 1970 et 1980 “, Rhys Chatham foulera avec majesté le sol brisé du Chair De Poule vendredi 24 février à 21h.

I seem to be making a habit of playing at art openings, this week I’ll be at the Centre Pompidou in Paris in the context of an exhibition on the No Wave scene in New York entitled ” Who are you staring at ? ” The opening is on Wednesday 01 February at 7pm. I go on around 8pm.

I’ll be presenting an excerpt from my new solo for transverse flutes (alto and C) and eletric guitar.

The exhibition will include art, posters, books and video by/on Kathy Acker, Ida Applebroog, Karole Armitage/me, Beth B and Scott B, Glenn Branca/Dan Graham, Vivienne Dick, Barbara Ess, Joseph Nechvatal, Raymond Pettibon and sound excerpts from Arto Lindsay, Live Skull, Sonic Youth and more.

There will be an excerpt playing continuously from XS, an opera by Joseph Nechvatal with music from yours truly.

For details on the exhibition, click here.

The opening was a success! It was well attended and a grand time was had by all. The artist Chrystel Egal was at the performance and made a little film to document it:
