Season 7 installations at Centre for the Less Good Idea
Wednesday Sep 22 - Sunday Sep 26
Arts on Main, 264 Fox St, Maboneng, City Centre
Still Life A new silent video work and installation by artist Browyn Lace and musician Anne Vanschothorst and poet Antjie Krog. In Lace's four-screen video installation a collection of bones, cleaned, gilded, in some cases threaded is dutifully photographed and digitally blended into one, accompanied by a suspended and re-assembled ostrich ribcage and pelvis. These works find themselves in conversation with landscape music composer Anne Vanschothorst’s spoken word project klip lied snaar, a collaborative compositional project made in response to the poetry and voice of Antjie Krog.
Pepper's Ghost An installation consisting of four different elements, including: the surreal The Library of Babel, Metamorphosis, an installation exploring themes of physicality, interpretation and animality through mirrors, voice and manipulated footage, Witnesses, a new video installation by William Kentridge, and Beyond the Pale, a meditation drawing on Homi K Bhabha’s work Art of Multicultural Translation.
The installations are on view from 11:00-17:00 and entrance is free.
