Hundred Years Gallery

Yesterday I went to see the impressive Bells from The Deep show at the Hundred Years Gallery in Hoxton. The artist Montse Gallego directs this well-known international gallery, and the highly respected music part of their creative programmes is organised and led by musician Graham Mackeachan. 
    Graham told me about an event which they held on the 31st January, during which they set up a network of tubes on both floors of the gallery, through which they projected live readings of various texts, including extracts from Rabelaisdada. Above and below are some of the photos of this performance, by kind permission of HYG.​
    The artist Jill Rock read from Rabelaisdada, and the musicians Saul Eisenberg and Giles Leaman performed with their Junk Orchestra – altogether an intriguing multi-sonic and multi-text performance, with the children evidently also enjoying taking part.                                  Many thanks to Montse and Graham.
Here are two short extracts from the film of Rabelaisdada:

Bells From the Deep (http://www.hundredyearsgallery.com/bells-from-the-deep-exhibition-2016/) was named after Werner Herzog’s film about Russian mysticism, and the works on display are strikingly virtuosic, from Neville Sattentau’s paintings in vivid tempera colours inspired by medieval illuminated manuscripts and Persian miniatures, to Gianluca Bonomo’s breathtaking image of a flock of torch-headed birds flying towards you, realised in ballpoint pen, though looking as if precisely engraved.
