Helicopter, Beatrijsstraat 10 Den Haag (Enter through the blue gate opposite Cafe Elta)
Free entrance!
ArtScience bachelor 3rd year opens their intimate world of multi-sensorial exploration, pulling at tradition with varying pressure. To fasten means to make secure, but also to single out, to concentrate on. Let us be your guide in broadening the width of what you thought you could possibly perceive.
This self-initiated exhibition is made in collaboration with Helicopter; a collective of thirteen artists and musicians.

////////// OORCONTACT + DANIELLE DAVIDSON
Electronic improvisation duo Oorcontact collaborates with visual artist Daniëlle Davidson. She draws and paints spontaneously using a variety of materials while Oorcontact instantly compose their music. Both image and music are purely improvised, and both are continuously reacting to one another in a constant dialogue.
“In our live performances a view of the paintings, filmed by a camera, is projected on a large surface both for the audience and the musicians. The imagery ranges from very abstract and very focused on the material itself (mostly in the case of paint, some of which is home-made) to very figurative and expressive (mostly in the case of pencils, crayons and markers).”

Suzuki Junzo, known for his celestial guitar solos and from the group MIMINOKOTO with releases on PSF, joins Tabata together to form their duo 20 GUILDERS. Since 2007 they have been exploring their common roots – Psych Rock and Psych Folk, with guitars and vocals. In Japan, the duo has two studio album releases from GYUUNE CASSETTE, as well as running a label Gulden Muzik. In US, they release LPs and cassettes from labels such as Nod and Smile Records, Eye Vibe Records. The duo’s first instrumental guitar ambient album “il grande silenzio” was released from Gulden Muzik in 2018. Apart from their signature songs, the duo performs in experimental sets with their ambient guitar music. In April 2019 they released an acoustic studio live album, “Acoustic Motherfuckers.” The electric and cosmic folk duo sets out on their first international tour May 2019. http://20guilders.bandcamp.com http://www.tabatamitsuru.com/tabatamitsuru_bio.html http://suzukijunzo.org/top_index.htm
