Adam Linder

28 Feb-11 Mar 2018

Overview

The SLG presents the UK premiere of a new commission by the LA and Berlin-based choreographer, dancer and visual artist Adam Linder. The most ambitious of his choreographic “services” to date, No.5: Dare to Keep Kids Off Naturalism extends for fifty hours across ten days as four performers occupy the SLG’s main gallery, utilising modular costumes to create ever-changing architectonic formations that reconsider the relationship between their theatrical sensibility and the exhibition space. Linder’s practice explores the notion of choreography as an economically viable public service in the form of physical, performed labour, drawing on the disciplinary sensibilities of visual arts and its inscribed histories. See www.southlondongallery.org for performance times. Service No.5: Dare to Keep Kids Off Naturalism is a co-production of South London Gallery and Kunsthalle Basel.
