Unsound New York Labs kicks off at ISSUE Project Room with a series of collaborations: HATI (PL) collaborates with Z’ev (US); MERCE, a collaboration between harpist Shelley Burgon & avant-turntablist Maria Chavez (US); and Anna Zaradny (PL) collaborates with New York-based Walkman manipulator Aki Onda (US). Unsound Labs comes from the idea of festival as laboratory, a place where artists are free to experiment and collaborate with their peers.
ISSUE Artist-In-Residence Collective w/ Shelley Burgon, Shannon Fields, Ryan Sawyer, Matt Lavelle, Laura Ortman & Jon Natchez
AIR Collective (January-March 2010)
To launch our 4th year of providing multi-month artist residencies, ISSUE will host the first AIR Collective Residency featuring Brooklyn-based musicians:
Jon Natchez
Matt Lavelle
Laura Ortman
Shannon Fields
Ryan Sawyer
Shelley Burgon
These composer/musicians have, for the greater part of the past decade, recorded and performed consistently beguiling and volatile and genre-defying music as members of the critically acclaimed group Stars Like Fleas.
As part of this new collective, these artists will be provided with rehearsal space, curatorial guidance, opportunities to meet with members of our Artistic Advisory, technical/production support, marketing/pr support, and opportunities to create new and site-specific works.
