After his performance at Guggenheim New York, Louvre Paris and Whitechapel London, Hassan Khan will present for the first time in Florence his famous project Superstructure 2017, a concert program with rotating selections from his repertoire- this time ranging from slow and suspenseful listening to subtle dancing. The pieces merge compositions and recordings done in the studio- from classical arabic music to programmed Gamelan with live work on a feedbacking mixer and an array of processors and filters.
The performance will be followed by a talk, where the artist will speak about his artistic practice in which sound, images and performance are closely linked, as well as the screenings of Jewel (2010, 6’30”), Muslimgauze R.I.P. (2010, 8’07”), and Blind Ambition (2012, 45′).
