Don’t expect an umpteenth exhibit, because Morbus Gravis – gabber expert, Ennio Morricone zealot, flashy turqoise Puma tracksuit wearer and headstrong purveyor to Antwerp’s avant-garde elite and under-the-radar-ists, is curating the sound program.
Hand-picked by Morbus Gravis from the crossroads between image and sound: (internationally) established artists such as John Duncan (USA), Sigtryggur Berg Sigmarsson (IS), Thorsten Soltau (DE) and Dominik ‘t Jolle, Antwerp noise scene’s Erwin Van Looveren and upcoming talents Fien Robbe and Stijn Wybouw. Their performances will mangle traditional and linear ideas about concepts like cut-up, sampling, reproduction and collage.
