LONDON.- On Friday 28 June, award-winning musician Celeste will give an exclusive performance at Tate Moderns Late exploring light and film, in celebration of the work of US-based artist Anthony McCall. For one night only, Celeste will take over Tate Moderns South Tank with a unique set performed alongside McCalls dramatic 16mm projector. The performance will reflect on Celestes deep relationship with visual art, immersing audiences in a theatrical experience that blends her soothing vocals with unforgettable light installations.
Every month, Tate Modern Lates offer visitors a free evening of art, music, film and more, where like-minded creatives can come together in the heart of Londons cultural landscape. The programme for Junes event will celebrate Anthony McCalls mesmerising sculptures of light and explore their influence across artistic genres, taking inspiration from the artists new solo exhibition, which will open late into the night.
Visitors will be able to watch McCalls animated lines come to life in the film Five Minute Drawing and hear from a host of voices who have drawn inspiration from his pioneering experimental works. Film production company Somesuch will host a series of conversations exploring the concept of light as a profound artistic tool in Tate Moderns Starr Cinema. Filmmaker and poet Caleb Femi will be joined by directors Duncan Loudon and Tajana Tokyo to discuss immersive film. Those looking to get hands on can join an interactive workshop led by Originary Arts, inviting visitors to create collage from old film strips, while DJ sets programmed by Global Roots will take over the gallerys iconic Turbine Hall. The exciting new Swatch Social space supported by Swatch will be open throughout the night, where visitors can meet artist Elena Ooijman and take part in collective breathing and movement sessions.
Celeste said It is an honour to collaborate with Anthony McCall. Being able to perform my songs in an unconventional way and in such an immersive space, affords me the freedom and fortune of articulating my creative ambitions directly to audiences. Translating raw and human expressions are most impactful up close and in person, which Anthonys work very much reflects. Galleries partly exist to encourage us to congregate and appreciate the value of real-life encounters. Both music and art offer personal and sensory experiences, allowing us to walk away with profound realisations of our own realties and shared existences.
