HAPPY HOUR ! is inspired by weather reports, swinging between normality and crisis mode in the summer of 2019, a summer of rising temperatures, burning Tundra, deforestation and rapidly melting Greenland ice. The empty space of the Holden Gallery will provide the backdrop to a dance session, provocations and interruptions. In addition to the visuals and the sound, we are asking some vexed questions around the problems of making art in times of impending disasters and what it means to us socially, ecologically and environmentally. Interruptions is a series of interdisciplinary performances and events that intersects the Holden Gallery’s annual programme of exhibitions.
