Composer and performer Neil Luck uses sound, music, text and gesture in this performance, taking inspiration from Modern Art Oxford’s archive.
Urr is an allegorical narrative irresponsibly extrapolated from a series of correspondences between Modern Art Oxford and the artist Saburo Murakami during the 1986 show Reconstructions. Articulated through text, sound and gesture, Murakami’s ‘Box’ finds itself in a pataphysical orbit around memory, faulty simulacra, nostalgic reminisces and unsteady futures.
This performance took place at the gallery on 1 September 2016.
