First Thursdays x Mono

Tetsuya Umeda & Ross Manning

7 September 2017
6–9:30pm

  • Event Cost:
    Free

Based in Osaka, Japan, Tetsuya Umeda’s work focuses on the creation of profoundly dynamic environments, through the combination of architectural structures, sound and light, and considers their impacts on human behaviour. His works, which are commonly site-specific and temporal, utilise found domestic objects, transforming these varied elements from their daily familiarity into a transcendent spectacle of the unexpected.

This event takes place in Ross Manning’s exhibition where the artist will perform his own instruments against a backdrop of his largest sound sculpture to date.

The bar will be open from 6pm, with performances starting at 7pm.

This is a free event with all welcome. Please let us know you can attend via Eventbrite here.

Mono is the IMA’s longstanding program of experimental sound curated by Lawrence English of Room40. Experience the expansive world of sonic experimentation and boundary-pushing performance in Brisbane/Meanjin through an integration of diverse sound materials and practices.

Dissonant Rhythms

05 Aug–28 Oct 2017

The Institute of Modern Art acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land upon which the IMA now stands, the Jagera, Yuggera, Yugarapul, and Turrbal people. We offer our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the first artists of this country. In the spirit of allyship, the IMA will continue to work with First Nations people to celebrate, support, and present their immense past, present, and future contribution to artistic practice and cultural expression.
