About this Event
April 4 from 6-10pm, e.g. King’s ‘Mixed Feelings’, a psychoanalytically themed concept bar slash artwork, will set the stage for a salon style gathering across three nights at ALICE BLACK, London. Sipping from the history and myth of the artist’ bar, ‘Mixed Feelings’ brings with it a series of nightly off-grid happenings, performances, and ad-hoc programming. A research-based artwork, itself a lab of in-person exchange, ‘Mixed Feelings’ draws on the figure of the bartender-cum-therapist in popular culture. Join us in an ambivalent space between the social and the therapeutic. Fuelling festivities: Live jam, performance, short films, poetry and poker! Sculptures from George Richardson and David Shamie, and works on paper from Chris Owen will further transform the exhibition space to the sultriest of speakeasies.
NIGHT ONE: ENCORE! ENCORE!
Reprieving the inimitable, friends of ‘Mixed Feelings’ assemble for a live acoustic and amplified jam.
Feat. Faissal El-Malak | Christian Kingo | Eden McDowell | Harmeet Rahal
