The London Institute of Contemporary Arts has announced its programme for June through to December.
The upcoming season at the ICA, which is the second under Bengal Ünsal’s direction, kicks off tomorrow (21 June) with a performance from R&B artist Tora-i followed by a night on the 23 June featuring Chicago footwork DJ Jana Rush, Berlin-based experimental club producer, sound designer and DJ Zoë Mc Pherson and Scorpio Red co-founder Ans M.
Elsewhere on the programme, Rainy Miller and Emma DJ are teaming up for a collaborative performance, and saxophonist Bendik Giske – who recently released his self-titled third album – will play a headline show on 6 October. Further into autumn, Art School Girlfriend will perform in November following her sophomore release Soft Landing whilst electric harpist Kety Fusco and New York’s Will Butler & Sister Squares are also confirmed for shows that same month.
On the late-night tip, ICA’s monthly minus one series will see LA collective EDZ (Eternal Dragonz) invite Flora Yin Wong, Organ Tapes, Tzekin and x/o in August. Other nights will be curated by hyperlocal – an annual festival and event series split between Buenos Aires and London – as well as London-based event Swagchella. There will also be an evening presented by Tutto Questo Sentire, a collective founded by experimental opera singer Olivia Salvadori, composer and cellist Sandro Mussida, and video and sound artist Rebecca Salvadori.
The programme also includes exhibitions of Moki Cherry and Gray Wielebinski’s work, new live commissions from Eve Stainton and Jose Funnell, film screenings, talks and workshops. Head to the ICA’s website for the full programme and tickets.
