Exquisite Corpse Events
Walk Around Tour
Saturday 17th October, 2pm – 3pm
Exquisite Corpse curator Georgie Thompson will lead a tour of the exhibition of work from IMMA’s extensive collection
Warm Moving Bodies
Thursday 5th November 7pm – 10pm
Witness the results of three games of Exquisite Corpse adapted for sound, moving image and drawing and played out by a host of local artists. For one night original artwork created using the principles of Exquisite Corpse will be presented throughout the gallery with opportunities for visitors to interact and create throughout the evening. Organised by Ryan Darragh (Oscillations Festival) this evening promises to be full of the unexpected artistic collisions and chaotic harmonies you can expect from a game where unpredictability is the main event.
The Warm Moving Bodies project will take place over the course of the exhibition. If you would like to participate or for more information, please contact Ryan Darragh via ryan@oscillationsfestival.com
