We are pleased to host a new collaborative project initiated by Jeremiah Day. The gallery welcomes a group of five collaborators for a weekend with two different programs, including performance, screening and discussion, taking as its point of departure the Italian social and political movement “NoTav.” The collaborators are Simone Evangelisti, Giulia Galli, Teresa Odasso, and Davide Tidoni
“NoTAV” is the catch-all slogan for a loose Italian social and political movement that has at its center stopping the huge destruction/construction project of a new high speed train line (TAV) between Turin and Lyon.
In this project Jeremiah Day supports others (and vice-versa) into a collaborative performance-memory-reportage. Day has been offering improvisational performance workshops for the last year, and a core group from those workshops joins in Amsterdam along with Davide Tidoni, an Italian sound and visual artist based in Brussels who has worked intensively documenting and making art about the songs and stories of NoTAV.
Gathering in the gallery for a short working residency, the group invites the public to two evenings of live art, almost all improvised. The program offers the basis for sharing, gathering and discussing our own struggles, those taking place in the Susa Valley, and our own status in this unimaginable present.
