Performance Voyage 7: Protest Songs
An evening with talks, performance and screening.
Performance Voyage 7, the international touring collection of video performances by Galleria MUU (Helsinki, Finland). The theme of this edition is Protest songs. Protest songs are typically associated with movements calling for social change, and this ethos comes across strongly in the selection of works in Performance Voyage 7. The video performances reflect current political and social phenomena widely, and defend personal, environmental, political, and philosophical spaces through art. The collection was curated by Heidi Kilpeläinen (artist), Jaakko Nousiainen (Head of Arts & Culture, Finnish Institute in London) and Timo Soppela (Director, MUU).
