Upcoming Events

2020 Suzanne Fiol Curatorial Fellow Leyya Tawil presents “Crucial Language / Dirar Kalash & Jamal R. Moore,” her third program in the NOMADIC SIGNALS series. “Crucial Language” places the work of Kalash (Haifa, Palestine) and Moore (Baltimore, US) in conversation through performance and discussion.

DeForrest Brown Jr. (2017 Suzanne Fiol Curatorial Fellow) returns to curate “The Drexciyan Empire,” a collection of audio visual montages by illustrator and futurist A. Qadim Haqq and soundtracked by Dopplereffekt + conversation between Brown & A. Qadim Haqq on the legacy of Drexciya.

ISSUE is pleased to stream a new work from legendary artists and cult punk icons Ana da Silva and Phew. Composed through files exchanged files via email, both artists are familiar with working across distance with a sense of poetry and inquisitiveness, of intuition and invention, of new languages taking shape.

ISSUE is pleased to stream the debut collaborative presentation of New York-based multidisciplinary artist Dreamcrusher & Berlin-based producer and DJ Dis Fig. Often expressing dystopian visions through powerful sound, both artists conjure unique styles of confrontational, revelatory, intense music.

ISSUE streams new collaborative work between London-based pianist and composer Veryan Weston & New York-based experimental saxophonist and composer Ingrid Laubrock—a film “Art and Life in Self-Isolation" reflecting on new working methods.

ISSUE is pleased to stream the debut collaboration between Poughkeepsie-based Joe McPhee and Tokyo-based composer Taku Unami. Despite having never worked together previously, both artists share a similarly liberated approach through their expansive individual discographies and various collaborations.

ISSUE’s inaugural Artist Fund culminates in our online Benefit on October 21st, streaming at 8pm EST. The event features a host of new audiovisual works from Jim O'Rourke, Sarah Hennies + a collaboration between past and present Artists-In-Residence Holland Andrews, Jeremy Toussaint-Baptiste & Will Rawls.

Writer and performer Justin Allen continues his 2020 ISSUE residency with the premiere of Drums. The third performance of the series, Drums will feature drumming by drummer, composer and producer Savannah Harris.
