Aki Sasamoto's Strange Attractors and Lars Jan live. Part of the program related to 2010 Whitney Biennial
Aki Sasamoto's contribution to 2010, Strange Attractors, consists of the careful arrangement of sculpturally altered found objects and insistent repetitions of performances that alter and add to the feelings of the installation; the objects themselves provide guidance for the artist's structured improvisation. Sasamoto demonstrates and develops a kaleidoscopic worldview out of deeply personal episodes and a hypothetical mapping of the universe. Lars Jan is a true multidisciplinary artist. For this performance, the Los Angeles-based director, designer, writer, and media artist departs from elaborate multimedia setups to delve deep into the constructs of artist Martin Kersels's world, energizing and animating his sculpture 5 Songs in an unusual, yet organic way.
