Show Thirteen: “Solace”

Thursday, November 2nd , 2023 Dusk - 9:30 pm Jay Street and Water Street

The audiovisual compilation 'Solace' was released May 1st by the global community of musicians and visual artists based in NYC, which was the epicenter of Covid-19 in the United States.

This compilation features unreleased audiovisual art works, live recordings, and compositions of 11 projects contributed by 14 artists who are from all over the world that came together to support The International Rescue Committee in its fight against Covid-19. 100% of the proceeds were donated to The IRC.

This project is entitled 'Solace ' meaning consolation in a time of deep distress. 'Solace' is the reflection of what music and visual art has meant to these artists while being in isolation and social distancing during the pandemic. 'Solace' symbolizes the hope for a renewed creativity and inventiveness in all of us during this time of crisis.

Curated by Testu Collective + ÉMU, this compilation was born out of the need to express the immensity of the crisis and the profound loss that we all feel, but find hard to articulate into words. Music and art have been our solace. We hope that you might escape for just a bit through our sonic and visual pieces.

Featured Artists: Maria Takeuchi, Sarah Pak, Mike Romeo, Morena Sarzo, Paloma Kop, Toru Izumida, Kiyonori Sudo, Alec Fellman + xuzi, Gabriel Mester, Fernando Molina, Serena Stucke + Dan Tesene
