“When I think of Chloë Sevigny
I feel the code book wobbling on my retina”

Perdu invites artist Ivan Cheng to guest edit a program, which he has titled Clarities. Emerging from a conversation with Perdu editors which moved around opacities and productive misunderstanding, and the role of entertainment within this, he has chosen to invite the acclaimed artists and musicians Cammisa Buerhaus and Geo Wyeth to present solo performances alongside a bridging contribution of his own. Using and discarding markers of character, and moving between worlds constructed of references, each negotiates structure, power, sound and language in their own way, choosing relations to stylistic precedents.

Buerhaus will present The Maze, a confessional-performative psychodrama which begins by invoking Ariadne. First presented in Lisbon’s Spirit Shop in 2018, it follows from with other plays which have previously performed American political scandals, the dynamics involved in sex work, and biblical myths. Based in New York City, Buerhaus is a writer, performer, and composer who also runs record label Wild Flesh Productions, focusing on music made by artists, and is also noted for her performance in The Evening with Richard Maxwell's NYC Players.

Wyeth presents new material from the Muck Studies Dept, an ongoing project which “melds black/American music and history, extractive industry survey, and techniques of investigative journalism to trouble the swampy waters of racial histories and ideas of homeland.” They was in residence at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten from 2015-16, and currently teach at the Dutch Art Institute (DAI) where they focus on embodied tactics of American performance, storytelling, and remembering.

This event description opens with a half line from Tan Lin’s 2002 Eleven Minute Painting, chosen for vulgar affinity to a lineage of inquiries of reading/mediating practices and play within that, as well as spaces of reception and movement between higher/lower culture. It is preceded by citing actress Sevigny’s roles in The Last Days of Disco and Boys Don’t Cry and her noted/mythologised for her approach to style. Clarities (briefly also named Kruder & Dorfmeister after a collaborative project of Lin's and Mary Ellen Carroll) emerges from interest in the 'performing' thing in relation to the so-called ‘audience’ and the fraught space of mediation of self/artist persona.

Please join us for this special event to coincide with Amsterdam Art Weekend.
