Finissage performance at Rosa Barba’s In a Perpetual Now at Neue Nationalgalerie, 2021-2022 Rosa Barba
In January 2022, a finissage was held for Rosa Barba’s exhibition In a Perpetual Now at Neue Nationalgalerie. On this occasion, drummer Chad Taylor was joined by Rosa Barba on cello to perform Hear, There Where the Echoes Are, 2016, a piece that brings an increasingly sculptural and performative dimension to the exhibition with light beams echoing the drum beat in a choreography that seems to disassemble the cinematic device and dissolve the image. As the title suggests, the image appeared as the instant intersection of the installation, the architecture, and bodies passing through.
