Two cities. Two sounds. One night at the museum
The nightlife of Amsterdam and London will converge in the Van Gogh Museum during ADE. This evening of art and music is inspired by nocturnal images of London by James McNeill Whistler (1834–1903) and the exhibition Whistler. Dandy and Disruptor in the Van Gogh Museum.
Two musical worlds intertwine, enhancing each other and creating a unique experience, as Amsterdam band Devon Rexi and a to-be-announced artist each play two sets.
Art collective uncloud will use sound and images to transform the museum into a visual nocturnal landscape.
About the artists
Devon Rexi, an Amsterdam-based band with a playful, dub-influenced experimental style all their own, incorporate distorted Farsi vocals, layered drum patterns, unearthly sounds and driving bass lines to create a sound that often seems otherworldly.
