In participation of Performa ’11, the most important performance biennial in NY, White Box will present ‘Film Noir Machine’ a concert and video performance by Oan Kim. It is a 30-minute audio-visual concert performance featuring original music and video by the artist.
The viewer will be immersed in a unique and vibrant experience for the senses, through a vivid collage of colorized old movies, accompanied with music that uniquely combines sixties jazz a la Miles Davis with the raw energy and attitude of rock music.
Through this presentation, the artist seeks to create a loose but palpable narrative exacerbating senses and emotions of fear, anger, ecstasy, and melancholy. Through the confusion of a bad dream unfolds an intense contemplation of memories and time.
