FULLY BOOKED – Music for Dogs and their Owners by Gaspar Cohen
1 Sep 2024, 15:30 - 17:00
We’ve reached maximum capacity for this event. It’s therefore not possible to make reservations to participate anymore. Only those who have registred are allowed to attend the event.
Bring you dog friend to our rooftop terrace to enjoy a special dog friendly concert together. The concert organised at M HKA by the occasion of the exhibition The Lives of Animals is performed for, and with dogs and their human partners. The idea is inspired by Donna J. Haraway’s Companion Species Manifesto and scientific studies on dogs’ inclination towards sound and music.
The music focuses on the unique auditory sensitivities and capabilities of dogs, as well as their perceptual modes and ability to concentrate.
The entrance to the rooftop is via a staircase. It is mandatory to use a collar and leash for all dogs. Please be ready to clean up after your animals too. For more information, check the current museum policy.
Gaspar Cohen is a Brazilian artist and researcher interrogating the capital-colonial complex embedded into human technologies and environments. Their soundworks and performances format as unstable concept-driven systems and situations addressing thresholds of augmentation, ghostly offsets of reality, and socio-spatial politics.
