The Darktown Cakewalk: Celebrated from the House of FAME is a thirteeen-hour performance that will take place at Chisenhale Gallery, London, on Saturday, the 10th of July, from 10am to 11pm. The artist and musician Linder, in collaboration with musician Stuart McCallum and fashion designer Richard Nicoll, created an epic invocation of glamour and fantastical pageantry in which witch trials and beauty queens, ragtime and Euro Pop merge to enfold the viewer in a secret history of prejudice and dissent. Best known for her photomontages, such as her artwork on the cover of the 1977 Buzzcocks single Orgasm Addict, over the last three decades Linder has consistently questioned roles of gender identity and commodification in society.

From June 24th to September 11th, Jerome Zodo gallery, Milan, will present a selection of artworks by three young artists: Terry Chatkupt, Tigran Khachatryan and Simon Senn. The videographic exhibition, entitled Video Review (73:34 min), is inspired on the continuative disposition of the cinematographic shows and proposes a series of the latest videos realized by the artists in three different show environments. The show experiments with the practices of the tiny multi-hall screening, by wondering about the twofold game holding the essence of the video as an artistic object, its fruition and the related consciousness of the flmic stream.

Andy Coolquitt’s second solo exhibition at Lisa Cooley, We Care About You, includes significant new sculptures that plumb the artist’s alchemical bricolage. The exhibition, visitable until June 27, starts from the Coolquitt’s interest in the dysfunction of the object. His abstract, linear sculptures made of joined pipes, broom handles, discarded lighters, beer bottles, light bulbs, straws, and crayons, are ordered rearrangements of the raw world from which their components are sourced.
