Céleste Boursier-Mougenot has a new commission for The Curve at the Barbican. It’s on until the 23 May and admission is free.
Times: Open daily 11am-8pm
Open late every Thu until 10pm
Trained as a musician and composer, French artist Céleste Boursier-Mougenot creates works by drawing on the rhythms of daily life to produce sound in unexpected ways. His installation for The Curve will take the form of a walk-though aviary for a flock of zebra finches, furnished with electric guitars and other instruments and objects. As the birds go about their routine activities, perching on or feeding from the various pieces of equipment, they create a captivating, live soundscape.
