Gavin Russom presents Bunkerweltanschauung (Bunker ideology), featuring Labanna Babalon, Alberto Cortes, Raul De Nieves, Marie Karlberg, Liz Larsen, Stanley Love, Micki Pellerano, and Viva Ruiz
12:00–6:00 p.m. · VW Dome

Bunkerweltanschauung (Bunker ideology) is an ongoing installation and event series curated and designed by artist, music producer and DJ Gavin Russom. The event is based on a fantasy scenario in which the world has become inhospitable and a group of radicals have taken refuge inside an abandoned bunker to gestate a new vision of human culture. The Bunker, an architectural space originally created to protect a political elite from a war that they created, becomes womb, grave, temple, labyrinth, cocoon, nightclub; a liminal zone that creates unique conditions for metamorphosis. Featured artists will include Labanna Babalon, Alberto Cortes, Raul De Nieves, Marie Karlberg, Liz Larsen, Stanley Love, Micki Pellerano, and Viva Ruiz as well as Russom himself. The participants work in a variety of disciplines including nightlife, video technology, dance, film and fashion.

Easter Eggomania!
3:00 p.m. · Duplex

Bring your children to enjoy and participate in an artist-led Easter Egg workshop within the installation CONFETTISYSTEM: 100 Arrangements. Icelandic artist Hrafnhildur Arnardottir aka Shoplifter hosts an afternoon of creativity and springtime fun culminating in an Easter Egg hunt in the courtyard.

Sunday Sessions is a weekly presentation of performance, moving images, dance, music, and discursive programs. Its mission is to embrace live arts as an integral aspect of contemporary practice and ask how art forms, which unfold in the here and now, produce specific ways of thinking and useful means to engage with the broader world. Every Sunday different artists, curators, thinkers and a range of other cultural agents are invited to share their latest projects and ideas with the MoMA PS1 audience.

Sunday Sessions is made possible by MoMA’s Wallis Annenberg Fund for Innovation in Contemporary Art through the Annenberg Foundation.

The VW Dome at MoMA PS1 is made possible by a partnership with Volkswagen of America.
