Listening Session: Mike Kelley’s Music
1:00 PM · Print Shop
Music has played a central role in Mike Kelley's work throughout his career, from the Detroit-based noise band, Destroy All Monsters, founded while he was an undergraduate, through to his most recent large-scale multimedia productions. Artist and publisher James Hoff (Primary Information) and art historian Branden W. Joseph (Columbia University) discuss and play selections (including unreleased material) from Kelley's musical oeuvre.

4:00 PM · VW Dome
Former members of the industrial music pioneers, Throbbing Gristle, Chris Carter and Cosey Fanni Tutti’s music overtime left an indelible mark on Kelley and his music with Destroy All Monsters. This is Carter Tutti’s first US presentation of Desertshore / The Final Report LP (2012).
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 organized by Jenny Schlenzka, Associate Curator with Mike Skinner, Producer, and Alex Sloane, Live Programming Coordinator.
Sunday Sessions and the VW Dome at MoMA PS1 are made possible by a partnership with Volkswagen of America.
