Society for Contemporary Art says…

Ei Arakawa organizes a new live performance, Iwaki Odori (Sunbathe Museum), for the Society for Contemporary Art. Tomoo Arakawa, Kerstin Brästch, Jeffrey Rosen, and Sergei Tcherepnin join the performance inspired by the 2011 nuclear crisis and a tanning salon business owned by Tomoo Arakawa in Iwaki, Fukushima, Japan. The performance includes piano arrangements of a local song from Iwaki, Fukushima combined with festive aspects of the upcoming Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis, Indiana. A "dress" designed by Nhu Duong is available for the audience to wear during the performance.
