Continuing the season of activity surrounding Morgan Quaintance’s new body of work, his film ‘Available Light’ forms part of the programme for Courtisane festival in Ghent this weekend. It is presented as an expanded screening, with the visual work augmented by a collaborative performance featuring Quaintance alongside Daniel Smith (guitar), Benjin (strings), Millips (samples and electronics) and Pharaoh Russell (drums).

In addition, the duo of Japan-born and London-based filmmaker Chiemi Shimada and British composer Jamie Man will present the performance Celestial Palpitations, a new work for recorded voice, analogue slide projector and electronics. Georgian born and London-based artist and filmmaker Sophio Medoidze will present readings and images from her new monograph Bastard Sun, a book featuring a collection of photographs taken after the civil unrest in Georgia in the 1990s.

Tickets are available for individual events in the festival programme. For those and more details you can visit the Courtisane website; for tickets for the Available Light screening please use the direct link above.
