Season Finale: Ragnar Kjartansson and The National at MoMA PS1

This Sunday, May 5, MoMA PS1 presents the last of its Sunday Sessions in the VW Dome. From 12:00 to 6:00 PM, the museum will screen the durational performance, A Lot of Sorrow by Icelandic artist Ragnar Kjartansson. For the original work, Kjartansson sought out US rock band The National to perform their song, Sorrow, repeatedly in a six-hour live loop. By stretching a single pop song into a day-long tour de force the artist continues his explorations into the potential of repetitive performance to produce sculptural presence within sound. Featured image, of Kjartansson performing "The Night—Eroticism, Folköl and Melancholia" (2010) at Moderna Museet, Stockholm, is reproduced from JRP|Ringier's To Music.
