Abramović, Anderson, and Anger at Meltdown

Acclaimed neo-cabaret singer Antony is curating this year’s Meltdown festival—a mix of music, Performance Art, film, and more—in London, and he’s compiled quite a roster.

In addition to the musicians, he’s convinced Marina Abramović to deliver a rare lecture! We’re pretty exited about this; to tide us over, we’ve been watching videos of Abramović’s recent, triumphant MoMA show.

Also at this year’s Meltdown is Laurie Anderson (who herself curated the festival in 1997), and the films of Kenneth Anger.
