Making Nothing Happen

Writer collective information as material (iam) begin their residency at the Whitechapel Gallery on the 28th of April, marked by a screening of Making Nothing Happen by Simon Morris.

Making Nothing Happen introduces the work of 2010 Northern Art Prize winner Pavel Buchler. Combining audio documentation, installation photography, text, interview and commentary it pays tribute to Buchler’s humourous conceptual style, with a framing of his own reframing of Beckett, Kafka, Cage and Warhol. The screening will be followed by a discussion between Simon Morris and the artist. Prints of Brooklyn based Lucia della Paolera’s poster poem Information Manual will also be available on the night.

Established in 2002 iam explore conceptualist approaches to writing and performative approaches to reading. They plan to create a space for poetic and critical engagement with ‘undesigning’, anti-expressionism and cultural piracy.

Tickets are priced at £6 (including a complimentary drink and A1 lithographic print).
