119 Gallery presents
XFest 2013, a festival of improvised music, visuals, movement, and poetry. The format of the festival is simple and challenging: 25 visiting artists and 70 local artists perform. On Friday and Saturday evening there are 10 half-hour sets that feature visiting artists with local artists at 119 Gallery. This year, on Saturday afternoon visiting and local poets read with the musicians at UnchARTed Gallery. On Sunday afternoon local bands will play at Lowell Telecommunications Corp.
Improvisation can lead us out of our habitual responses by opening up alternative experiences - new physical sensations and appetites ... Although this practice begins with attentiveness to corporeal experience it also develops a mental flexibility that can provide an intellectual map with which to chart new pathways for negotiating awkward and difficult crossings." ~ Ann Cooper Albright, Taken By Surprise
Supported by the artists, Lowell Cultural Council and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
