Touch of Noir Festival

Within its Touch of Noir Festival, the CCR Opderschmelz Dudelange will host a series of events from 25 October–3 November directed by Gast Bouschet and Nadine Hilbert. Spanning ten days, the artists present alchemical bursts of light, sound, and space to enliven and empower the night air, and charge it with dynamic meaning. The opening performance will introduce the world premier of Bouschet and Hilbert’s video Tempestarii, accompanied by live music performance by Stephen O’Malley. This premier will be preceded by Prelude: Breath of Charybdis, a program of videos curated by Amelia Ishmael. Together, the artists will focus and direct our ideas, spirit, and energy on the complex potential and creativity of the darker months to come. Following the performance, the video and sound installation DISintegration will continue until the final night. When the events have run their course, the galleries will turn dark and silent once more. Yet the space around them will be transformed; released.
