Wien Modern
Lucilin joins at the biggest festival for contemporary arts music in Austria
With a month of full programming at numerous venues across the city, Wien Modern is the largest festival for contemporary music in Austria and one of the most significant events of its kind worldwide.
On 8 November, United Instruments of Lucilin will take part in the Salon Souterrain: Echos of Numbers.
Salon Souterrain transfers the bourgeois concept of the salon to the reality of the 21st century and anchors it in the city of Vienna. It was created by the artist Elisabeth Bakambamba Tambwe as a reaction to the increasing dynamics of exclusion that have become embedded in our societies in Europe. In its staging, the Salon Souterrain series therefore demonstrates the desire to create shared spaces for mutual exchange and for artistic production. The aim is to open up opportunities for debate, to offer thematic and nomadic encounters in order to discuss social issues in an artistic, open and flexible format.
