RISING Festival: 24 Hour Rock Show
8 June @ 12:00 pm - 9 June @ 12:00 pm AEST
In 2015, British artist Jeremy Deller selected 24 consecutive hours’ worth of music documentaries in Finland. Obscure gems screened alongside cult classics about the Rolling Stones, Björk and David Bowie, as well as films that went ankle deep into iconic festivals like Wattstax and Glastonbury.
It’s almost 10 years later. World history accelerates and music continues to be a prophecy, showing us a new way to be. So for RISING, Deller is reprising the 24 Hour Rock Show in the Capitol. No Bono on a funky couch, musicologists pontificating or talking heads waxing nostalgic. Just live music, raw and in the moment, beaming out big for a bender’s worth of time.
Drop in, drop out, or settle in for the full 24 hours.
