JOMBA! RED EYE
JOMBA! RED EYE
Durban: 3 September 2010
JOMBA!, which is principally funded by The National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund, joins forces, for the first time, with the innovative and cutting-edge concept of RED EYE at the Durban Art Gallery. Renowned for showcasing performance art, fashion, dance, music and everything in between, this special JOMBA! edition of RED EYE promises to dazzle audiences. Featuring almost a hundred performers and based around the notion of "The Body Politic", artists from all genres of performance and art making have been commissioned and invited to generate work that explores both the heightened body political but also the more personal and intimate body.
Choreographers, dancers, fashion designers, DJs, fine artists, tattoo artists, performance-based artists, bands and one or two rather edgy individuals all come together in the unique vision of curator David Gouldie who has promised audiences a night of site specific interactive performances that they will never forget.
Audiences will arrive to a blocked off Smith Street with the "I heart market"
