Designed and composed like paintings, Adrien Vescovi's canvases - old sheets and other fabric scraps - are dyed in natural pigment concoctions and then hung in spaces. Thus interacting with their environment, sometimes in the open air, where they are impregnated by the elements and the weather, sometimes indoors, where the canvases and their arrangement respond to the architecture of the place.

Casino LuxembourgReading for children: "Waking the Mountain"17H30 (EN) | 18h30 (LU) | 20H00 (FR), 15 min.
Nature is suffering, and so is Zura’s best feline friend Milo. Soon, Zura knows she’ll have to turn her anger into action if she wants to save both. Waking the Mountain is a relevant and hopeful story about friendship and working together towards a better future and a healthier planet. Lisa Junius’s soft and colored illustrations lead the reader through this wondrous world and make the text, written by Marina Fonseca, come to life.

Casino LuxembourgCoup de cœur with Jackie Moontan (Spoken Word Performance)19H00 & 00H00 (EN)
Jackie Moontan is a man from the moon – or so he says. He is known for his fondness for kitsch and for donning satin shirts and brightly coloured suits on stage. His shows are full of surprises and unpredictable performances. Sometimes he goes into a trance like an evangelist and howls, delighting his audiences with a dance interlude or falling off the stage – all of which can happen at the same time. When Moontan enters the room, human conventions go out the window. But he is also a sharp observer, a fabulous pop singer and a brilliant verbal acrobat whose part-absurd, part-moving stories never fail to mesmerise the public.

Casino LuxembourgPUCK SCHOT – Breath/Fist21H00 (in the exhibition "Sound without Music")
For the concept Sound Without Music Schot will compose an audioperformance centered around breathing. Combining audio-recordings and loops of sounds derived from her mouth with distortion and modulation, Schot confronts the audience with the sensation silence yet suffocation, performing texts reminiscent of silent memories and hauntologies of femme sexuality. Playing with the intensity of these elements, synthesizers and drum machines will set the tone for building a pressure room. The performance will take place in the middle of a stage of withering flowers and a large live-projection close-up of her mouth projected on the wall/screen behind.
Working as a visual artist and writer, Puck Schot once felt the need to express a more masculine voice within her poetry. Curious towards electronic music, she started making experiments around 2019 with noise, poetry on violence and distorted drum samples as Acidic Male. In that same year she started collaborating with RJM Vanderheyden as 'Vot'ress' as well, combining harsh noise with nature sounds and Shakespearean texts. Since then, she has a high interest in industrial sounds, hypnotic drum patterns and experimental vocals. Having her performer name as a revenge title, she searches to “other” herself into the position of a manipulator, perpetrating the listener through the duality of softness and harshness within violent sounds and poetry. Yet, typically what is left is merely a penetration of herself as the subject, exposing her confessions, memories and hauntologies. She is simply ripping in two, in front of an audience.

Casino LuxembourgListening Session by Lagerkultur: Acidic Male (Dj Set)22H30
Acidic Male has an interest in industrial sounds, hypnotic drum patterns and experimental vocals. Having her performer name as a revenge title, she searches to “other” herself into the position of a poetic perpetrator. Her sounds have been described as “elegant industrial”, yet in her selections she attempts to showcase her love for genre-wide experimentalism.
-
Casino LuxembourgSensu, Part II (Dj Set)23H30
Sensu will play a live set focused on some of the more experimental tendencies in his work. Minimalism and extreme repetition, combined with an industrial music-like stance define his sounds and musical structures, as do a set of gentle and less than gentle paradoxical musical elements.
