ANNE IMHOF, FAUST – Record Release and Performance

MUSEUM MMK 5 December 2019 with Billy Bultheel, Eliza Douglas, and Anne Imhof Deriving from the performance and exhibition—staged by Anne Imhof at the 57th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia—the album Faust is part documentation and part elaboration, the sonic capture and extrapolation of the gestures, intensities, and durations of the live event. Serving as the dramatic backbone of the several-hour long performance at the 2017 German Pavilion, the soundtrack was a product of the collective and its individuals, written by Anne Imhof and her collaborators Billy Bultheel, Eliza Douglas, and Franziska Aigner.
