Poetry reading and electronics

Tasos Sagris, WhoDoes, Ποίηση, σύγχρονη ποίηση, Τάσος Σαγρής

Portikus Frankfurt – Tasos Sagris & Whodoes, Live Poetry Performance and Electronics

PORTIKUS is pleased to announce the exhibition Georgia Sagri and I.

Portikus is an institution for contemporary art in Frankfurt am Main. Since its foundation in 1987 and as a fundamental element of the renowned art academy Städelschule, Portikus is dedicated to exhibit, publish and discuss young and emerging as well as established artists and their work.

Georgia Sagri and I is a playlist, a perspective on retrospective and an exhibition of exhibiting – an institution without confines.

For the first time, sculptures, video works and performances from the last ten years of Georgia Sagri’s multidisciplinary oeuvre come together. Their display is treated as a score that decides on tempo, duration, entry and exit. Screenscapes, landscapes, soundscapes are all part of it, as are performances, concerts, workshops and their organizing modes.

The exhibition began during the conversation between artist and curator on the Georgia Sagri Georgia Sagri exhibition at Kunstverein Braunschweig, where the symmetry of the architecture allowed the works to be accommodated and exist at ease in their module state. Module conveys the idea of the conceived possibilities of an object’s multiple meanings in space and time’s (gravity and temperature) impact. In rejecting the singular by the act of doubling, Sagri also rejects the hierarchies between object and subject with their spatial determinations. The white cube of Portikus however is in an ambiguous state, it can be many and is one. Its history and structure makes it an exhibition space per se, suspending other determinations. Georgia Sagri and I allows cracks and syncopations on this premises through the means of her works’ thought experiments.

In this continuum, friends, musicians, her brother poet and activist, and writers are some of the references of the artist’s home town Athens who bring more affects in the exhibition. Georgia Sagri’s performances are endurance in loop, where repetitions give space and time for contemplation. Hence, the exhibition is a tool for different bodies to use Portikus as a concert hall, an exhibition space, a memory bank and an art school.

WHODOES, was born in Greece-Athens in 1981. Whodoes’ music is a combination of ambient / soundtrack music, post rock, shoe-gaze, cinematographic electronica and ethnic soundscapes. His poetic sound works like a bridge for experiential experiences of the past to the present and the future, while at the same time sensitively approaching the functions of life in direct connection with urban environments and secret nature. Guitarist – a composer, a true fan of experimentation, research and improvisation, sharpening his imagination using foreign bodies on the guitar such as effects, violin-bow,
metal slide, e-bow, wood (turning the electric guitar in a Mediterranean traditional “Santuri” instrument), combined with the use of music technology, turntables, loops and programming creating a special sound with which he composes. With his own musical identity and style, he presents alone or together with poet Tasos Sagris a unique audiovisual spectacle on stage.The music of Whodoes has been hosted in music collections of his genre, while the passion for the combination of sound and visual art has compelled him to compose music for musical theater performances. Recently he created his third personal musical album, “HOURS”, which includes eight instrumental compositions while he works with Tasos Sagris for the conclusion of the album “Phenomenology of the Guillotine”. In the past, he has created two other albums, “EMPIRICO” and “DOLPHINS IN THE SKY”
