The Interjection Calendar 003 launch, Auto Italia, London, 15th December 2017, 7pm

With Penny Goring, Laura Morrison and Emily Pope.

“A night of audio installation, readings and performances from Penny Goring, Adam Gallagher, and Laura Morrison, all of whom have contributed to the Interjection Calendar, published by Montez Press. Injustice, the flatulence of global capitalism, personal apocalypse – love, despair, knowledge not wanting to be emotion and the presence of chickens are themes which are threaded through their writings.

The Interjection Calendar is an online project, devised and hosted by Montez Press. Each month an artist or writer is commissioned to produce a new piece of work for release on the Montez Press website. The PDF can be downloaded for free and there are 12 releases per year, in line with the calendar theme. At the end of the year the collection is published, reflecting the current importance of online content media and pushing image/text relationships in this domain through contemporary art writing.”

Read “What did I do to deserve this?” on night.
