EXHIBITION Karin Kihlberg & Reuben Henry
Friday, August 24, 2007 to Sunday, September 30, 2007
Castlefield Gallery presents Karin Kihlberg & Reuben Henry’s first collaborative solo show in the UK. The exhibition will include work produced between 2003 and 2007 mainly from the artists joint practice and also a new piece that will be filmed as part of a live performance in the gallery space.
This new piece characterises much of the way that Kihlberg and Henry work. The performances and processes are developed with built-in mechanisms for recording the event and re-presenting it at a later date. The re-presentation of their work is a central thread which runs through much of the work in the show, and several pieces will be exhibited for the first time in this format.

EVENT Ben Frost at the greenroom
Friday, June 29, 2007 (21:00 - 22:30)
To The Left of the Rising Sun presents critically acclaimed Icelandic based artist and composer Ben Frost who performs work from his latest album at the greenroom. Influenced by the stark natural environment of his new home country and the contrasting abysmal winter darkness and endless summer light, Frost’s soundscape references the Baroque and the sublime and carries its audience into unexplored territories.
Frost has produced work extensively in various forms including installation, work for film and dance and has released several widely acclaimed albums such Steel Wound in 2003, the opus School of Emotional Engineering in 2005 and most recently Theory of Machines in 2006.
£5/£3 (conc.) Bookings tel: greenroom on 0161 615 0500 or click on Ben's image to Manchester International Festival's website.
