DIZYGOTIC LUMINARI’S: Unearthing the Lite Pool Dadaists Part 1, 2015

An artour (sic) devised by Mike Chavez-Dawson & Co*

Five bells ping in neon as the five chambers at the Grundy Art Gallery shine forth with illuminating propositions for Lucien & Lucy Bright, your art guides for one night only, they will take you on an insightful yet quasi-Dadaist illuminating art-tour of Sensory Systems; highlighting the thematic concerns and connections of the show and re-wiring it into Blackpool’s rich illumination history.

Grundy Art Gallery has commissioned Manchester based artist-curator Mike Chavez-Dawson to develop and deliver a unique theatrical tour of their current exhibition Sensory Systems. The project sees him collaborate with his wife Jane Chavez-Dawson, Coronation Street costume designer Tracey Cliffe, and emerging local actors. Dizygotic Luminari’s proves to be a truly fascinating experience, and something not to be missed.

There will be 2 tours at 3pm and 6pm.

Tickets £4 on the door
