A Talk In The Park With Jan Anderzen
Finnish experimental musician Jan Anderzen (often known as Kemialliset Ystavat or Tomutonttu) has been a driving force in the Finnish experimental music scene over the last decade and a half; his influence is far reaching — even in Brooklyn– with the likes of Matt Mondanile (Ducktails/Real Estate) and Daniel Lopatin (Oneohtrix Point Never) among former collaborators. Known for his ability to collaborate and orchestrate diverse musical happenings, he has recently taken up residency at Issue Project Room where he will perform a special performance (audio and visual) with a few American collaborators on this Saturday.
While I’m sure many of you might like to know Jan’s philosophy on certain music aesthetics, we thought it might be more interesting, instead, to discuss the work of an obscure Russian/Finnish/American painter Nicholas Roerich‘s paintings after a trip to his museum in the Upper Westside.
