NIGHT EMBASSY presents: AfterDark Society
Event Information
About this Event
Event description
Six countries, six artists, and one night only: Join us for the global launch of the AfterDark Society at the NIGHT EMBASSY.
Since its launch in September, our custom-build modular music and art space in the heart of Kreuzberg has been the site of provocative club nights, thoughtful panels, and innovative new directions for Berlin’s club culture. For the AfterDark Society, we set our sights beyond our borders: We’ve invited six artists to join us on a journey from Wolfenbüttel–Jägermeister’s birthplace to–Berlin, Europe’s capital of creativity..
The artists represent an eclectic mix of mediums and experiences, including London’s Sian Anderson, Tokyo’s TxBone, St Petersburg’s Bumble Beezy, Mexico City’s Billy Mendrix, Berlin’s LaMia, and New York’s KidSuper. They returned home to create new work inspired by their journeys; on 30 November, the artists will reconvene once more at the NIGHT EMBASSY: Join us for a night of art and music, and stick around meet the artists yourself.
The evening will feature electric live performances by TXBone (Tokyo) and Bumbly Breezy (St. Petersburg), as well as a fresh DJ set from Billy Mendrix (Mexico City), and don’t miss an exhibition with new visual pieces by Sian Anderson (London), KidSuper (New York City), and LaMia (Berlin).
Come early, and stay late: This event will run concurrently with the closing party for Sweetest Taboo.
