ICA is closed from the 30 May – 3 June inclusive.
Martyrology is a series of public events curated by artist Maria Lissoni, initiated by an editorial project, artists’ book and supported by the work of fellow creative practitioners Chiara Petru and Sophie Barrett-Pouleau.
Articulated into three iterations, the programme delves into the inquisitive power of independent publishing, fine art, sonic exploration and videography. A triptych of public interactions mapping parallels between religious paintings of martyrdom and horror cinema, investigating the relationship between iconography and body politics through multiple mediums.
This event celebrates the launch of the book Martyrology, where the artist edition will be showcased alongside a limited edition of prints, available for sale. Accompanied by an installation, a piece of moving image and a live set by DJ Baklava.
