NEW ORDER + LIAM GILLICK
OGR Torino with Manchester International Festival (MIF) presented ∑(No,12k,Lg,18Ogr) New Order + Liam Gillick: So it goes..
This remarkable project, seen at MIF during summer 2017, had its Italian premiere at OGR on 5th May 2018.
New Order took over OGR for a special show, created in collaboration with two close associates: visual artist Liam Gillick, who had previously presented solo exhibitions at venues such as Tate Britain and MoMA in New York, and who has co-curated the inaugural exhibition of OGR, Like a Moth to a Flame, and composer-arranger Joe Duddell.
For New Order + Liam Gillick: So it goes.., the group deconstructed, rethought and rebuilt a wealth of material from throughout their career: familiar and obscure, old and new. To perform it live, they were joined by a 12-strong synthesizer ensemble. Inspired by this reinvention of the band’s catalog, Liam Gillick transformed OGR into an immersive environment, creating a stage set that reacted dynamically to the music.
