Schimpfluch Downing Down Under

Footscray Audio-Visual Social Club (FAV-SC) is honoured to host the Melbourne artist presentation of Schimpfluch Gruppe (Dave Philips and Rudolf Eb.Er) during their tour of Australia and New Zealand. An uncompromising experimental performance group that had it’s genesis in Switzerland in the mid-eighties, Schimpfluch Gruppe are exponents of “psycho-physical tests and trainings”, a methodology of extreme physicality in audio/sonic art, actionism, bruitism, performance, musique concrète, painting and installation-work. Pushing the body to its limits in a live context, Schimpfluch Gruppe at Footscray Arts will present a chronology of their performances and experiments. Rudolf and Dave will be presenting video footage rarely seen outside of Europe, a unique opportunity to gain insights into the origins, motivation and desires of Switzerland’s influential Schimpfluch Gruppe.
