Published by Künstlerhaus Bremen and Nadja Quante, ‘Call and Response’ is an artist record conceived following the exhibition la musique de la chambre, which took place at Künstlerhaus Bremen from February to April 2022. It extends the exhibition, which placed a focus on the use of sound in Robert's work. How can Robert's performances be approached via sound and how can the auditory level be used as an access to the performances beyond photo documentation and reenactment?
‘Call and Response’ brings together eleven sound pieces created in the context of Jimmy Robert's performances and exhibitions. They were produced in collaboration with sound artist and DJ Ain Bailey, choreographer Jane Ellison, artists Rosa Barba and Emma Hedditch, among others. The record is complemented by a booklet with an introduction by curator Nadja Quante and an essay by Mason Leaver-Yap.
