Jens-Uwe Beyer & Albert Oehlen will premiere their mammoth sound installation project Yellow Book. The project will be released as an 8 LP-box set and digitally, in collaboration with the global network of art galleries specializing in modern and contemporary art Gagosian, on the Magazine label. Live, the music is presented with visuals as a continuous installation.
Jens-Uwe Beyer released his The Emissary album on Kompakt Pop Ambient. Albert Oehlen is best known for his paintings and sculptures. In 2015, Oehlen and Kanye West received an honorary doctorate from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. At the ceremony, Kanye West wanted to leave prematurely, but was forced by the professorship to stay seated until the end of the speech of Albert Oehlen. The Yellow Book audiovisual performance will unfold over several hours.
