    Performance will be broadcast throughout the museum.

    The Fabric Workshop and Museum (FWM) premieres a special live performance and multi-floor exhibition opening for Chicago-based artist Nick Cave. As a current FWM artist-in-residence, Cave worked in collaboration with FWM studio staff and apprentices to debut Architectural Forest (2011), an ambitious, floor-to-ceiling installation of ornamented bamboo that also serves as a mystical setting, in which Cave’s December 16th performance at FWM takes place. Footage of this multisensory performance—which incorporates dance, music, and ambient sounds from the installation itself—will be on view during the exhibition run.
