Ben Patterson was a pioneer of the Fluxus movement. After nearly
twenty years of studies in the classical music tradition [Piano,
violin, Double- Bass, theory, composition and conducting] and a
brief four-year career as a professional, classical double bassist,
he became an ‘overnight’ convert to the aesthetic, soon
to be named fluxus to be exact, after his first meeting with John
Cage in Cologne in the summer of 1960.
Since then, Ben Patterson has created a varied body of work in
a series of themed radio programmes curated by Colin Fallows. EQ
brings together a broad variety of artists producing soundworks
within specific frequency bands. The programme of works is divided
into three distinct sections: Bass, Middle and Treble. A fourth
programme brings together a series of mixed- frequency collaborative
works featuring elements from the Bass, Middle and treble programmes.
EQ will form the DRIFT festival contribution to Liverpool Biennial
of Contemporary Art.
This exhibition is held at the Liverpool
School of Art and Design
Throughout the Liverpool Biennial of Contemporary Art Liverpool
School of Art & Design will present a series of exhibitions
