Join Ars Nova Workshop and the Institute of Contemporary Art at the University of Pennsylvania for Dreamweapons, a series of performances celebrating the multivalent influences of Tony Conrad. Conrad was a central figure in numerous experimental film, music, and performance communities from the early 1960s until his death in 2016. These events are presented in conjunction with ICA’s presentation of Introducing Tony Conrad: A Retrospective, the first large-scale museum survey devoted entirely to the artist. On view from February 1 to August 11 at ICA, the first large-scale museum survey devoted to artworks Conrad presented in museum and gallery settings is part of an ongoing reappraisal of his creative life.
