Every Friday our editors bring you their personal highlights of the week to come. Tom Jeffreys selects his top three exhibitions.
From Friday 1st April
The Pedestrians @ South London Gallery
Weird. A fusion of live art, installation, sculpture, video and music all jumbled up together to transform the main gallery space at South London Gallery into a kind of wacky film set. Filled with all manner of bits and bobs (cinema flats, mirrors, scaffolding and a treadmill) this basically sounds totally nuts. In a good way, I reckon.
Saturday 2nd April
Dirt Banquet @ Crossness Pumping Station
As part of the Wellcome Collection's Dirt Season maverick sciencey folk Guerilla Science and experimental foodie types Bompas & Parr are holding a dinner in the former Victorian sewage pumping station at Crossness. As well as lots of strange food, there's also something called a 'brown note' at the end of the meal – a sound of such specific frequency that apparently it causes humans to lose control of their bowels. Mmmmm scrumptious bowel movements.
Sunday 4th April
Eat With Art @ Mile End Art Pavilion
As part of the Tower Hamlets Spring Open Exhibition, Latitudinal Cuisine have teamed up with the Open organisers to present a Sunday lunch for 200 guests, all dining together at, apparently, "the longest table you have ever seen". Each guest must each bring a dish (and some drink) that represents their cultural background – I'm be the one with Negronis and fried chicken.
