Another Music Mohammed Ali Fadlabi Luke Fowler Lemi Ghariokwu Linder Sterling
Another Music is a group show of work by artists whose practice is directly concerned with the complex relationship between image production, music and politics. Mohammed Ali Fadlabi, a painter based in Oslo now making new work for Kunsthall Oslo, is perhaps best known for the controversial cover image of the Gatas Parlament record Apocalypso, showing a Christ-like figure tied to the Norwegian flag. Luke Fowler's documentaries question the classical concepts of musicianship and composition, and relate them to political ideologies, particularly in his case study of Cornelius Cardew's Scratch Orchestra. Lemi Ghariokwu's painting was brought to world attention during his long collaboration with Fela Kuti, and his focus remains on an agitational relationship to the many unsolved questions of the third-world vs the first-world. Linder Sterling is a Manchester-based artist and musician whose work, informed by feminist ideas and Dadaist visual strategies, made a key contribution to the politics of the punk aesthetic, and continues to test the boundaries of mainstream taste in the interests of a future erotic egalitarianism.

Alongside his participation in 'Another Music', Kunsthall Oslo has invited Mohammed Ali Fadlabi to curate a project outside the gallery space. 'The Sacred Fear' is an exhibition distributed around the city, with works on show in a bar, a shop, a club, an office, a gallery and an art academy. Fadlabi writes 'I never thought I was a curator. I am not even sure I am an artist yet. And here comes a real institution asking me to curate a show. Well, for some reason I found myself doing it anyway. Probably because of my African upbringing. We were taught to listen and respect those who knew better. Ladies and gentlemen, this is a very personal show. I have chosen locations I am familiar with in Oslo and invited friends to show their art.'
