[42 New Briggate]

The Fine Art of Rejection
Rebecca Strain

Rejection Letter Amnesty with music
Friday 18th July 6-8pm Friday 18th July 6-8pm
All are welcome

42 New Briggate Gallery, Leeds, LS1 6NU

The main objective of the event is to publicise, gather material,
amuse the audience and, of course, liberate and empower the
down-trodden masses.

The audience will be invited to hand over material/documents of
rejections, disappointments and personal slights by using
questionnaires available on the night or by donating materials they
bring along with them. The reward for this will be a drink of their
choice.

6pm - 7pm: Improvised Jazz from Rus Pearson (double bass), Sean Foran
(Electric Piano) and possibly Matt Bourne (Cello). Plus music focused
on ruining epic compositional climaxes with unmemorable, pointless and
plain-wrong musical conclusions.

7.30pm - 8pm: Stand-up style public reading/re-enactment of various
rejections, with musical accompaniment facilitated by sculptor Scott
Senogles (all 6 foot 7 of him). Expect the unexpected when we score
applications/rejections on various 'important' criteria.

This is event is part of a summer residency programme in 42 New
Briggate for more info visit www.42newbriggate.co.uk.
