In addition to the exhibition by Turner Prize nominated artist Marvin Gaye Chetwynd open at the Nottingham Contemporary until 23rd Mar 2014, there will be a major new performance by the artist entitled The Green Room on Friday 7 February from 7.30pm to 11pm. Specially commissioned by Nottingham Contemporary, the performance draws partly on the artist’s research in the city.

Her performances are joyful and anarchic. Some of the scenes for The Green Room have been filmed in Nottingham’s extensive cave system and will feature a debt counsellor, the temple from the film Cat Woman, cat puppets and Chewbacca’s nuclear family from the Star Wars Holiday Special.

There are two bookable sessions during the evening. Audiences are welcome to drop in and out of the performance for late opening of the Galleries and special offers in the Cafe.Bar.

The event will also be broadcast live online.
