Basement Performances: Okkyung Lee and Andrew Lampert

Fridays and Saturdays in late January and early February, The Drawing Center will present "Basement Performances" curated by renowned composer and performer John Zorn. The six cutting edge multi-media performances in our Lab will bring together improvised music with expanded cinema and feature some of Downtown New York's most adventurous musicians and visual artists.
