Appleton presents the premiere of Loren Connors’ new work.

On the words of the programer David Maranha: “Unfortunately, we are once again involved in an exhibition that is shrouded in a tragic pall (the previous one was Phill Niblock). Dean Roberts came to Lisbon to propose this piece and we were working on it, but unfortunately he died the day after our dinner in a hotel in Lisbon. We decided to go ahead without him as a way of celebrating Dean’s life and incredible work. Manuel (Mota) and I will be replacing Dean Roberts on the 4-channel broadcast and mix for guitar amps … Stop by if you’re in Lisbon…”
