Interested in social and artistic transformation, Althamer makes work that reimagines reality in an attempt to subtly shift conventional perceptions\u2014social, political, psychological. Althamer\u2019s solo exhibitions include Lentos Museum in Linz (2020); Helsinki Art Museum, Helsinki (2019); New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York (2014); Secession, Vienna (2009); Fondazione Nicola Trussardi, Milan (2007); Mus\u00e9e National d\u2019Art Moderne, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris (2006), and Westf\u00e4lischer Kunstverein, Munster, Germany (2002). Group exhibitions include the Venice Biennale: Il Palazzo Enciclopedico\/The Encyclopedic Palace (2013); Gwangju Biennial, South Korea: Mainbo\u201310,000 Lives (2010); Skulptur Projekte M\u00fcnster (2007); Berlin Biennial: Von M\u00e4usen und Menschen\/Of Mice and Men (2006), and the Istanbul Biennial (2005). In 2004 he won the Vincent Award, hosted by the Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht, Netherlands. He lives and works in Warsaw.

Using the saxophone and drum duo as a starting point, their work seeks to probe and prod the history and limitations of the tradition of the free jazz duo by interjecting elements of performance, silence, space, and density. Their collaborative work serves as an aspirational outlet for their shared interests in Zen meditation, performance art, pranks, and as a critique of performative acts of catharsis. They have toured the US and Europe extensively, having performed at Roulette, Issue Project Room, Br\u00f6tz, Watermill Center, Oberlin, Bard, and many other venues large and small. In addition to their work as a duo, they often collaborate with Ben Gerstein, Jacob Wick, Joanna Mattrey, Brandon Lopez, Nate Wooley, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All attendees must be fully vaccinated, and present proof of vaccination during check-in.<\/strong>&nbsp;Those unable to show proof of vaccination will be turned away.
