The Bushwick Starr is thrilled to present the world premiere of The Art of Luv (Part 5): Swipe Right / ROKÉ Cupid, created and performed by Royal Osiris Karaoke Ensemble (“ROKE”).
The Art of Luv (Part 5): Swipe Right / ROKÉ Cupid is a cycle of sacred love songs for the era of Internet Romance, a meditation on selfhood and intimacy in a mediated society. Three officiants perform an elaborate courtship ritual inside a kaleidoscopic video tent. The ritual is accompanied by live music and text taken from online dating profiles, internet scams, how-to dating guides, and the works of ecstatic poets. In Swipe Right / ROKÉ Cupid, ROKE attempts to imbue our modern search for love with a forgotten spiritual resonance.
The Art of Luv is a multi-part, multi-year, multi-disciplinary series which addresses the mythologies behind normative 21st Century codes of romantic conduct. The products of their practice have taken a range of forms: public ritual-performances, video, sculpture, installation, lecture, and party.
The Art of LUV (Part 5): Swipe Right / ROKE Cupid is commissioned by The Bushwick Starr.
The Art of Luv is a project of Creative Capital.
