2014_04  Police Boxes 5

The Edinburgh Art Festival 2014 is a diverse range of what is meant by art.

One exhibit will be housed in an old Police Box along Easter Road.

“Currents is a sound installation and series of performances by artist and musician, Yann Seznec and is realised as part of PRS for Music Foundation’s ‘New Music Biennial’, part of the Glasgow 2014 Cultural Programme. Using instruments constructed entirely from discarded computer fans, Seznec’s new work is a physical and sonic experience, drawing on real-time weather data from around the world to move air around the visitor and inform the composition.”

Founded in 2004, Edinburgh Art Festival is the UK’s largest annual festival of visual art, offering the chance to experience the best contemporary Scottish, UK and international artists in the context of exhibitions of some of the most important artists and movements of the 20th Century and historical periods. Attracting over 280,000 attendances in 2013, Edinburgh Art Festival (EAF) brings together the capital’s leading galleries, museums and artist-run spaces, alongside new public art commissions by established and emerging artists and an innovative programme of special events. Edinburgh Art Festival is a charitable organisation supported by Creative Scotland and the City of Edinburgh Council.
