Nicolas Jaar is set to expand his Clown & Sunset label into a more comprehensive, multimedia culture house through a new partnership with film producer Noah Kraft. The new venture, called Clown & Sunset Aesthetics, will act as a parent company to Clown & Sunset, and will be launched with a 5-hour continuous performance on Sunday, February the 6th, from 1-6pm at the MoMA PS1. The event, presented by Pitchfork, is called From Scratch and will feature performances from Jaar, Will Epstein, Dave Harrington and Sasha Spielberg, along with sound-derived video art from CSA’s resident filmmaker Ryan Staake, and a movement piece by Lizzie Fiedelson. The event is free with admission to MoMA PS1.
