Parallel to Art Basel, Gare du Nord presents «Sounds Nice» for the first time. In both the concert hall and the former restaurant space, a vibrant mix of performances, installations, and concerts unfolds – all at the intersection of music, performance, and visual art. DJ sets and parties round out the experience.
Among the projects presented as part of «Sounds Nice» is the immersive sound installation «I'm all ears» - a hybrid work between happening, installation and performance that stages the concert hall in an unusual way.
I’m all ears
«I’m all ears» is a happening, immersive sound installation, performance, and instant rave all in one. A circle of speakers surrounds the Gare du Nord hall. In the center: a cloud of mist and haze, a small beach bar with an ice cream stand and deck chairs. It’s an oasis for chilling, listening, swaying, and dancing. Two performers guide and care for the audience throughout a magical evening.
For «I’m all ears», Gare du Nord launched an open call, inviting regional artists to submit works for this impressive multichannel setup.
