Jim James, Animal Collective, Angel Olson and Flying Lotus are among the artists slated to perform at the David Lynch Foundation’s Festival of Disruption, which comes to New York’s Brooklyn Steel on May 19th and 20th.
The director himself will also host talks at the two-day festival, including a Blue Velvet screening with actress Isabella Rossellini. An art exhibit showcasing works by Lynch, William Eggleston and Sandro Miller’s Psychogenic Fugue featuring John Malkovich photographed as iconic David Lynch characters is also planned.
Au Revoir Simone, Jon Hopkins, Rebekah Del Rio and more will also perform at the Festival of Disruption, which raises money for the David Lynch Foundation, “whose mission is reducing toxic stress and trauma among at-risk populations, including victims of domestic violence, veterans suffering from PTSD, and underserved urban youth, through the evidence-based Transcendental Meditation technique.”
The Lynch-curated fest will also feature meditation experiences led by Bob Roth and featuring Brian Eno’s Reflection.
Tickets for the third annual Festival of Disruption, which was previously held in Los Angeles its first two years, go on sale Thursday, March 8th. A limited number of tickets will also include an intimate cocktail party hosted by Lynch.
