Art Night presented the UK premiere of Reanimation by artist Joan Jonas and the jazz pianist and composer Jason Moran in the monumental gothic architecture of Southwark Cathedral. Reanimation is a playful elegy to the natural world that poetically considers the ever-changing nature of the environment and worlds we inhabit – physically, psychologically and emotionally. Jonas’s and Moran’s epic performance was inspired by the novel Under the Glacier (1968) by Icelandic writer Halldór Laxness and was originally created for dOCUMENTA (13).

The project was supported by Southwark Cathedral, Steinway & Sons, Mondrian London.
