DEAR LOURDES, my show with @leahsinger8 at @galeriatratuario in Funchal, Madeira opened tonight. Although presenting our own work (plus Lourdes+Manuel Zimbro's slide show performance Linha do Horizonte), it culminates a few years of study and appreciation regarding the work of Portuguese artist Lourdes Castro, and celebrates our phantom friendship. Thanks to all who helped and all who came out. We ❤️ Madeira. Catalog available via the gallery.

We’re happy to announce the release of Ranaldo/Singer - Against The Light, an Original Soundtrack by @leeranaldo and @leahsinger8 for @friedpaulriedel 3D VR film.
The recording on side A is from a single, uninterrupted take of Against the Light performed for multiple 3D
cameras on a stage in Guimarães, Portugal in 2024.
The tracks on Side B combine the prerecorded backing tape used in the performance with a voice-over
commentary from Leah Singer discussing her motives and ideas about the images she’s collected and
assembled. It plays as a closed-eye experience of the work.

and special guests
In order to raise funds for Giorno Poetry Systems, John Giorno would produce benefit concerts. Between 1975 and 1994, benefits included performances by Philip Glass, Joan Jonas, Patti Smith, Laurie Anderson, Debbie Harry, Sonic Youth, and John Waters, among many others. After a long break, the tradition starts up again this year with a benefit co-hosted by Meredith Monk and Anne Waldman. After food and drinks at a nearby restaurant, they join some other very special guests to perform at 222 Bowery, culminating in performances of their own. This is a special opportunity to see live performances by cultural icons in the intimate context of a historic NYC loft. There are only 75 seats available.

✨ Com inauguração a 5 de novembro, "Dear Lourdes," reúne obras de Leah Singer, Lee Ranaldo e Lourdes de Castro.
O título com o seu tom afetuoso e a vírgula que o acompanha, sugere uma saudação, mas funciona também como um convite ou o início de uma conversa hipotética.
Em vez de estabelecer uma correspondência direta, esta exposição convida-nos a explorar encontros inesperados, diferenças e ressonâncias entre trajetórias artísticas distintas.
🌖 A 31 de outubro, Lee Ranaldo e Leah Singer apresentam Contre Jour no MUDAS.Museu de Arte Contemporânea da Madeira, numa colaboração artística que cruza música, cinema e performance, criando uma experiência multimédia experimental.
Em 2011, durante uma visita à Madeira, Ranaldo descobriu a obra de Lourdes de Castro e partilhou-a com Singer. Dessa descoberta nasceu uma afinidade artística que a artista descreve como uma espécie de «amizade fantasma»: uma ligação à distância com alguém que nunca chegou verdadeiramente a conhecer.
CONTRE JOUR | 31 de outubro de 2026 · 21h00 · MUDAS.Museu de Arte Contemporânea da Madeira
DEAR LOURDES | 5 de novembro de 2026 · 18h00 · Galeria Tratuário
🎟️ Bilhetes para Contre Jour exclusivamente através da Eventbrite - link na bio da APCA Madeira

"Dear Lourdes," reúne obras de Leah Singer, Lee Ranaldo e Lourdes de Castro.
O título, marcado por uma expressão de afeto e uma vírgula, evoca uma saudação, mas também um convite ou início de uma conversa imaginada. 💬
A exposição nasce da descoberta inesperada de afinidades artísticas que, gradualmente, se foram revelando entre as práticas de Leah Singer e Lee Ranaldo e a obra de Lourdes de Castro.
📍 A inauguração acontece a 5 de novembro, pelas 18 horas - Entrada livre!
Patente até 8 de janeiro de 2027.

Contre Jour: Lee Ranaldo + Leah Singer
SAT / DEC 5 / 8:00PM
Join us for an experimental presentation of Lee Ranaldo & Leah Singer’s Contre Jour on Saturday, December 5, with the performers and audience on the Detroit Opera House stage. The longtime collaborators bring together suspended electric guitar, projected image, shadow, sound, and light. Part concert, part cinema, and part visual art, Ranaldo (co-founder of Sonic Youth) and visual artist and writer Leah Singer have collaborated since 1991, presenting their work internationally at venues including Centre Pompidou, Toronto’s Nuit Blanche, Berlin Atonal, and Dark Mofo.
The evening features a very special guest performance. Detroit’s Battle Elf opens.
Contre Jour is a rare opportunity to encounter two artists whose work has continually existed between experimental music, film, installation and performance—and to experience that work from the stage of one of Detroit's most historic theaters.
Tickets on-sale 10/16 at noon at detroitoperahouse.org/event/contre-jour-lee-ranaldo-leah-singer
