VOLUMES Performance with Mark Guiliana
Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts
724 S. 12th Street
Omaha, NE 68102
Presented as part of the exhibition Ezra Masch: VOLUMES.
For each unique performance, the participating performer activates the installation through a distinct audio-visual approach, engaging the dynamic interplay between sound and light in ways that reflect their individual practices. Showcasing the artists’ unique stylistic sensibilities, the installation actively shapes their creative decision-making within the space in real time. This reciprocal exchange between sonic input and visual response establishes a generative framework—one that consistently yields unexpected, exploratory, and innovative outcomes.
Admission is free; RSVPs are encouraged.
About Mark Guiliana
Hailed by The New York Times as “a drummer around whom a cult of admiration has formed,” Grammy-nominated superstar drummer and composer Mark Guiliana brings an adventurous spirit, eclectic palette, and gift for spontaneous invention to a staggering range of styles. Equally virtuosic playing acoustic jazz, boundary-stretching electronic music, or next-level rock, he’s become a key collaborator with such original sonic thinkers as St. Vincent, Matt Cameron (Pearl Jam/Soundgarden), Brad Mehldau, M83, Meshell Ndegeocello, and the late, great David Bowie.
Guiliana’s latest release, MARK, is his first entirely solo work which boldly showcases him as composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist—performing and layering percussion, piano, synthesizers, and more. This new foray into his growing body of renowned work, recorded at Studio 606 in Los Angeles, is a culmination of Guiliana's experiences and inspirations, and at the same time the catalyst of a new direction. MARK follows his first two acclaimed Edition Records albums: the sound of listening and Mischief.
