Description

Reactor The Green Man & Regular Fellows Open Friday 30 September & Saturday 1 October 6 pm - 11 pm Sunday 2 October 12:00 pm - 2:30 pm and 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm The Green Man and Regular Fellows is a newly commissioned, live artwork in the form of a pub, complete with adjoining function room. Here Reactor’s interest in the the nature of membership as a social construct manifests itself in a series of temporary groups and levels of fellowship. The structure of the work plays with the traditions and conventions of the ‘public house’ and ‘private members’ clubs’, producing unexpectedly dis lodged behaviours. This brief materialisation of The Green Man & Regular Fellows presents a set of mysteries, inviting speculation about its symbols and purpose. Where did it come from, and who is it for? The Green Man and Regular Fellows offers membership, invites you in for drinks and provides a rich environment of song, laughter and games. As the Landlord calls upon the Regulars to lend a hand and the more Irregular members burst out of the back rooms, the atmosphere increasingly becomes more intense and behaviours more frenzied. It will soon become clear why our Regular Fellows like to come back time and time again. If membership is not for you, and you prefer not to participate, the Function Room will house Reactor’s new video installation, The Guild. Whichever position you choose, you will receive a warm welcome. Want to know more?
