Princess Belsize Dollar: Conversations via Skype

- ROLLO Contemporary Art, 51 Cleveland Street, London W1T 4JH
- Nearest Tube
- Goodge Street (Northern)
Get ready for something a little different. Princess Belsize Dollar, aka Helen Carmel Benigson, is a self-styled video artist, rapper, lover, activist and sushi addict, who lists amongst her key interests Eminem, Match of the Day, late night poker, youporn.com, sun-worshiping, moisturising, gold jewellery, soldiers and royalty. Fresh out of the Slade and already creating quite a frenzy, the artist will be treating us to an exclusive live performance and Q&A streamed live into Rollo Contemporary Art via Skype. Welcome to the 21st century folks.
Princess’s work, an eclectic fusion of performance, rap, film and photography, explores the notions of boundaries (whether political, geographical or physical), stereotypical femininity, fantasy, being a female Jewish rapper, and most interestingly our obsession with cyberspace. Which is where Skype comes in. Providing we don’t encounter any unforeseen ‘technical problems’, you’ll be experiencing a pivotal moment in the history of Love Art London Q&As. Be there or be square.
This event is for Members Only (25 places)
