Harrell Fletcher (MFA 1994) invites busking musicians to take their performances from the tube stations and streets of London into the gallery to play live and online to the BMW Tate Live Performance Room's global audience on June 28.

Harrell Fletcher's work often takes the form of socially engaged collaborative and interdisciplinary projects. For his BMW Tate Live performance, "Where I'm Calling From," the musicians will shift from playing to a local London audience to performing on a global online stage. By moving these performers from subway stations, to gallery space, and then out to the world through the Web, Harrell Fletcher aims to question value and the influence of the Internet.

Audiences can view the BMW Tate Live performances on the Internet and are invited to enter the online Performance Room beginning at 8 p.m. in the United Kingdom (1 p.m. PDT).
