Cultural Industry.
CULTURAL INDUSTRY is an independent, international production company, based in London that produces and presents new work across a complete spectrum of the performing arts.
Established in 1987 by Michael Morris, Cultural Industry has been responsible for on-going presentation of work in the UK by Robert Lepage, Pina Bausch, La La La Human Steps and the production of special projects by Brian Eno, Laurie Anderson, Heiner Goebbels and Robert Wilson, amongst many others, in a range of leading venues throughout the UK. Cultural Industry's current international touring production is the highly acclaimed Shockheaded Peter, which has now been seen across four continents and is currently being developed as a feature film. Forthcoming projects include the first English language production of The Black Rider (Robert Wilson/Tom Waits), a co-production with the Barbican, where it will open in May 2004.
Michael Morris is also, with James Lingwood, Co-Director of Artangel, which commissions and produces new work by exceptional artists in unusual locations. Past commissions include Michael Landy's Breakdown at the C&A building on Oxford Street, Alain Platel's Because I Sing at the Roundhouse, Jeremy Deller's The Battle of Orgreave in South Yorkshire and Giya Kancheli's Imber on Salisbury Plain. In 2002, Artangel celebrated a decade of projects with the publication of Off Limits, a book about Artangel's work and four new works in London by Richard Wentworth, Shirin Neshat, Steve McQueen and Matthew Barney.
