Porto, Portugal

On 1 March 2025, Galeria Municipal do Porto will host two performances by Eddie Peake. The first, Organ Harvest, will take place in the afternoon at 3pm, followed by Peake’s new work, The Pervert, in the evening at 7.05pm.

Played within the setting of the art gallery, Organ Harvest is a football match in which two teams of five nude players compete under the supervision of a single referee.

The performance work The Pervert combines gold-painted dancers with a live soundscape orchestrated by the artist. Built on choreographic patterns of dance and sound, the work creates a surreal and ever-evolving experience that explores themes of obsession, desire and the limits of perception
