Summary
RED ROOM is an art lounge held for two days once every two months, when a “red room” appears in the 1929 stone entrance hall of YCC Yokohama Creativecity Center. As the name suggests, everything from the lighting to the interior is built around the theme of red, and drinks including alcohol are served from a bar counter. The lighting and the red room itself are artworks made by Kyota Takahashi and Reiko Kawaguchi, the artists known for their light works at Yokohama’s annual Smart Illumination festival; the result is a lounge event in which historic architecture, art, music and performance come together. RED ROOM #4 brought together the space created by Takahashi and Kawaguchi, music and a DJ set by LaLa (Toru Yamanaka), a script and narrative by Ame Deguchi, the drag queens Francois Ardente (Eiichi Maeda) and Changja Semolina, the choreographer and dancer Kei Tsujimoto, and special guest Conyo Snatch Zubovinskaya (Noriko Sunayama), with three scheduled show times a day and surprise performances inside RED ROOM.
