Multiplying the arts to make the work immersive

"To best imagine a universe, we need to use the most of our senses. It seemed therefore vital to use several forms of media to make my universe comprehensible, appropriable, imaginable and immersive."
Artistic Direction
 

Rith Banney likes the idea of merging “Arts and Senses” in order to make his artistic proposals complete, intelligible and therefore immersive.

Artistic Director since 2002 for festivals, parisian venues and producers (L’aérosol, Festival des Giboulées, Batofar, Glaz’Art, L’Entrepôt, Grand Bain Production), Yann Berthin aka Rith Banney has programmed thousands of artists : Bonobo, Kavinsky, The Animals, Frank Black (Pixies), Buzzcocks, Wax Tailor, Raekwon, M.O.P., Tycho, Nina Kravitz, Maya Jane Coles, Worakls, C2C…

Musician and filmmaker, he proposes visceral and obsessive music (electro, house, techno) and creates dark, intoxicating and exciting visual content (black & white, monochrome) around themes that he loves: nightlife, the deadly sins, and the magic number 7.

For music or image, Rith Banney has collaborated with more than 60 artists: Pierre Henry, Roya Arab & Rosko John (Archive), Wodd, Black Sifichi...

After many international events (Gartenstudio Gallery - Berlin, Center’s Art - Boston, Yes Club - Prague, La Gaïté Lyrique - Paris), many photographic books, videos clips and singles releases, Rith Banney co-founded with Matterflow his own label Material Boys in 2016 to propose new projects.
