Gabriel Lester

Lester later produced and published rap and electronic music as Utile Connection and Definitely Def using so called tape loops, cassette decks and turntables before moving into digital samplers and sequencers.

Lester’s practise has always been international, with many art residencies, group and solo exhibitions, gallery representations in Europe, North America, and Asia.

Lester has participated in over twenty large scale international art exhibitions, such as the Documenta in Kassel and the biennale of Venice, Sao Paulo, Istanbul and Sydney.

Open ended, sustaining mystery and without obvious dogma or singular ideas, Lester proposes ways to relate to the world, how it is represented and what mechanisms and components constitute our perception and understanding of it.

Lester frequently collaborates with Raimundas Malašauskas, Aaron Schuster, Onco Tattje, Carlos Amorales, Job Chajes and Arnaud Hendrickx.
