Braxton in the spring of 1982 in front of his @thekitchen_nyc show poster. Coincidentally, Roulette co-founder Jim Staley played on this concert! It had a full orchestra and was presented at @symphonyspace to accommodate everybody. This week, on Thursday May 8 - nearly four and half decades later - Roulette celebrates Braxton at our 2025 Gala, featuring performances of his work by collaborators from throughout his career. There are just a small handful of tickets left to this special night! link in bio. Images courtesy of The Kitchen 🖤 (fb)

Gryphon Rue @4n_objx in @thewiremagazine! by Abi Bliss, on the release of his recent album I Keep My Diamond Necklace in a Pond of Sparkling Water💧 We’re thrilled to share that Gryphon has been elected to Roulette’s Board of Directors! Gryphon is an artist, composer and musician who brings a rich interdisciplinary perspective rooted in sound, visual art, and curation. He’s presented work at Roulette (is a former awarded artist) and venues worldwide, and his creative and editorial projects—including Strange Attractor and work with Ballroom Marfa and the Calder Foundation—reflect a deep commitment to artistic exploration and community-building. His election continues Roulette’s tradition of centering artists in organizational leadership; we’re excited to work alongside him in shaping the future of experimental work, and supporting the artists who make it possible! also peep Alvin Curran’s Invisible Jukebox 🎧 (fb)
