Alongside Sound of Music, Turner Contemporary presents Crossroads (2009), an installation by David Blandy

Filmed in the heat of the Mississippi Delta, Crossroads is in part a portrait of a landscape still deeply, though not officially, segregated. The film follows a man with a guitar, the Blues Legend, on his journey to the Crossroads to recover his lost soul. The figure roams the landscape looking for a genuine Blues experience, picking guitar on porches and walking dusty roads, to a haunting soundtrack of slide guitar music.

Crossroads is an Arts Council England National Touring Commission initiated by Spike Island and supported by 176, Zabludowicz Collection
