Visitors learned about one of Jeremy Deller’s favorite bands, the Happy Mondays, with “Madchester” fanatics, artists, and childhood friends Anthony Campuzano and Dan Murphy during an afternoon of anecdotal lore, music, and video clips, followed by a dance party in the ICA’s own version of The Haçienda. Dave Haslam, legendary Haçienda DJ, made a surprise appearance.
