recently opened: “Soundings: A Contemporary Score”  Luke Fowler, Toshiya Tsunoda, Marco Fusinato, Richard Garet,  Florian Hecker, Christine Sun Kim, Jacob Kirkegaard,  Haroon Mirza, Carsten Nicolai, Camille Norment, Tristan Perich,  Susan Philipsz, Sergei Tcherepnin, Hong-Kai Wang,  Jana Winderen, and Stephen Vitiello Museum of Modern Art, 11 W53rd St., NYC MoMA’s first major exhibition of sound art presents work by 16 of the most innovative contemporary artists working with sound. While these artists approach sound from a variety of disciplinary angles—the visual arts, architecture, performance, computer programming, and music—they share an interest in working with, rather than against or independent of, material realities and environments. These artistic responses range from architectural interventions, to visualizations of otherwise inaudible sound, to an exploration of how sound ricochets within a gallery, to a range of field recordings—including echolocating bats, abandoned buildings in Chernobyl, 59 bells in New York City, and a sugar factory in Taiwan. - thru Nov 3 pictured: Richard Garet’s “Before Me” and Sergei Tcherepnin’s “Motor Matter Bench”
