Making Room for Sound

Résumé du livre

"This conversation I was invited to moderate, is part of Eric Namour's multipronged project "elnicho" to examine on how to make better exhibitions that have as central element aural and phonic works, be it music, sound or noise. [ ] We invited three curators who have worked widely with the different mediums in both institutional and independent art spaces, as well as in music and time-based-work festivals. The discussion in the following pages features Italian curator Andrea Lissoni, who has worked extensively with sound, music and noise in the festival context as well as under a major art institution, the Tate Modern, where he implemented a sound program. Fiona Meade, who was the artistic director and senior curator at Sculpture Center in New York and at the Henry Art Gallery in Seattle and Chiara Giovanda, a Los Angeles-based independent curator who is also a musician and sound artist, performance and the ephemeral in both independent spaces and institutions." --Michel Fiedler (Page [2])
