Germany: On Air — The Sound of the Material in the Art of the 1950s to 1970s
2023-03-26 11:00 - 18:00 UTC | Kaiser Wilhelm Museum, Joseph-Beuys-Platz 1, Krefeld, 47798, Germany
The Kunstmuseen Krefeld are dedicating an exhibition titled On Air to the invisible material of sound in the art of the 1950s to ’70s. In this experimental period, boundaries in art were broken down, and artists processed materials that had previously played no role in the art context. Sounds, tones, noises, signals, and voices also became “substantial” sculptural material. Hearing now enriched sensual perception. Starting with machine sculptures, sound flowed into genres such as performance, installation, and new media, which were just beginning to emerge. The focus is on sound objects by artists such as, among others, Yaakov Agam, Joseph Beuys, Hermann Goepfert, Jannis Kounellis, Bruce Nauman, Robert Rauschenberg, Jean Tinguely, David Tudor and Timm Ulrichs. The exhibition will be accompanied by a catalog (German/English).

DETAILS
About Sal Martirano
Martirano was among the very first composers to use and invent new computer technology for composition. He created two electronic music systems, the first being the Sal-Mar Construction and later the YahaSALmaMac. The Sal-Mar Construction was called “the world’s first composing machine” by the Science Digest. Composer Joel Chadabe noted that “The Sal-Mar Construction is a historically important musical event and a stunning and classical display of individual American invention.
Martirano’s best-known composition is “L’s G.A.” (1967) for gassed-masked politico, helium bomb, three 16mm movie projectors and 2 channel tape recorder.
