Video of My Artist Talk at AMoA by Sean Gaulager

Sean runs an amazing space in Austin called Co-Lab.

HUM at SOFA Gallery opens Saturday, March 5 | 7-10pm

Barry Stone’s exhibition of photographs, collages, and drawings, Hum, distorts sets of polarities: feminine and masculine, the ballad and metal music, the drawn image and the mechanical image, youth and adulthood.

A 16-page full color catalog packaged with a CD of original music written and performed by Stone to accompany the exhibition will be available.
Each CD sleeve features a unique drawing.

Listening party at 7:30pm SHARP.

Music and Art: Janet Cardiff

The Forty Part Motet, MoMA, NY

I saw this installation at PS1. At PS1 the room was lined with windows and it was lightly snowing outside. Ann and I walked around the space and you could hear each individual voice from each speaker as you passed which of course melded into one beautiful aural and sculptural experience. Sitting on benches at opposite ends of the gallery, we looked up and discovered we were both demurely sobbing. We then immediately burst out laughing at the absurdity and beauty of crying openly in an art exhibition.

More about the artist and piece here.
