After a beautiful summer we are now approaching autumn and the end of the season. DordtYart shows contemporary sound art with works by 16 artists for another three weekends. Sound art has been an important part of our programming from the beginning. Two large installations have been constructed on site this time, working well for the hall and the place. Rutger Pontzen writes in de Volkskrant: 'The exhibition gives an overview of sounds that, however abstract they may be, can make you wander about miles away.' In short, the visitors travel through space and time. You are welcome from Friday to Sunday from 11 am to 5 pm and on the Sundays we program extra activities: September 23, 15.00 hrs: reading TUSSENBEELD As part of the extra exhibition TUSSENBEELD, in the back of the Hall a lecture will be held by Anne Berk, curator and publicist. The exhibition is organized by Trudy Kunkeler as a result of the publication of the book about her work with the same title. 30 September, 15.00 hrs: performance Horst Rickels and Robert Pravda In the hall there is a diagonal line of 8 different loudspeaker objects where the loudspeakers themselves revolve around their vertical or horizontal axis. Because of this rotation, the focus of auditory perception is constantly changing. The sound is experienced directly through the speaker as well as indirectly through the varying reflection of the room acoustics of DordtYart. Where the installation brings you an endless variation of the same series of sounds, during the concert 'Soundtrack for an imaginary film' the principle of development is discussed: Sounds of organ pipes with over- and underpressure that no longer reminds of the traditional organ, recordings of abrasive steel scaffolding of the 'Landungsbrücken' in Hamburg, an overtone choir in the marble caves of Carrara and fragments of 'Fort-Klank', a sound installation by Dick Raaijmakers and Horst Rickels. Also on this beautiful Snuday the instrument Wind Cello by Lars Kynde is played. October 7, 15.00 hrs: finissage Science of Sound with performances by Andreas Sahl Andersen and Lars Kynde During the finissage there will be performances by Andreas Sahl Andersen and Lars Kynde and many artists will be present. |
