Neuer Berliner Kunstverein (n.b.k.)Sounds. Radio - Art - New Music
Exhibition
The exhibition project Sounds. Radio – Art – New Music makes radio accessible as an artistic medium, and makes it possible to experience it in a spatial context. Based on the polyvocality of radio art and a fascination with the disembodied character that shaped the early years of radio, the exhibition opens surprising perspectives on radio art and its potential to create complex experiential spaces. Five radio works that emerged 2009 in the framework of the German/Czech radio art project rádio d-cz formed the starting point of the exhibition. Writers, artists, dramaturges, sound collectors, and musicians went on a journey of discovery in German-Czech lifeworlds for rádio d-cz. The five pieces encounter in the exhibition historical and contemporary references that make it possible for us to understand their respective stylistic resonance. Additional 25 referential pieces from 80 years of radio history stand for the five elementary force fields of radio that fascinated writers and artists since the beginning of the medium. The archive part of the exhibition presents 100 additional radio art productions from the participating broadcasters as well as additional material. More info about the exhibition here.
