Bill Fontana: ACOUSTICAL VISONS
DMA | Noon, Broad Art Center
A presentation about Fontana's recent work that explores the image that a sound makes and the sounds that an image makes.
Bill Fontana has worked for the past 45 years creating installations that use sound as a sculptural medium to interact with and transform our perceptions of visual and architectural settings. These have been installed in public spaces and museums around the world including San Francisco, New York, Rome, Paris, London, Chicago, Vienna, Berlin, Venice, Sydney ,Tokyo, Barcelona, Linz, Manchester, Istanbul, and Abu Dhabi.
Through the UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture Design Media Arts Department and the California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI), the UCLA Art|Sci Center supports visiting research scholars and artists-in-residence from around the world. Through various lectures, mixers, and symposia, artists and scientists are brought together in order to mesh these cultures and inspire individuals to think about art and science as an interrelated synergism of society.
