Modern artists, such as Vassily Kandinsky, Charles Burchfield, and Claude Flight, began experimenting with visual abstraction as a means of representing the concept of sound. While their approaches differed, each saw sound/music as a source of artistic inspiration.
This installation is presented in conjunction with the Jazz in July concert series. In addition to the museum’s regular hours, these works will be available for viewing 5:00–8:30 p.m. during each Jazz in July concert.
