The exhibition was organized in collaboration with the Mus\u00e9e Musique-Philharmonique de Paris with the aim of illuminating the parameter of music, as a symbol, as a signal, as a motif, as a sound, among Basquiat&#8217;s groundbreaking works. Music holds a prominent place in Jean-Michel Basquiat\u2019s painterly practice in the form of sign, symbol and sound. His oeuvre is replete with depictions of musical instruments alongside references to opera, classical music, jazz, bebop, hip-hop and rap. Presenting some 100 works by the artist together with numerous sound clips, film footage and archival documents, the exhibition provides an innovative in-depth look at Basquiat\u2019s career as a musician, the sounds that accompanied his mark-making and the musicians who inspired him, from Beethoven to the New York underground scene of the 1970s and 1980s and, notably, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis and Maria Callas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Until February 19, 2023<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>LONDON (UK)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-cyan-blue-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\">Exhibition: <em>Members Hours: Magdalena Abakanowicz<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/image-397-1024x724.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11280\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This exhibition is a rare chance to see the towering works from artist&nbsp;Magdalena Abakanowicz.

With the exception of a few loans, the drawings on display come from the collection of Dagmar and Manfred Chobot, who acquired the Austrian artist&#8217;s entire estate in 1987. Fleck&#8217;s estate is a large part of the Chobots&#8217; substantial donation to Albertina museum in 2019. The exhibition takes individual focal points from the work of Karl Anton Fleck: While in the early 1960s he used an abstract pictorial language inspired by Informel, he subsequently incorporated increasingly figurative elements, resulting in surreal compositions of body fragments and objects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:25px\">Until January 22, 2023<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exhibition: Lessons of the Hour: A Conversation with Isaac Julien At the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (VMFA), an exhibition dedicated to Frederick Douglass&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1209,1188,1157],"tags":[2926,1151,2131,3106],"class_list":["post-11276","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-exhibitions","category-arts","category-culture","tag-art","tag-culture","tag-exhibition","tag-glances-at-the-art-world"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11276","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11276"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11276\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11318,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11276\/revisions\/11318"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11276"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11276"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11276"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
