WALTERS ART MUSEUM COLLABORATION
COURBET AND THE MODERN LANDSCAPE IS THE FIRST MAJOR EXHIBITION TO EXAMINE COURBET’S PIVOTAL LANDSCAPES
David Witmer- Spring
click here to visit the official website and listen to the music
The Walters has partnered with The Peabody Conservatory to create a unique musical experience for visitors to the exhibition. The installation is grouped into four sections, each with a seasonal theme and mood. Students from the Peabody ’s renowned composition department have drawn inspiration from Courbet’s paintings to create original, ambient music that will encourage the visitor’s complete sensory immersion into the landscape. The music, which is intertwined with sounds such as wind and water, is complemented by subtle lighting effects designed by lighting artist Paul Deeb (founding CEO of the Baltimore-based lighting corporation Vox) that will simulate almost imperceptibly the changing intensity of light from dawn to dusk.
Art Review | 'Courbet and the Modern Landscape' (New York Times)
A Burly Father of Modernism, Presented With Accompaniment By ROBERTA SMITH Published: October 13, 2006
“… an amazing and beautiful show at the Walters Art Museum, where the magnificence of the artist’s vision is complemented by a magical exhibition design.”
