Max Neuhaus: Finding Absence
How do we listen to the public spaces that we inhabit? Artist Max Neuhaus’s explores this question through the ring of a church bell that no longer exists, a silence in time square, and sound forms made for plants.
Cities, towns, and buildings are often defined by the tactile materials used to construct them. Metal, wood, glass, and greenery may play a role in creating spaces, but so does sound. Exploring artists whose work considers audio and the built environment, the series Sounds of Space delves into how artists have reexamined the acoustic contours of the sites we inhabit.
