MoMA The Museum of Modern Art says…


Part of the Modern Mondays film series


In conjunction with the exhibition Looking at Music: Side 2


John Cale (Welsh, b. 1942), artist, musician, sonic innovator, and a founding member of the experimental rock band The Velvet Underground, reflects upon the liaison between music and art. The evening includes a discussion of his recent work Dyddiau Du (Dark Days) (2009), currently on view in the Wales Pavilion at the Venice Biennale. The installation exemplifies the multivalent nature of contemporary media art. The event, which is held in conjunction with the MoMA exhibition Looking at Music: Side 2, will be moderated by Barbara London, Associate Curator, Department of Media and Performance Art.
