Starting point for this show was the celebration of the 100th birthday of Harry Bertoia through the release of the Complete Sonambient Collection featuring all 11 of Bertoia’s original records newly restored from their master tapes accompanied by a 100 page book containing a lengthy historic essay, an interview with Harry Bertoia, exclusive Sonambient material from his personal archive, modern and archival photos of the Bertoia barn as well as reflections on him from David Sefton, Tom Welsh, David Harrington (Kronos Quartet) and all three of Bertoia’s children.
His work is regarded highly influential in the Sound Art scene and welcomed by drone musicians, hence the choice of artists such as Jacob Kirkegaard, John Duncan and Josef Anton Riedl.
