Josef Baier | Sound Shapes

8.3. bis 26.5.2024 Museum of Fine Arts Liberec, Masarykova 723/14, 46001 Liberec

The prominent Austrian author of monumental works for public space, Josef Baier (1951), will present his kinetic-sound installation Hörkurven (2017) in the swimming pool hall of the Liberec Regional Gallery, in which moving pendulums make the sound of precisely tuned sound tubes. The sound composition is linked with the visual perception – the undulating path of moving pendulums. In other areas of the gallery, the broader context of Baier's work will be presented – abstract geometric works connecting the aesthetic plane with philosophical and mathematical inspiration, installations related to the four main elements, sound works, and playful kinetic creations.
Curator Daniela Kramerová
