ALLORA & CALZADILLA - WAKE UP, CLAMOR, SEDIMENTS SENTIMENTS (FIGURES OF SPEECH)

The Kunstverein München, in collaboration with the Haus der Kunst, is pleased to present the artist collaborative Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla with the exhibition >ALLORA & CALZADILLA: WAKE UP, CLAMOR, SEDIMENTS SENTIMENTS (FIGURES OF SPEECH)< at the Kunstverein München.

At centre of this cycle of works, which were created over the last two years, is the critical examination of how power, militarism, and war are encoded through sound. The works in this exhibition attend not only to the diverse ways in which music has been used and abused throughout history, but considers these sonic documents (intersections of historic, cultural and political forces) as raw material for generating new forms of musical expression, whose meaning and power to affect remains un-formed.
