Publisher Description:
The vinyl record as an artistic medium: a contemporary sequel to the 1989 definitive guide on sound works and records by artists
Following Ursula Block's groundbreaking 1989 exhibition "Broken Music: Artists' Recordworks" and the accompanying publication, which was reproduced in facsimile by Pioneer Works in 2018, this theoretical sequel explores the development of the record as an artistic medium from the postwar period to the present. Broken Music Vol. 2 explores links between the fields of music in composition and improvisation, pop, punk and techno, expanded by sound works from the collection of the Nationalgalerie, including sound installations and media works.
Artists include: Tauba Auerbach, Harry Bertoia, Luciano Castelli, Martin Creed, Henning Christiansen, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, Romuald Hazoumé, Rolf Julius, Milan Knízák, Christina Kubisch, Piotr Nathan, Bruce Nauman, Hermann Nitsch, Charlemagne Palestine, Mario Pfeifer, A.R. Penck, Salomé, Richard Serra, Viktor Vasarely, Lawrence Weiner.
