Just kicked off at Govett-Brewster Art Gallery in New Plymouth is What sound does a color make?, a traveling exhibition exploring the fusion of vision and sound in electronic media. Organised by Independent Curators International (ICI) of New York, the exhibition features contemporary works by 10 international artists, from the pioneering single-channel video works of Nam June Paik, Steina Vasulka and Gary Hill, to recent works by Jim Campbell and London-based collective D-Fuse. The exhibition connects the recent boom of digital audiovisual art to its pre-digital roots. What sound does a color make? is curated by Kathleen Forde. It runs at Govett-Brewster Gallery until July 16.
