Video Project Room/Gallery 224

Music and the moving image have long been intertwined, from silent films screened with piano accompaniment to the golden age of MTV filled with audacious and expensive music videos. This iteration of the Video Project Room, "Music/Video" explores the various ways in which artists have used music to change or enhance the various meanings of video art.

Featured Works:
Pipilotti Rist, I'm a Victim of This Song
Chris Marker, Slon Tango
Tony Oursler. In collaboration with Sonic Youth, Tunic (Song for Karen)

The Cleveland Museum of Art is funded in part by residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts & Culture.

This exhibition was supported in part by the Ohio Arts Council, which receives support from the State of Ohio and the National Endowment for the Arts.
