About The Exhibition

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
