These remarkable, >hand-drawn, written and colored documents are rarely seen and almost never >heard. These original works, many of which were composed specifically for >Cage's book, come from Pierre Boulez, the Beatles, Charles Ives, Allan >Kaprow, Yoko Ono, Nam June Paik, Steve Reich, Karlheinz Stockhausen, Iannis >Xenakis, and many others. Remarkable for their visual impact alone, this >collection of handwritten, avant-garde compositions demonstrates the >peculiar power of the liminal dimension that links seeing and hearing, >effectively ushering the viewer/listener into the interstitial space between >music and visual art. > >Cuarator Hannah B Higgins of UIC has mounted an exhibition at Gallery 400 of >these scores, presented with their premier recordings.
