Music as Painting, Sculpture or Architecture

Original language description

Until 1900, music was considered a time-based art. With the advent of new media and the theory of relativity this concept has proved unsustainable. The immediate task of the avant-garde became to colonize the missing dimension, in the case of music the spatial dimension. Kandinsky in his famous treatise Point and line to plane (1926) examined basic pictorial elements from zero- to two-dimensionsal. Similarly, music can be represented by notes (points) and melodies (lines) to harmonic structures (planes). Nevertheless, we still remain in the realm of musical notation. But what if music turned into painting, sculpture or architecture? The following lecture provides several examples of transcoding musical structure into famous artworks of the 20th century by František Kupka, Eila Hiltunen, Edgard Varèse and Iannis Xenakis.
