Steve Roden
day ring, night ring
Skyspace
August 25 – October 15, 2006

Los Angeles artist Steve Roden debuts a pair of sound art compositions 
created in response to James Turrell's Skyspace at the Henry. These new 
works will be the latest in a series of works activating the spare 
forms of specific modern architectural structures with audio tracks 
composed of music and recorded sounds. The Henry Art Gallery is 
delighted to announce that day ring, night ring will open with a live 
performance by the artist.

day ring will be a durational listening experience at specific times 
during the museum's regular hours. night ring will present a continuous 
soundscape for the area near the Skyspace at night. Quietly unfolding 
over several minutes, Roden's work strives for a moment where visual, 
spatial, and aural perceptions become mutually enriching, deepening the 
experience of all three phenomena simultaneously.

Also on view in the Henry's elevator video space is four words for four 
hands (apple.mountain.over.frozen), a silent, vibrantly colorful 
meditation on the system of transcribing musical notes, by which the 
analytical process of reading music becomes a sensual visual 
experience.
