Polyphone. Visual and sound polyphony offers sensory experiences to think about the world through the encounter with visual and sound works of 14 international artists who reveal the poetic and political potential of listening.
The installations, performances, drawings, photographs and videos presented come from different creative contexts, both historical – from the 1970s to the present – as well as geographical – including Germany, France, Lebanon, the United States, Japan and South Africa. These works question the effects and power of plural voices and sounds in contemporary society.
