Listening to Art

framework 912: framework:afield

For the 2 December 2024 edition of Patrick McGinley’s wonderful radio show framework, in one of the guest-curated framework:afield instalments, I presented selections from some of my favourites from the first twelve volumes of Listening to Art.

I use field recordings from the following issues. I layered extracts and, a few times, spoke over them, with some quotes from the original issues.

  • Asha Cabaca, Perpetuity of the Shelf Fungus (11.02)
  • Frans Hals, Isaac Abrahamsz. Massa (08.02)
  • Leonardo da Vinci, Mona Lisa (05.06)
  • Barnett Newman, Voice of Fire (03.12)
  • Alexander Calder, Janey Waney (07.12)
  • Eugène Delacroix, Liberty Leading the People (05.08)
  • Angelica Kauffman, The Ely Family (11.10)
  • Henry Moore, Large Two Forms (07.08)
  • Yayoi Kusama, Obliteration Room (09.06)
  • Marcel Duchamp, Fountain (06.01)
  • Marcel Duchamp, Fountain (06.02)
  • Helen McNicoll, The Chintz Sofa (11.06)
  • Mark di Suvero, Sticky Wicket (07.05)
  • Gustave Courbet, The Painter’s Studio (06.10)
  • Caravaggio, Saint Jerome (03.09)

Many, many thanks to Patrick for letting me do a show.
