Music, Art and Performance from Liszt to Riot Grrrl
Bloomsbury Visual Arts (Verlag)
978-1-5013-3013-1 (ISBN)
Focused on music as a central experience of art and life, these essays scrutinize ‘the musicalisation of art’ focusing on the visual and performing arts and detailing significant instances of intra-art relations between c. 1840 and the present day. Essays reflect on the aesthetic relationships of music to painting, performance and installation, sound-and- silence, time-and-space. The insistent influence of Wagner is considered as well as the work and ideas of Manet, Satie and Cage, Thomas Wilfred, La Monte Young and Eliasson. What distinguishes these studies are the convictions that music is never alone and that a full understanding of the “isms” of the last two hundred years is best achieved when music’s influential presence in the visual arts is acknowledged and interrogated.
Diane V. Silverthorne is an art historian and a ‘Vienna 1900’ scholar, with research interests in the synchronicity of music and the visual arts from the mid-nineteenth century onwards. She has published in several anthologies including Music and Modernism 1849-1950 (2012), The Routledge Companion to Music and Visual Culture (2013) and Music and Transcendence (2015). She holds a post in cultural studies at the University of the Arts, London and is working on a monograph about Vienna Secessionist and stage designer Alfred Roller (1864-1932) and the aesthetics of the Gesamtkunstwerk.
