Ukratko In brief
Muzika iz „Metropolitena“ Music from the Met
S vaki odlazak u „Metropoliten“ muzej predstav- lja lekciju iz istorije umetnosti, ali septembarski izložbeni kalendar na Petoj aveniji donosi postav- ke koje direktno spajaju zvuk, pokret i savreme- nu vizuelnu umetnost. Sve do 27. septembra, u centralnim galerijama Muzeja otvorena je izložba „Musical Bodies“, prva velika interdisciplinarna studija u istoriji ovog muzeja posvećena neraskidivoj vezi između ljudskog tela i muzičkih instrumenata. Postavka okuplja oko 130 retkih eksponata iz celog sve- ta, od drevnih egipatskih udaraljki i instrumenata iz do- ba renesanse, pa sve do savremenih skulptura koje istražu- ju akustiku i anatomiju. Izložba ne tretira instrumente samo kao predmete primenjene umetnosti već i kao produžetak ljudskog glasa i pokreta, nudeći posetiocima multisenzorno iskustvo koje redefiniše način na koji posmatramo vizuelne i zvučne umetnosti. Pored ove postavke, od 17. septembra „Metropoliten“ dobija i novo spoljašnje lice. Na samoj fasadi Muzeja duž Pete avenije otvara se monumentalna instalacija priznatog kineskog umetnika Ljua Veja („The Genesis Faca- de Commission“), što predstavlja njegovu prvu veliku samo- stalnu narudžbinu za jednu američku instituciju. Za sve one koji u septembru sleću u Njujork odlazak u „Metropoliten“ nudi savršen spoj klasičnog muzejskog do- življaja i hrabrih savremenih konceptualnih projekata. Na- kon obilaska galerija tradicija nalaže odlazak na krovnu te- rasu Muzeja („The Roof Garden“), odakle se pruža jedan od najlepših pogleda na Central park i siluetu Menhetna.
E very visit to the Metropolitan Museum is a les- son in art history, but September’s exhibition cal- endar on Fifth Avenue brings installations that directly fuse sound, movement and contempo- rary visual art. Until 27 th September, the exhibi- tion Musical Bodies, representing the first major interdisci- plinary study in the history of this museum, dedicated to the inextricable links between the human body and musical in- struments, runs in this museum’s central galleries. The exhibition gathers around 130 rare exhibits from all over the world, from ancient Egyptian percussion rattles and instruments from the Renaissance era, to contemporary sculp- tures that explore acoustics and anatomy. The exhibition treats instruments not only as objects of applied art, but as exten- sions of the human voice and movement, offering visitors a multisensory experience that redefines the way we view visual and sonic arts. Apart from this exhibition, the Metropoli- tan will also gain a new exterior as of 17 th September. A mon- umental installation by renowned Chinese artist Liu Wei (as part of the Genesis Facade Commission) opens on the façade niches of the Fifth Avenue museum, marking the artist’s first major independent project for an American institution. For all those landing in New York in September, a trip to the Met offers the perfect combination of a classic museum expe- rience and bold contemporary conceptual projects. After visit- ing the galleries, tradition dictates that patrons head to the mu- seum’s roof terrace (The Roof Garden), which provides one of the most beautiful views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline.
