Sonidos de una exposición

Abstract

Pictures at an Exhibtion is a ten-movement Piano Suite by Modest Mussorgsky. In 1874 he visited an exhibition of his friend, the artist Viktor Hartmann, who had died a year earlier. To honor his friend and capture the experience of the tour, he composed a piece in which each of the movements is a musical illustration of each of Hartmann's works. The Colectivo Artes No Decorativas S.A makes a sound tour through the exhibition Objects of Doubt and Certainty by Manuela Ribadeneira, (Quito Contemporary Art Center 2019-2020). As in Mussorgski's work, each sound is a musical/sound illustration of each work, and it is a tour of the exhibition as well. It can be heard in the suggested order by the curator Rodolfo Kronfle. However, the visitor can choose the order and create their own tour.
