"Christina Kubisch, born 1948, belongs to the first generation of sound artists. Trained as a composer, she has artistically developed such techniques as magnetic induction to realize her installations. Since 1986 the artist, who has gained a reputation through her numerous international exhibits (Biennial Venice, documenta 1987, Ars Electronica/Linz, Sonic Boom/London, etc.), has added light as artistic element to her work with sound. This book was produced for a presentation of her works at the Opel Villas in Russelsheim and provides a comprehensive overview of her works between the years 1980 and 2000. Christina Kubisch's work displays an artistic development which is often described as the "synthesis of arts" - the discovery of acoustic space and the dimension of time in the visual arts on the one hand, and a redefinition of relationships between material and form in music on the other."--BOOK JACKET.
