Figureworks is pleased to open this fall season with music! “Art and Music” have always been associated together and this exhibition embraces both.

For this exhibition, a number of artists were asked to take the theme of music and create a figure-based work of art. For some, it was a challenge to take audio to visual and many of these creations became wonderfully conceptual. One can almost hear music in these works. Others used the opportunity to portray a specific musician or instrument that provides inspiration to them while working in their studios.

These contemporary works are now showcased with a number of 20th century works to provide even greater reference to how music plays such an valuable and important role in our lives.

Adding to this exhibition, Figureworks will also host a number of live music venues. Please reference www.figureworks.com as additional performances will be added throughout the exhibition.
