On View features images from notable exhibits
CONCEPTUAL WORKS by Jennie C.Jones offer a visual and sound experience. The Hudson, NY-based artist considers perceptions of sound through painting, sculpture and installation, works rooted in modernism and minimalism. “Jennie C. Jones: Dynamics,” her new solo exhibition at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, “addresses the objectivity of painting, sound as ephemeral content, and the graphic forms of musical notation.” Architectural felt and acoustic panels as well as a sound installation are on display. The new body of work was produced in direct response to the museum’s architecture designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. CT
“Jennie C. Jones: Dynamics” is on view at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, NY, from February 4 to May 2, 2022
