Whatness

Whatness is an audio gallery founded in 2000 with the aim of combining structures of the visual and musical arts. Such internationally renowned artists as Liam Gillick, Joseph Suchy, Frank Bretschneider, Stephen Galloway, Scott Ohlson, Markus Schmickler, Ekkehard Ehlers, Bill Forsythe, Olafur Eliasson and Peter Roehr present their own works as entirely autonomous artistic positions. The fusion of these positions in a project specially created for Whatness generates an expansion of the originamedia and explores the possibilities of an exchange between art and music by various means such as graphic notation, instrument making and vocal art. The respective collaborations are then published as a CD.
