Exhibiting Music (The Peculiar Case of Peter Ablinger)

Summary/Abstract: Peter Ablinger is a composer whose work is questioning basic assumptions about music as time-based performance-generated art form. Even though conceptually homogenous, his works are perplexing when observed through the traditional contexts of musical presentation. Most of the clues for their understanding come from the visual art’s presentation and reception habits. Ablinger’s art is raising a point about the necessity of critical reflection on the limitations of music’s traditional contextualizing and presentation forms. This text documents a curatorial process in presenting his works, taking into account the points of view of both music and visual arts presentation practice.
