The relationship of art and sound as co-conspirators is centuries old. The influence that each exerts on the other is undeniable. It can be found in countless cultures throughout history,from the recurring motif of musicians in medieval folk art to Jacob Lawrence’s heavily blues-influenced series The Great Migration to Ornette Coleman’s choice of a Jackson Pollock painting as the cover art for his 1960 album “Free Jazz.” Like bread and butter, art and music complement each other perfectly as sounds, words, and images bubble over into one another. The first installment of Super Ten aims to share in this grand tradition by inviting ten artists to create ten works each, all inspired by songs. We were thrilled to get in the sandbox and experiment with all the possibilities that music creates for art, and we hope this project will inspire the viewer as well…..Text by Carl Gambrell
