Working Papers,
Exhibition, "Gelbe Music" Berlin, 2006-2007
'The first exhibition at my newly established gallery and record store
GELBE MUSIK, opening December 11, 1981, was devoted to scores. The show offered
a rather broad view to the idea of scores and musical notation. In doing so.
I followed John Cage's approach of presenting different forms of musical scores
in his book Notations, published in 1969.Cage's collection contains traditional
scores as well as examples of "open forms", like graphic notation,
verbal scores and performance instructions. A piece of string with knots, which
Terry Fox had used in several of his performances, was probably one of the most
uncommon scores in that first show.
"On December 11, 2006, we celebrate our 25th anniversary, and on this occasion,
we are happy to present a selection of
Arnold Dreyblatt' s Working Papers.' - Ursula Block
