The Anarchy of Silence. Untill January 10, 2010

“He’s not a composer, but an inventor of genius”. – said Arnold Schönberg of his pupil, John Cage. You can judge for yourself this winter as the MACBA
presents the largest exhibition devoted to the composer since his death.

The Anarchy of Silence – John Cage and Experimental Art is also the first exhibition to place Cage’s work within the context of the history of music and the visual and dramatic arts. Installations, lectures, concerts and film and video screenings
trace Cage’s twisting, turning and ultimately triumphant trajectory from the 30’s until his death in 1982 stopping along the way to call on pupils such as Duchamp and Warhol.

Winter opening hours:
Weekdays: 11.00 to 19.30, Saturdays: 10.00 to 20.00, Sundays and holidays 10.00h to 15.00h. Closed: Tuesdays, December 25 and January 1.
