Bernhard Leitner: SOUNDSPACESCULPTURE

Look for

• Wasser Würfel / Wand Wellen

  Look for the monumental slatted cube in the main hall, where water sounds travel as short and long lines and waves through speakers strapped to PVC hoses.

• The Ton-Liege

  Lie down and the tones of two speakers, one at your chest and one at your feet, move through your body, what Leitner calls body hearing.

• Pulsierende Stille 2

  Three pairs of hanging metal plates with low frequencies you barely hear from outside; step between them and you feel the room throb.

• Klang-Strahlen

  Parabolic dishes fire beams of sound at metal reflectors, so you hear acoustic images on bare walls where there is no speaker at all.

• Sound beams in the Beethoven Frieze room

  Leitner installed a parabolic dish in the room of Klimt's frieze that throws four sharp beams of tone up at the ceiling and into the space.

Good for

• Going Solo
• Locals Who've Seen It All
• Nerding Out

Skip if

You want things to look at: these works are made to be heard and felt more than seen.
