BEYERLER MUSEUM BASEL, SWITZERLAND

Active Acoustics
Written By Ellie Sykes

For the opening of the Goya exhibition in the famous Beyerler museum in Basel, the artist Philippe Parreno approached AMADEUS for his new multimedia installation using advanced sound design concepts and film. His artwork, based on the Pinturas Negras by Goya, was displayed in a single exhibition room.

The multimedia installation is an art object and as such, specific requirements and effects desired by the artist had to be translated into the use of spatial 3D audio techniques and acoustic settings. The short timeframe for realization of the project added significant pressure as well since the museum was being prepared for the opening night.
