Visitors to the Frieze London art fair in October enjoyed a foretaste of Anri Sala’s forthcoming solo show at New York’s New Museum next year. The Berlin-based, Albanian artist’s kinetic musical installation, which incorporates hand-painted human skulls and a snare drum, Still Life in the Doldrums (d’apres Cézanne) (2015), was on show with the Marian Goodman Gallery. The acoustics of real skulls are very different to plastic ones, he tells us, adding that any in his New Museum debut will be ethically sourced. He hopes that his multi-channel audio and video installations will acoustically “stretch” the museum’s gallery spaces, its three floors becoming a series of echo chambers. Anri Sala: Answer Me (3 February-10 April 2016) has been co-organised by Massimiliano Gioni, the museum’s artistic director, with its associate curator Margot Norton and assistant curator Natalie Bell.
