Bill Fontana
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bill Fontana (born USA 1947) is known internationally for his pioneering experiments in sound. In a career spanning 30 years, Fontana’s self defined ‘sound sculptures’ use the urban environment as a living source of musical information, all with the potential to conjure up visual imagery in the mind of the listener. He has made works all over the world and has presented his sound sculptures extensively, including at the Venice Biennale, The Reina Sofia, Madrid, The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York and Tate Modern, London.
