“Seeing Sound is the first comprehensive monograph on the work of sound artist and composer Gordon Monahan, born 1956 in Kingston, Ontario. This trilingual book is published on the occasion of Monahan’s first retrospective exhibition. Organized by the The Robert McLaughlin Gallery in Oshawa, Ontario with six collaborating institutions from across Canada, the exhibition will be shown in eight Canadian venues, as well as at the singhur—hoergalerie in Berlin, Germany, from 2011 to 2013. Seeing Sound presents a richly illustrated, in-depth survey of Gordon Monahan’s installations, and documents his compositions, performances and major special projects within a series of individual chapters. Video documentations of selected works on the accompanying DVD complete the picture.”
