“Both Klee and Kandinsky were musicians before they were painters….. all music has a visual aspect…..Even the design of a record cover can determine how we respond to the tracks within…….like For Your Pleasure by Roxy Music…all the tracks sound dark blue, deep black, with flashes of sliver coming to the surface…….The relationship between the visual and the musical is part of our cultural heritage. ” ~ Rita Says, 2016.
Doors 3:30 | performance 4pm | entry £5:00.
