| 520 | _aThe MIT List Visual Arts Center will present Lewis deSoto: Recital, a new exhibition by the San Francisco-based artist that will open on Friday, October 9, 1998 with a reception in the galleries from 6 - 8 p.m. The exhibition will continue through December 27, and is presented concurrently with the List’s other fall exhibition, Matthias Mansen: About the House. As suggested by the title, the exhibition’s visual form will replicate an intimate concert space, and include a spotlit digital piano placed on a stage, in front of a velvet backdrop, with rows of chairs placed before it, where gallery visitors may sit and listen to the music the piano will play continuously. The inspiration for the exhibition is a book which deSoto came across by chance while browsing in a library, An Atlas of the Brain of a Pianist by Hideomi Tuge , a Japanese neurosurgeon. The book, published in 1975, concerns Tuge’s wife, pianist and composer Chiyo-Asaka Tuge. Chiyo Tuge died in 1969 of liver cancer, and before her death, Dr. Tuge obtained her permission to dissect her brain. Dr. Tuge was interested in discovering evidence of his wife’s musical talents in her brain’s structure, his thesis being that the density and distribution of neurological matter was different in creative people. Beyond this quasi-scientific purpose, however, the book is also an unconventional, but loving, monument to her memory, containing biographical information and reproductions of staves of music she wrote. DeSoto became fascinated with the Atlas and its implications: the explicit mingling of the subjective and objective, of art and science. | ||
