SeeÂing Sounds
What if you could also see music? In the exhibition Seeing Sounds at the van Bommel van Dam museum, you will discover the work of four artists from different generations for whom music is more than a subject: it is a way to imagine freedom.Yet something remains unseen until you listen. Take a seat at one of the vinyl stations, browse, choose, listen, and experience how music changes your view on the artworks of Raafat Ballan, Sedje Hémon, Sam Middleton, and Dion Rosina. An invitation to look with both eyes and ears!
