Opening Wednesday, February 12th, at 7PM
The Gray Center’s experimental music series, Gray Sound, begins its 6th season with a performance on Wednesday, February 12 by Micah Schippa-Wildfong.
Micah Schippa-Wildfong is an artist, writer, and musician based in Chicago. They have recently shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago (Descending the Staircase, currently on view); Romance, Pittsburgh (all fish in the night become birds); and Pech, Vienna (In Another Room I Am Drinking Eggs from a Boot).
For the second year running, Gray Sound is curated by Andrew Stock. Stock is a composer and artist with focus areas in experimental music, conceptual art, and Black studies. He makes work in concert and installative formats alongside other media or contexts (e.g. performance art, text, curation), and teaches both as a PhD candidate (University of Chicago) and as a guest artist at other institutions (Yale, Stanford, Connecticut College, Webster University).
About Gray Sound
Founded in 2019 by Gray Center Director and UChicago Associate Professor of Music and the Humanities, Seth Brodsky, Gray Sound was envisioned as an ongoing performance and discussion series that represents a chance for artists and the broader community to tease the boundaries of sound—when it moves from voice to music, recognizable tune to noise, experience to idea.
