Description
From the archives vol. 13, released by Counter Culture Chronicles, gathers rare recordings from key figures such as Lawrence Weiner, Ulises Carrión, Michael Gibbs, and others. This collection traces the porous boundaries between conceptual art and sound, where language, gesture, and environment intersect in works both fleeting and resonant.
With From the archives vol. 13, Counter Culture Chronicles continues its excavation of overlooked and ephemeral sound works from the conceptual art milieu. This volume assembles recordings by Lawrence Weiner, Ulises Carrión, Michael Gibbs, John Baldessari, herman de vries, Jacob van Donselaer, Terry Fox, Maurizio Nannucci, Marinus Boezem, Hamish Fulton, and Georg Winter. Each artist extends the possibilities of sound as material, whether through spoken word, minimal interventions, or conceptual gestures that hover between the audible and the imagined.
Rather than a traditional compilation, the release functions as a collective document of practices that redefined the relationship between art and sound in the latter half of the 20th century. The pieces presented here embody a range of strategies: the taut precision of Weiner’s language-based constructions, Carrión’s playful subversions of form, Baldessari’s wry performativity, and Fox’s meditative listening experiments.
From the archives vol. 13 preserves fragile traces otherwise consigned to private recordings, underscoring the cross-disciplinary energy of a generation more concerned with ideas than categories. By making these works accessible again, Counter Culture Chronicles confirms the enduring relevance of artists who approached sound not as music or text alone, but as an unstable, vital field of thought and experience.
