Morton Feldman

Morton Feldman, "Rothko Chapel" (1971)

Part 4

I have been looking at Morton Feldman's work this week as tom recommended it. Feldman, unlike Cage didn't embrace the newer music technologies that were available at the time opting instead to use traditional instruments. He was interested in Colour Field painting and The New York School of artists and probably shared more of an affinity with visual arts than Cage did.

His work is certainly in need of more investigation, but my time is running out so I will have to do that another time!
