Artist reception celebrating works by Marsha Levin-Rojer
Audience Open to the Public

Free and open to the public in Robertson Hall's Bernstein Gallery (lower level) on Jan. 9 at 6 p.m., this reception celebrates the gallery's latest exhibit: "Music Made Visible" by artist Marsha Levin-Rojer.

The exhibit is on view until Jan. 31. These events are held in conjunction with Princeton University Concerts' 125th anniversary, as well as the residency of Maestro Gustavo Dudamel, director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. A complementary panel will precede the reception at 4:30 p.m. in McCosh Hall. Learn more about the panel here: https://www.facebook.com/events/741611652880652/

For Dudamel, the power of music lies in its invisible beauty, “the fact that sound, vibration and harmony can create something in us.” It is this connection between the physical and spiritual worlds that inspires the artwork of Marsha Levin-Rojer. How can something invisible and ephemeral feel so concrete? How might we visually grasp the complexity of a musical composition? Using her background in mathematics to explore these connections, Levin-Rojer conceives these inherent relationships in terms of mappings and dissections, and she expresses them through drawings that incorporate a variety of media and sometimes move off the wall and into space.

Note: Due to construction in Robertson Hall, access to the Gallery will be limited to the Washington Road entrance as well as the tunnel from Bendheim Hall (the only ADA-accessible entrance).
