BMW and Frieze Sounds at the Frieze New York 2016 event: what should you know
As part of the Frieze New York International art fair for the fifth consecutive year, BMW Group proudly presented Fieze Sounds: the experimental sound installation program, available for BMW 7 Series VIP shuttle and the BMW 7 Series lounge. BMW will also host two art and design talks at the Soho House, as part of the scheduled events. Frieze New York will be held on Manhattan's Randall's Island from May 5 to 8, 2016.
Presented by Cecilia Alemani, Frieze Sounds expands the fair's artistic nature by activating visitors' experience by sounds. This year's program includes three specially commissioned audio works by artist Giorgio Andreotta Calò in collaboration with MADRIEMA, GCC and Liz Magic Laser. Furthermore, visitors will also have the chance to see how the whole system sounds inside Frieze's Reading Room, as well as in the BMW 7 Series lounge itself.
