1. A new installation by Janet

FRESCO CHAPEL. The married couple has collaborated artistically since the 1980s and are known

for their immersive, environmentally scaled works incorporating sound and video. This specific
work was commissioned by the Menil Collection for the space and will be the couple’s first mobile.
Suspended from the high ceiling, the rotating work will incorporate a variety of objects including
a fan, antique model airplane and glass globes. There are also illuminated elements and a sound
collage incorporating new recordings on interactions of solar winds with the earth’s ionosphere
