Opening of \u201cTv\u00eds\u00f6ngur<\/strong>\u201d by Lukas K\u00fchne<\/a> \u201cTv\u00eds\u00f6ngur\u201d is built of concrete and consists of five interconnected domes of different sizes. The heights of the domes are between 2 and 4 meters and they cover an area of about 30 square meters. Each dome has its own resonance that corresponds to a tone in the Icelandic musical tradition of five-tone harmony, and works as a natural amplifier to that tone.<\/p>\n The sculpture can be seen as a visualization of the five-tone harmony tradition. The round form is chosen for its acoustic properties as well as its visual function in the landscape. It results in a unique combination affecting visual and auditory senses. The Icelandic \u201cTvis\u00f6ngur\u201c becomes a sculpture of \u201csinging concrete\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cTv\u00eds\u00f6ngur\u201d is is open to everyone. It is embedded in the mountainside above the town, in a quiet area with a breathtaking view of the fjord. It offers an acoustic sensation that can be explored and experimented with by the visitor.\u00a0 The site\u2019s solitude and tranquility offers a perfect setting for singing or music playing, alone, in harmony, for ones own pleasure or for an audience.<\/p>\n At the opening in Sey\u00f0isfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur there will be performances by local musicians, both professionals and amateurs, and guests are encouraged to bring their own version of five tone singing.<\/p>\n Lukas K\u00fchne\u2019s artworks are dedicated to space and frequency. He lives in Berlin and Montevideo, Uruguay, where he heads the workshop \u201dForm and Sound\u201d at the Faculty of Arts of the State University.\u00a0 The sculpture \u201cTv\u00eds\u00f6ngur\u201d relates to a series of works by the artist dealing with musical forms, one of which is the sculpture \u201cCromatico<\/a>\u201d built in Tallinn, Estonia as part of Tuned City Tallinn 2011.<\/p>\n Tv\u00eds\u00f6ngur is realized in cooperation with Skaftell \u2013 Center for Visual Art,\u00a0 East Iceland.
