<div><font size=3 color=black>Harry Bertoia's “Sonambient” sculptures are renowned for their meditative qualities, inviting viewers into a serene and contemplative state. Among the five “Sonambients” in our exhibition, even this most petite sculpture stands out with its remarkable sonic capabilities. This work, with its 64 tines, each capped with long, slender finials, produces a high-timbered sonority that is surprisingly robust. The delicate yet powerful sound offers an auditory experience that encourages reflection and heightened awareness.</font></div><br><br><div><font size=3> </font></div><br><br><div><font size=3 color=black>A pivotal aspect of the “Sonambient” sculptures' evolution was the involvement of Bertoia's brother, Oreste, whose expertise as a musician enabled him to help Harry reconceptualize these sculptures, not just as visual or kinetic art but as instruments capable of producing an immersive soundscape. This collaboration highlighted the interdisciplinary nature of Bertoia's work, merging the worlds of sculpture and music. Experimenting with rods and tines of different metals, varying in length and thickness, he discovered a wide range of tones and textural droning sounds. Exhilarated by their ethereal, otherworldly resonance and his brother's encouragement, Bertoia filled his historic barn in Bally, Pennsylvania, with more than sixty “Sonambient” sculptures. It became a kind of orchestral studio and laboratory where he recorded albums and held concerts, and the once lowly barn became a hallowed place—a chapel of sorts—where visitors experienced it as a pilgrimage and a place of profound inspiration and meditation.</font></div>

مجموعه خاصه
تشتهر منحوتات هاري بيرتويا "سونامبينت" بخصائصها التأملية التي تدعو المشاهدين إلى حالة من الهدوء والتأمل. ومن بين المنحوتات "السونامبية" الخمس في معرضنا، تبرز هذه المنحوتة الأكثر صغراً بقدراتها الصوتية الرائعة. يُنتج هذا العمل، الذي يحتوي على 64 سنّاً، كل منها مغطى بزعانف طويلة ونحيلة، صوتاً عالي النغمات قوي بشكل مدهش. ويوفر الصوت الرقيق والقوي في نفس الوقت تجربة سمعية تشجع على التأمل وزيادة الوعي.





ومن الجوانب المحورية في تطور منحوتات "سونامبينت" مشاركة شقيق بيرتويا "أوريست" الذي مكنته خبرته كموسيقي من مساعدة هاري في إعادة تصور هذه المنحوتات، ليس فقط كفن بصري أو حركي ولكن كأدوات قادرة على إنتاج مشهد صوتي غامر. سلّط هذا التعاون الضوء على الطبيعة متعددة التخصصات لعمل بيرتويا الذي يدمج بين عالمي النحت والموسيقى. ومن خلال تجريب قضبان وأسنان من معادن مختلفة، متفاوتة في الطول والسماكة، اكتشف مجموعة واسعة من النغمات والأصوات الرنانة ذات التركيبات المختلفة. ملأ بيرتويا حظيرته التاريخية في بالي بولاية بنسلفانيا بأكثر من ستين منحوتة "سونامبينت" بعد أن أبهره رنينها الأثيري والغريب وتشجيع أخيه له. وأصبحت نوعًا من الاستوديو والمختبر الأوركسترالي حيث سجل ألبوماته وأقام حفلات موسيقية، وأصبحت الحظيرة التي كانت متواضعة في يوم من الأيام مكانًا مقدسًا - كنيسة صغيرة من نوع ما - حيث كان الزوار يعتبرونها محجًا ومكانًا للإلهام والتأمل العميق.
