ENGELEN, WILLIAM - Today, The Organ Has Played Beautifully Again
"William Engelen (born 1964 in Weert, The Netherlands) is a sound and visual artist living and working in Berlin. After having studied visual arts, his focus shifted over time from solely visual to multi-disciplinary works that oscillate between sound and visual arts, between exhibition and performance, and incorporate installation, sculptural, and compositional elements. He now considers himself a conceptual artist who works with sound. Many of his works are site-specific and have been presented and performed in museums, galleries, concert halls, private apartments, parks, urban spaces, amongst others. Unlike other sound artists, Engelen does not primarily try to make a space sound, but rather develops works that resonate and reflect the specific surroundings where they are presented. Today, The Organ Has Played Beautifully Again (2018) is Engelen's second LP release after Partitur Belval in 2016. The piece was written for his solo exhibition "Heute Hat Die Orgel Wieder Schön Gespielt
