CHARTA is a series of four group exhibitions curated and organized by Jan-Philipp Frühsorge and Stephan Klee under the umbrella of frontviews. The series brings together artists from the Berlin area, whose main medium is drawing, and who each work on common themes in the field of drawing. CHARTA #4 - Sound and Order In this exhibition, we explore drawing as an individually structured system and process in interplay with sound and music. William Engelen, Carsten Nicolai, and Chiyoko Szlavnics, as composers, play equally with sounds and drawings, exploring visual art through the lens, or speaker, of musical composition. Gregor Hildebrandt, Nicole Wendel, and Jorinde Voigt, whose main form of expression is not necessarily instrumentally generated music per se, use music and sound either in a very direct way through the used material or soundscapes created in drawing processes. Jorinde Voigt, for example, is an outstanding pioneer in this field of contemporary drawing.
