The Asheville Art Museum and the Asheville School have partnered for a special event to help visitors more fully appreciate a unique interaction of multiple forms of art. It will be free with membership or Museum admission. In a special performance at 3 p.m. on Sunday, May 3, Asheville School students will offer original spoken word, dance, music, and gestural drawing. They will present Johann Sebastian Bach’s classical “Trio in G.” This special performance is designed to show how art can inspire art. The event, titled Bach to Bach: An Overlapping of Movements, will take place in two of the Asheville Art Museum’s most popular installations: Community by artist Sharon Louden, which visually serves as a community of forms interacting with each other, and Creating Place, one of more than 600 wall drawings conceived by the artist Sol LeWitt.
