Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Abadia de Santo Domingo de Silos10.3.-3.9.2009. 185:132mm. 58S. + 6 doppelseitig illustr. Tafeln. + 1 Abb. (3 farb.). Brosch. Texte Engl. Vorwort von ngeles Gonzlez-Sinde und Manuel J. Borja-Villel. Texte von Lynne Cooke, David Toop, Lytle Shaw und Susan Philipsz. "Turner Prize winner, Susan Philipsz creates atmosphere using sound, with which she proves her inherent ability to define the architecture. The title of the exhibition Appear to Me ( Hazte ver )corresponds to a song whose melody belongs to the Gregorian chant "Salve Regina" (Hail Holy Queen) recorded in the voice of the artist herself. The lyrics refer instead to another song titled 'M'appari' (Appear to me), a starting point for the work that is found in the recording that the artist made from the Gregorian chants of the monks during her first visit to the Monastery of Silos, an emblematic place for this type of song. The different rising evolutions of the Gregorian melody evoke for Philipsz the serene flight of vultures that the artist crossed on her way to the monastery, as well as the birds that inhabit the famous cloister cypress and the many winged animals and monsters that are represented in the Romanesque reliefs. Integrated into this removed setting, a place dedicated to inner life, meditation and reflection, Philipsz's work provokes emotion in the viewer, inviting them to explore and reflect on the search for meaning and self-consciousness regarding their surroundings.".
