Sound and vision: artists take to the decks for Peter Doig’s Serpentine show
Peter Doig's exhibition 'House of Music' at Serpentine South in London features his paintings alongside a restored Western Electric/Bell Labs sound system from the late 1920s, salvaged from UK cinemas. The show includes works like 'Maracas' (2002-08), inspired by a memory of a sound system in Trinidad, and 'Music of the Future' (2002-07). A series of live Sunday events called 'Sound Service' activates the sound system, with Doig, Ed Ruscha, Arthur Jafa, and Linton Kwesi Johnson among those playing records.
