Opening Reception | John Zorn Live Concert: New Masada Quartet


The exhibition John Zorn: Hermetic Cartography will be accompanied by a series of musical performances curated by Zorn that will be held in the exhibition. For this performance by New Masada Quartet, Zorn will be joined by Julian Lage (guitar), Jorge Roeder (bass) and Kenny Wollesen (drums). Known predominantly as a groundbreaking figure in New York’s avant-garde and experimental music scenes, John Zorn has long been celebrated for his radical innovations in music. However, his abstract drawings—a private language of symbols and notations—have remained a closely guarded secret. Offering profound insight into Zorn’s creative mind, Hermetic Cartography reveals a new dimension of his artistic practice by showcasing works on paper that span seven decades of his visionary engagement with mark-making, improvisation, and the esoteric.
