    Sight and Sound consists of selected paintings and sculptures from the museum's permanent collection that provide a glimpse of the simultaneous revolutions in art and music that occurred during the twentieth century. Viewers can experience art with the added enhancement of music to gain an understanding of the liberation from traditional forms that transformed both modern art and culture. Located in two major galleries of the museum, this exhibition features listening posts where visitors can hear selections of works by twentieth-century composers such as Edgard Varese, Luciano Berio, John Cage, George Antheil and Terry Riley. These selections were chosen by musicologist Eric Smigel to demonstrate the new ideas of space, time and the depiction of the new world of technology in art and music.
