Arnold Dreyblatt

Arnold Dreyblatt is an American composer, performance artist and visual artist from the second generation of New York minimal composers. His musical compositions are usually based on just intonation harmonics that he performs by a bowing technique he developed for his modified double bass and other modified and conventional instruments which he specially tunes. In his installations, performances and media works, Dreyblatt creates complex textual and spatial metaphors for memory which serves as a media discourse on recollection and the archive. His installations, public artworks and performances have been exhibited and staged extensively in Europe.
