In the field of "acoustics" and "space" Terry Fox has also made a significant contribution, quite distinct from that of other endeavors in the visual art, especially those of the Fluxus movement.

Terry Fox works with acoustics as resonance, as sound produced by the space within which the resonance occurs. The space becomes a sounding box in which he appears merely as a catalyst for the sounds. Thus he makes the spatial features of resonance and sound visible, on the one hand, while, on the other, transforming space itself with acoustic devices.

His material, physical intervention serves only to assist in the creation of these space instruments or spaces as instrument. His person, his body recedes more into the background than in earlier performances. The spaces are given voice and replace the actor telling his story.

Thus Terry Fox still remains well within the bounds of the visual arts while opening them up to a vast field-acoustics as a spatial dimension. His work can, of course, also be seen in the light of musical development, though only if it is understood as a rejection of music in the frame of a work with acoustics.

In this context, his work is revolutionary as well, since it does not reverse John Cage's slogan, "any sound is music", but turns it upside down. Not "all music is sound"; instead, the entire range of sound as such is not merely music.

The installation linkage and the accompanying disc pressed here in Lucerne present an optimally record of Terry Fox's acoustic work in the exhibition at the Kunstmuseum Lucerne...by Martin Kunz.
