*Bilingual Edition English/German* Terry Fox, who since the 1960s radically rejected traditional art forms and sought new forms of artistic expression, has been increasingly concerned with investigating the seldom-observed energetic aspects of materials. Hence, sound gained a central significance in his works. The artist is dedicated to finding sounds that make energies palpable and connect the listener and his physical surroundings.
