By JazzTimes

From Feb. 26-May 14, New York’s Whitney Museum of American Art
will present “Open Plan,” described in a press release as “an
experimental five-part exhibition using the Museum’s dramatic
fifth-floor as a single open gallery, unobstructed by interior walls.”
As part of the exhibition, from April 15–24, pianist Cecil Taylor will
take up residence in the fifth-floor gallery along with friends and
fellow performers. The residency, the press release further states,
“will feature a series of live performances amid a retrospective
environment that will include documentation of Taylor’s career,
including videos, audio, notational scores, photographs, poetry, and
other ephemera.”
