The Piano in Paintings
This week we look at some more famous artworks featuring the – piano. The piano has long been a muse for painters. From 19th-century bourgeois salons to Cubist deconstructions and Surrealist dreams, this instrument has found itself at the center of artistic exploration time and again: in a private salon painted by Renoir; Matisse’s abstracted wartime meditation; Magritte’s wife sat at one; and Dali’s vision featuring a melted one along with Richard Wagner and a mysterious monarch lurking beneath. We’ll hear music by Debussy, Chopin, Satie and Wagner.

In this episode we continue our look at Czech artist Frantisek Kupka (1871-1957) and how music influenced his works. The relationship between music and painting became increasingly important to Kupka throughout his career. He drew parallels between the processes of creating music and art, naming a number of his paintings after compositional techniques. He also used music to directly inspire his work, visualizing the rhythms and tones that he heard.
