In 2010 Juliana Engberg, Artistic Director, ACCA, was engaged to assist in developing the artistic vision for GASP! After considering the qualities of the site and ambitions of the project Juliana proposed Susan Philipsz who following her Turner Prize win undertook an exploratory site visit of GASP! in 2011.

Now, in January 2013 Susan’s newest art project, and first part of the GASP! art collection, will be launched during MONA FOMA on the award winning GASP! Boardwalk. Join us to hear how Susan’s work explores the relationship between sound and architecture and between listening and our understanding of location.
