The historical connection between visual art and music is inescapable.

In grade school it is common for young students to be asked to paint, be it finger painting or watercolors to an accompanying soundtrack of classical music. The correlation between musical tones and color is a natural relationship. Conversely, many musicians started as visual artists and moved their primary discipline to music.

Open For The Stones uses local artists as well as those with national and international standing to explore these symbiotic relationships. The exhibition is comprised of paintings, photography, sculpture and installations. Another aspect of the exhibition is merchandise comprised of vinyl LPs and CDs of work released by the exhibiting artists.

This is the third volume of an exhibition that premiered at Keyes Projects NYC in 2011 and moved in 2012 to Harpers in East Hampton as an expanded installation.

This exhibition is dedicated to musician and artist Bobby Whitlock. 1948-2025
