Audio Tour for the Lawrence Weiner Retrospective

From an interview of Lawrence Weiner at artkrush, re- the retrospective of his work now on view at the Whitney:

"AK: The audio tour for the retrospective . . . doesn't provide the usual explanations of the works in the show — rather, it provides a soundtrack for viewing it. What is this audio compilation, and what do you hope it conveys to viewers?

"LW: IT IS A REMIX OF RECORDINGS THAT I HAVE MADE WITH MUSICIANS OVER TIME — AN AMBIENT SOUNDTRACK."

The show at the Whitney runs through February 10, then opens at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles on April 13.
