about

Gen Ken Montgomery is a New York-based artist whose involvement in the cassette-culture and mail-art movements of the late seventies led to the creation of Generations Unlimited with David Prescott and Conrad Schnitzler in 1987. In 1989, Montgomery opened the first sound art gallery in New York City: Generator. Generator’s wide scope and novel approach toward sound and music made it a vector-point for some of the most interesting artists from around the world. Generator re-incarnated at AVA gallery in 2013 (audiovisualarts.org/5973/generator) and in the Print Shop at MoMA PS1 in 2014. Montgomery re-launched Generations Unlimited in 2014.

After living in Berlin in 1985 and working with Conrad Schnitzler, Montgomery has composed and performed multi-speaker concerts using amplified appliances, field recordings and electronic instruments. Montgomery’s approach to creating listening spaces gives audiences a dramatic immersive audio experience, often performed in total darkness.

Montgomery also creates visual art using photography, clippings, debris and lamination to make books to make postcards. As the Minister of Lamination (a.k.a. Egnekn) Montgomery is the world’s foremost practitioner of sonic Lamination Rituals.

Montgomery’s music has been released on some of the most respected music labels in the world: Noise Below (Greece), Chocolate Monk and Touch (UK), VOD Records (Germany), Esplendor Geometrico, (Spain), Staalplaat and De Fabriek (The Netherlands), Firework Editions (Sweden), XV Parowek (Poland), Monovision (Russia) and XI Records, Banned Productions, GD Stereo, Pogus, and Tellus in the US.
