Feb. 9 DIFFERENT TRAINS

An important reminder of one of the greatest tragedies in human history, Different 
Trains, a large-scale video installation spanning nearly 25 feet, will occupy the 
Toledo Museum of Art’
s Canaday Gallery from Feb. 9 to May 5. The profoundly 
moving work about the Holocaust is both historically important and aesthetically 
impressive. The 29-minute film will run on a continuous loop and features the 
1988 musical score by American composer Steve Reich, recorded by the Kronos 
Quartet and visually reinterpreted by Spanish filmmaker Beatriz Caravaggio, who 
set Reich’
s score to an archival film montage that lends new depths and insights 
to the original musical composition. The exhibition also features a reflection space, 
which will contain information about the installation, transcripts of the voices heard 
in the melodies, and resources and additional reading about the Holocaust for 
audiences of different ages. Visit toledomuseum.org for hours.
