GNOMUS is an animated piece commissioned by the New World Symphony to be projected and synced with a live orchestral performance of Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. It was designed specifically for the New World Center’s five sail-like screens. The New World Center opened in Miami FL at the end of January 2011 and is the newest building by architect Frank Gehry. Gnomus, along with the other 13 animated movements of Pictures at an Exhibition, was projected and performed at the Grand Opening Gala event.
