The John Cage Trust furthers the legacy of late American composer John Cage by gathering together, organizing, preserving, and disseminating his work.
John Cage (1912–1992) is routinely hailed as one of the most influential and generative artists of the 20th century, a creator of groundbreaking music compositions, artworks, and works of literature. Cage’s life and work continue to expand how we might experience and think about music, art, poetry, performance, philosophy, and the ways we live our lives.
The John Cage Trust is guided at every step not so much by what Cage has done but, rather, by what Cage is doing now—through the work of others. The John Cage Trust ensures that Cage’s voice remains vibrant, and toward that presents, organizes, and collaborates on programs, performances, exhibitions, and scholarship.
Myriad histories, essays, and analyses of Cage’s life, work, and influences have been written. Cage wrote “An Autobiographical Statement” in 1990 that you can read here.
