The recently re-discovered 'Chess Pieces' by John Cage is a work unique to Cage's oeuvre and indeed to twentieth-century music and art. In 1944, Cage created the painting, 'Chess Pieces', specifically for 'The Imagery of Chess' exhibition at the Julien Lev y Gallery in New York, a ground-breaking event organized by Levy, Max Ernst and marcel Duchamp during the winter of 1944-45. 'Chess Pieces stands at the confluences of John Cage's three primary life-long interests: music, visual arts and chess.' Margaret Leng Tan
