SUMMARY:Close to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture
DESCRIPTION:Close to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture explores the multidimensional influence of hip-hop on our urban fabric.\nCurated and designed by Sekou Cooke\, and jointly presented by SoCalNOMA\, the A+D Museum\, and Helms Bakery District\, this dynamic exhibition dives into the rich and vibrant world of hip-hop\, from its fundamental elements of emceeing\, b-boying\, and graffiti\, to its influence on the world of design and architecture.\nThe exhibition shows how hip-hop has been translated into the creation of innovative spaces and structures\, effectively introducing a new narrative in architecture. The works on display include groundbreaking contributions from students\, academics\, and practitioners\, ranging from experimental visualizations and innovative installations to façade studies and urban development proposals. Also on show: a wall newly graffitied by Los Angeles artist Prime. \nClose to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture is more than an exhibition. It’s a journey into a revolutionary design movement\, revealing a shared vision for the future of architecture that’s deeply rooted in the core ethos of hip hop: identity\, process\, and aesthetics. \nClose to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture opens on June 22\, with an opening reception on June 24th from 6 pm to 9 pm. It will be accompanied by talks and tours presented by SoCal NOMA\, A+D Museum\, and Helms Bakery District. \nCurator: Sekou Cooke\nExhibition Design: Sekou Cooke\nGraffiti Artist: Prime \nArtwork above: HHA Signifyin’ project by Nate Williams\, 1993. \n\nThe exhibition is free and open to the public. \n8707 Washington Blvd\, Culver City CA 90232 \nExhibition Dates: June 22 – September 17\nHours: Thursday – Sunday 12:00 pm – 6:00 pm \n\n		\n	 \n \n	\n		\n			RSVP HERE\n		\n	 \n \n\n \n	\n		Close to the Edge Exhibition at SpringBox in St.Paul\, MN.\n		\n	 \n \n	\n		Close to the Edge exhibition at Center for Architecture\, New York\, NY.

SUMMARY:Close to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture
DESCRIPTION:Close to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture explores the multidimensional influence of hip-hop on our urban fabric.\nCurated and designed by Sekou Cooke\, and jointly presented by SoCalNOMA\, the A+D Museum\, and Helms Bakery District\, this dynamic exhibition dives into the rich and vibrant world of hip-hop\, from its fundamental elements of emceeing\, b-boying\, and graffiti\, to its influence on the world of design and architecture.\nThe exhibition shows how hip-hop has been translated into the creation of innovative spaces and structures\, effectively introducing a new narrative in architecture. The works on display include groundbreaking contributions from students\, academics\, and practitioners\, ranging from experimental visualizations and innovative installations to façade studies and urban development proposals. Also on show: a wall newly graffitied by Los Angeles artist Prime. \nClose to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture is more than an exhibition. It’s a journey into a revolutionary design movement\, revealing a shared vision for the future of architecture that’s deeply rooted in the core ethos of hip hop: identity\, process\, and aesthetics. \nClose to the Edge: The Birth of Hip-Hop Architecture opens on June 22\, with an opening reception on June 24th from 6 pm to 9 pm. It will be accompanied by talks and tours presented by SoCal NOMA\, A+D Museum\, and Helms Bakery District. \nCurator: Sekou Cooke\nExhibition Design: Sekou Cooke\nGraffiti Artist: Prime \nArtwork above: HHA Signifyin’ project by Nate Williams\, 1993. \n\nThe exhibition is free and open to the public. \n8707 Washington Blvd\, Culver City CA 90232 \nExhibition Dates: June 22 – September 17\nHours: Thursday – Sunday 12:00 pm – 6:00 pm \n\n		\n	 \n \n	\n		\n			RSVP HERE\n		\n	 \n \n\n \n	\n		Close to the Edge Exhibition at SpringBox in St.Paul\, MN.\n		\n	 \n \n	\n		Close to the Edge exhibition at Center for Architecture\, New York\, NY.

SUMMARY:Book Signing with Photographer Jerry Hsu
DESCRIPTION:Join Arcana: Books on the Arts for a book signing with photographer Jerry Hsu. \nWith a history encompassing professional skateboarding and his apparel brand Sci Fi-Fantasy\, Jerry Hsu’s photography practice is one of deep observation\, humor\, and everyday pathos. His new book Lonley City (Friend Editions\, 2023) is filled with iPhone photos taken while going about his life in the world – yet he seems to come across (or be more attuned to noticing) small moments that almost read as very short stories on the human condition. \nDue to the very limited supply of Lonley City\, Arcana is certain to sell out during Saturday’s signing\, so they will unfortunately be unable to accommodate advance orders via their website or phone as they typically do. Sales will be only at the event – strictly one copy per person\, first-come\, first-served. If you cannot attend\, and Arcana should miraculously have some left over\, please email Arcana to be put on a waiting list.
