hiphop for everFrom October 26, 2001 through March 3, 2002, the Bronx Museum of the Arts will present "One Planet Under a Groove: Hip Hop and Contemporary Art." The first exhibition to examine the impact of hip-hop culture on contemporary visual art, it will feature the work of 30 visual artists based in the U. S., Latin America, Europe, and Japan, including more than 60 works of paintings, sculpture, drawings, photographs, installations, and videos. All pieces were created in the past 20 years by artists who have been influenced by hip-hop music and its culture. Prominent artists in the exhibition include Jean-Michel Basquiat, David Hammons, Keith Haring, Chris Ofili, Adrian Piper, and Gary Simmons. Although graffiti art, DJing, rapping, and breakdancing have all received popular and critical attention, "One Planet Under a Groove" is the first exhibition devoted to visual artists whose work is informed by elements of hip-hop culture.
