feature: multimedia exhibition ‘black magic: afropasts/afrofutures’ now showing at corridor gallery in brooklyn
‘Black Magic: AfroPasts/AfroFutures’ is a multimedia exhibition currently on display at Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation’ Corridor Gallery that was curated by Niama Safia Sandy. The show is a collection of afrofuturist-themed works by artists such as Roger Bonair-Agard, Arnold Butler, Adama Delphine Fawundu, Charles Jean-Pierre, OddKinCreate, and DJ Underdog. DJ Underdog is a multi–talented artist and musician—maybe you’ve heard his music. But when he’s not making tunes, he’s making afro-futurist, surrealist and glitch art editing. Check out the pictures below to preview them.
If you’re in the Brooklyn area, stop by Corridor Gallery now through May 22nd to see the exhibition. Special artist talk on May 15. DJ Underdog will be performing at No Cuervo No Cinco. Jose Cuervo and AFROPUNK Presents: Live performances by SZA, DJ Moma, DJ Kitty Cash, and DJ Lindsey 5/5. Watch the live stream on www.facebook.com/afropunk at 10 p.m.
